This textbook provides a solid mathematical basis for understanding popular data science algorithms for clustering and classification and shows that an in-depth understanding of the mathematics powering these algorithms gives insight into the underlying data. It presents a step-by-step derivation of these algorithms, outlining their implementation from scratch in a computationally sound way. Mathematics of Data Science: A Computational Approach to Clustering and Classification proposes different ways of visualizing high-dimensional data to unveil hidden internal structures, and nearly every chapter includes graphical explanations and computed examples using publicly available data sets to highlight similarities and differences among the algorithms. This self-contained book is geared toward advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students in the mathematical sciences, engineering, and computer science and can be used as the main text in a semester course. Researchers in any application area where data science methods are used will also find the book of interest. No advanced mathematical or statistical background is assumed.

At a moderately advanced level, this book seeks to cover the areas of clustering and related methods of data analysis where major advances are being made. Topics include: hierarchical clustering, variable selection and weighting, additive trees and other network models, relevance of neural network models to clustering, the role of computational complexity in cluster analysis, latent class approaches to cluster analysis, theory and method with applications of a hierarchical classes model in psychology and psychopathology, combinatorial data analysis, clusterwise aggregation of relations, review of the Japanese-language results on clustering, review of the Russian-language results on clustering and multidimensional scaling, practical advances, and significance tests.

I am very happy to have this opportunity to present the work of Boris Mirkin, a distinguished Russian scholar in the areas of data analysis and decision making methodologies. The monograph is devoted entirely to clustering, a discipline dispersed through many theoretical and application areas, from mathematical statistics and combina torial optimization to biology, sociology and organizational structures. It compiles an immense amount of research done to date, including many original Russian de velopments never presented to the international community before (for instance, cluster-by-cluster versions of the K-Means method in Chapter 4 or uniform par titioning in Chapter 5). The author's approach, approximation clustering, allows him both to systematize a great part of the discipline and to develop many in novative methods in the framework of optimization problems. The optimization methods considered are proved to be meaningful in the contexts of data analysis and clustering. The material presented in this book is quite interesting and stimulating in paradigms, clustering and optimization. On the other hand, it has a substantial application appeal. The book will be useful both to specialists and students in the fields of data analysis and clustering as well as in biology, psychology, economics, marketing research, artificial intelligence, and other scientific disciplines.

This volume contains a selection of papers presented at the Seven~h Confer ence of the International Federation of Classification Societies (IFCS-2000), which was held in Namur, Belgium, July 11-14,2000. From the originally sub mitted papers, a careful review process involving two reviewers per paper, led to the selection of 65 papers that were considered suitable for publication in this book. The present book contains original research contributions, innovative ap plications and overview papers in various fields within data analysis, classifi cation, and related methods. Given the fast publication process, the research results are still up-to-date and coincide with their actual presentation at the IFCS-2000 conference. The topics captured are: • Cluster analysis • Comparison of clusterings • Fuzzy clustering • Discriminant analysis • Mixture models • Analysis of relationships data • Symbolic data analysis • Regression trees • Data mining and neural networks • Pattern recognition • Multivariate data analysis • Robust data analysis • Data science and sampling The IFCS (International Federation of Classification Societies) The IFCS promotes the dissemination of technical and scientific information data analysis, classification, related methods, and their applica concerning tions.

ISBN: 1611977886

This unique book explores several well-known machine learning and data analysis algorithms from a mathematical and programming perspective. The authors present machine learning methods, review the underlying mathematics, and provide programming exercises to deepen the reader’s understanding; accompany application areas with exercises that explore the unique characteristics of real-world data sets (e.g., image data for pedestrian detection, biological cell data); and provide new terminology and background information on mathematical concepts, as well as exercises, in “info-boxes” throughout the text. Algorithmic Mathematics in Machine Learning is intended for mathematicians, computer scientists, and practitioners who have a basic mathematical background in analysis and linear algebra but little or no knowledge of machine learning and related algorithms. Researchers in the natural sciences and engineers interested in acquiring the mathematics needed to apply the most popular machine learning algorithms will also find this book useful. This book is appropriate for a practical lab or basic lecture course on machine learning within a mathematics curriculum.
