About this title

Synopsis:

As the applications of data mining, the non-trivial extraction of implicit information in a data set, have expanded in recent years, so has the need for techniques that are tolerable to imprecision, uncertainty, and approximation. Intelligent Soft Computation and Evolving Data Mining: Integrating Advanced Technologies is a compendium that addresses this need. It integrates contrasting techniques of conventional hard computing and soft computing to exploit the tolerance for imprecision, uncertainty, partial truth, and approximation to achieve tractability, robustness and low-cost solution. This book provides a reference to researchers, practitioners, and students in both soft computing and data mining communities, forming a foundation for the development of the field.
