Review Text Mining: Predictive Methods for Analyzing Unstructured Information / Springer:

The growth of the web can be seen as an expanding public digital library collection. Online digital information extends far beyond the web and its publicly available information. Huge amounts of information are private and are of interest to local communities, such as the records of customers of a business. This information is overwhelmingly text and has its record-keeping purpose, but an automated analysis might be desirable to find patterns in the stored records. Analogous to this data mining is text mining, which also finds patterns and trends in information samples but which does so with far less structured-though with greater immediate utility for users-ingredients. This book focuses on the concepts and methods needed to expand horizons beyond structured, numeric data to automated mining of text samples. It introduces the new world of text mining and examines proven methods for various critical text-mining tasks, such as automated document indexing and information retrieval and search. New research areas are explored, such as information extraction and document summarization, that rely on evolving text-mining techniques.

Review Pro SQL Server Disaster Recovery / Apress:

The process of disaster recovery involves mitigating the likelihood of a disaster and returning the system to a normal state. This book shows you how to implement an effective disaster recovery strategy for SQL Server 2005 databases. With the arrival of SQL Server 2005, you have access to enhanced existing features and powerful new tools, like database snapshots and mirroring, for data backup and disaster recovery. The book also covers fundamental changes to disaster recovery capabilities, and common issues to expect when using new features. The book examines the technical details of disaster recovery features, and then applies that information to practical scenarios. As businesses become increasingly reliant on the information they store in their various databases, effective data protection becomes ever more critical. Potential disasters can arise from natural causes, user errors, and media or hardware failure. This book will help you ensure that day-to-day activities can continue, regardless of the problem.

Review Understanding Complex Datasets: Data Mining with Matrix Decompositions (Chapman & Hall/Crc Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery Series) / Chapman & Hall/CRC:

Making obscure knowledge about matrix decompositions widely available, Understanding Complex Datasets: Data Mining with Matrix Decompositions discusses the most common matrix decompositions and shows how they can be used to analyze large datasets in a broad range of application areas. Without having to understand every mathematical detail, the book helps you determine which matrix is appropriate for your dataset and what the results mean. Explaining the effectiveness of matrices as data analysis tools, the book illustrates the ability of matrix decompositions to provide more powerful analyses and to produce cleaner data than more mainstream techniques. The author explores the deep connections between matrix decompositions and structures within graphs, relating the PageRank algorithm of Google's search engine to singular value decomposition. He also covers dimensionality reduction, collaborative filtering, clustering, and spectral analysis. With numerous figures and examples, the book shows how matrix decompositions can be used to find documents on the Internet, look for deeply buried mineral deposits without drilling, explore the structure of proteins, detect suspicious emails or cell phone calls, and more. Concentrating on data mining mechanics and applications, this resource helps you model large, complex datasets and investigate connections between standard data mining techniques and matrix decompositions.
