Product Review
Is your organization storing huge quantities of data that could be useful--but you don't know where to start? Do you have information about customers, distributors, markets, and competitors that you are not using to full advantage? And are you personally more interested in strategic applications and general overviews than mind-numbing equations and printouts of code?
If so, Data Mining with Neural Networks is the book for you. Written for a business audience, it explains how your company can mine a vast amount of data and transform it into strategic action. Highly Recommended for any company that wants to develop sound plans based on powerful quantitatitive and analytical methods.
Wall Street Journal
Data mining is enabling businesses and consumer marketers to improve distribution, specialize direct mail targets, and develop a new outlook on consumer behavior.
Customer Reviews & Comments
The cover of this book clearly states that it is intended for "Solving Business Problems - from Application Development to Decision Support". The back of the book states that it is a "practical, accessible guide for business executives..." This is not a book for developers unless they are just getting started and have never heard of neural nets or data mining. I found this little book helpful for providing easy-to-understand reviews for beginning AI students and non-technical business people. Some of the other reviewers of this book are unfairly slamming this book for not being technical enough, when clearly that is not the intention of the book. There are no formulae in this book, but there are some nice diagrams that get the point across for beginners. The chapter on agents seemed a little misplaced, but otherwise, for learning about neural nets, this is not a bad book. For a pure biz-oriented "intro to data mining" I prefer the Adriaans book, however.
