It also serves as an introduction for students and researchers to the growing field of kernel-based pattern analysis! demonstrating with examples how to handcraft an algorithm or a kernel for a new specific application! and covering all the necessary conceptual and mathematical tools to do so. Zusammenfassung The kernel functions methodology described here provides a powerful and unified framework for disciplines ranging from neural networks and pattern recognition to machine learning and data mining. This book provides practitioners with a large toolkit of algorithms! kernels and solutions ready to be implemented! suitable for standard pattern discovery problems.
