With extensive introductions, formal and mathematical developments and real case studies, this book provides readers with a deeper understanding of the mutual relationships between these methods, which are clearly expressed with respect to three facets: logical, combinatorial and statistical.
Using relational mathematical representation, all types of data structures can be handled in precise and unified ways which the author highlights in three stages:
Tools for interpreting the reasons of a given cluster or clustering are also included.
Foundations and Methods in Combinatorial and Statistical Data Analysis and Clustering will be a valuable resource for students and researchers who are interested in the areas of Data Analysis, Clustering, Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery.
