Pattern Recognition: Concepts, Methods and Applications

From the reviews of the first edition: "The book gives an overview about the wide field of pattern recognition. a ] The book is primarily addressed to undergraduate and graduate students of engineering and computer science courses. It gives a good introduction into the field of clustering and pattern recognition." (Hans-Peter Altenburg, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1009, 2003) "a ~Patern Recognitiona (TM) presents methods and techniques that are suitable for practical application in areas including robot assisted manufacture, medical diagnostic systems, forecast of economic variables, exploration of Eartha (TM)s resources, and satellite data analysis. a ] This book provides comprehensive, non-specialist coverage of pattern recognition. Although primarily aimed at undergraduate and graduate engineering and computer science students, its clear and practical coverage also makes it suitable for physicians, biologists, geologists and economists."
