Contrast Data Mining: Concepts, Algorithms, and Applications

One of the first on contrast data mining, this reference focuses on concepts and algorithms for contrast data mining and techniques for applying it to other data mining problems. The book covers various interesting and useful contrast patterns and models, along with relevant algorithms, techniques for solving data mining problems, and approaches for applying contrast mining to solve scientific and medical problems. It explores drift mining in stream data, contrast pattern mining for temporal data, contrast pattern mining in the presence of extremely high dimensionality, and contrasting data sets using classifiers and other contrasting models.
