Managing and Mining Uncertain Data

Managing and Mining Uncertain Data, a survey with chapters by a variety of well known researchers in the data mining field, presents the most recent models, algorithms, and applications in the uncertain data mining field in a structured and concise way. This book is organized to make it more accessible to applications-driven practitioners for solving real problems. Also, given the lack of structurally organized information on this topic, Managing and Mining Uncertain Data provides insights which are not easily accessible elsewhere. Managing and Mining Uncertain Data is designed for a professional audience composed of researchers and practitioners in industry. This book is also suitable as a reference book for advanced-level students in computer science and engineering, as well as the ACM, IEEE, SIAM, INFORMS and AAAI Society groups.

From the reviews: "The three broad areas covered in Aggarwal’s book are modeling and system design, management, and mining of uncertain data. … Aggarwal’s book is a timely publication, in that it provides a good summary of the current state of the art in the area of uncertain data modeling, management, and mining. It should be of interest to researchers and graduate students involved in the area, as well as novices who wish to become acquainted with the topic." (John Fulcher, ACM Computing Reviews, May, 2009)
