商品描述

Cluster analysis is used in data mining and is a common technique for statistical data analysis used in many fields of study, such as the medical & life sciences, behavioral & social sciences, engineering, and in computer science. Designed for training industry professionals or for a course on clustering and classification, it can also be used as a companion text for applied statistics. No previous experience in clustering or data mining is assumed. Informal algorithms for clustering data and interpreting results are emphasized. In order to evaluate the results of clustering and to explore data, graphical methods and data structures are used for representing data. Throughout the text, examples and references are provided, in order to enable the material to be comprehensible for a diverse audience. A companion disc includes numerous appendices with programs, data, charts, solutions, etc.

FEATURES

*Places emphasis on illustrating the underlying logic in making decisions during the cluster analysis

*Discusses the related applications of statistic, e.g., Ward’s method (ANOVA), JAN (regression analysis & correlational analysis), cluster validation (hypothesis testing, goodness-of-fit, Monte Carlo simulation, etc.)

*Contains separate chapters on JAN and the clustering of categorical data

*Includes a companion disc with solutions to exercises, programs, data sets, charts, etc.




商品描述(中文翻譯)

叢集分析是數據挖掘中的一種技術,也是統計數據分析中常見的技術,廣泛應用於許多研究領域,如醫學與生命科學、行為與社會科學、工程學以及計算機科學。這本書旨在培訓行業專業人士或作為叢集與分類課程的教材,也可作為應用統計的輔助讀物。書中不假設讀者具備叢集或數據挖掘的先前經驗,強調非正式的叢集數據算法及結果解釋。為了評估叢集結果並探索數據,使用圖形方法和數據結構來表示數據。全書提供了範例和參考資料,以便使內容對不同背景的讀者都能理解。隨書附有光碟,包含多個附錄,包括程式、數據、圖表、解答等。

特色

* 強調在叢集分析過程中做出決策的基本邏輯
* 討論統計的相關應用,例如,Ward 方法(ANOVA)、JAN(迴歸分析與相關分析)、叢集驗證(假設檢定、適合度檢定、蒙地卡羅模擬等)
* 包含有關JAN和類別數據叢集的獨立章節
* 附有光碟,提供練習解答、程式、數據集、圖表等
