More About This Title Geometric Data Analysis: An Empirical Approach toDimensionality Reduction and the Study of Patterns

English

This book addresses the most efficient methods of pattern analysis using wavelet decomposition. Readers will learn to analyze data in order to emphasize the differences between closely related patterns and then categorize them in a way that is useful to system users.
