TY - GEN AU - Eldén ,Lars TI - Matrix methods in data mining and pattern recognition SN - 9780898716269 U1 - 005.74 PY - 2007/// CY - Philadelphia PB - Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics KW - Algebras, Linear KW - Data mining KW - Pattern recognition systems KW - Mathematical models N1 - Includes bibliographical references and index N2 - Several very powerful numerical linear algebra techniques are available for solving problems in data mining and pattern recognition. This application-oriented book describes how modern matrix methods can be used to solve these problems, gives an introduction to matrix theory and decompositions, and provides students with a set of tools that can be modified for a particular application." "The book is intended for undergraduate students who have previously taken an introductory scientific computing/​numerical analysis course. Graduate students in various data mining and pattern recognition areas who need an introduction to linear algebra techniques will also find the book useful ER -
