Customer Reviews:
Adequate, but not spectacular; definitely for practitioners
By James "QA76" - June 2, 2010This book is for practitioners, not for those seeking a deeper understanding of data mining. It both makes and delivers on that claim. All major data mining topics are covered, though in a necessarily shallow manner in keeping with the book's goal of getting past the theory and moving to the practice.
Oddly, the very start of the book does have a bit of theory in the form of the historical roots of statistics and the limitations of statistics that leads to the need for data mining; I found this bit of history quite fascinating and enlightening; it is something I've found in few other data mining books, and I've read several.
The trouble is, I do like theory a bit. I have a master's in computer science, so I'm a bit biased that way, thus my relatively low scoring of the work.
About 1/3rd of the book is dedicated to working through real problems, and that is the overwhelming strength of the book. If you are one who learns by doing rather than by... read more
The top data mining text on the market
By Joseph Hilbe - June 18, 2009The "Handbook of Statistical Analysis & Data Mining Applications" is the finest book I have seen on the subject. It is not only a beautifully crafted book, with numerous color graphs, chart, tables, and screen shots, but the statistical discussion is both clear and comprehensive.
The text does not use only one statistical data mining application to display examples, but provides a rather thorough training in the use of both SAS-Enterprise Miner and STATISTICA Data Miner. A section on SPSS Clementine is also provided, giving comparisons between the various packages. Also employed are STATISTICA's C&RT, CHAID, MARSpline, and other data mining and graphical analytic tools.
The text does not burden the typical data mining researcher with the internals of how the various tools work. It is therefore not steeped in equations. Some are to be found, of course, but the emphasis is on understanding the concepts involved and on how to apply these concepts to real data -... read more
I really liked this book
By Anonymous "Anonymous" - June 27, 2009I had experience with many of the statistical tools that fall under the heading of data mining. There are good books on GAMs and so on. What I like about this book is that it embeds those methods in a broader context, that of the philosophy and structure of data mining writ large, especially as the methods are used in the corporate world. To me, it was really helpful in thinking like a data miner, especially as it involves the mix of science and art.
I also had no experience with Statistica Data Miner but have been very impressed with the program relative to those that are less well documented (WEKA) and too darned expensive (SAS EM)
The richness of the examples is so helpful.
