Data Mining Algorithms - Explained Using R by Pawet Cichosz (Wiley, 2015)

Data mining has been a rapidly growing field of research and practical applications during the last two decades. From a somewhat niche academic area at the intersection of machine learning and statistics it has developed into an established scientific discipline and a highly valued branch of the computing industry. This is reflected by data mining becoming an essential part of computer science education as well as the increasing overall awareness of the term “data mining” among the general (not just computing-related) academic and business audience.
