Exploring this area from the perspective of a practitioner,&nbsp;<strong>Data Mining with R: Learning with Case Studies</strong>&nbsp;uses practical examples to illustrate the power of R and data mining.</p> <p style="clear: both;line-height: 16.0px;padding: 0.0px 0.0px 12.0px;margin: 0.0px;color: rgb(0,0,0);font-family: Verdana , Arial , Helvetica , sans-serif;font-size: 11.0px;font-style: normal;font-variant: normal;font-weight: normal;letter-spacing: normal;text-indent: 0.0px;text-transform: none;white-space: normal;word-spacing: 0.0px;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="clear: both;line-height: 16.0px;padding: 0.0px 0.0px 12.0px;margin: 0.0px;color: rgb(0,0,0);font-family: Verdana , Arial , Helvetica , sans-serif;font-size: 11.0px;font-style: normal;font-variant: normal;font-weight: normal;letter-spacing: normal;text-indent: 0.0px;text-transform: none;white-space: normal;word-spacing: 0.0px;">Assuming no prior knowledge of R or data mining/statistical techniques, the book covers a diverse set of problems that pose different challenges in terms of size, type of data, goals of analysis, and analytical tools. To present the main data mining processes and techniques, the author takes a hands-on approach that utilizes a series of detailed, real-world case studies:</p> <ol style="color: rgb(0,0,0);font-family: Verdana , Arial , Helvetica , sans-serif;font-size: 11.0px;font-style: normal;font-variant: normal;font-weight: normal;letter-spacing: normal;line-height: 16.0px;text-indent: 0.0px;text-transform: none;white-space: normal;word-spacing: 0.0px;"> <li style="padding: 0.0px;margin-left: 7.0px;">Predicting algae blooms</li> <li style="padding: 0.0px;margin-left: 7.0px;">Predicting stock market returns</li> <li style="padding: 0.0px;margin-left: 7.0px;">Detecting fraudulent transactions</li> <li style="padding: 0.0px;margin-left: 7.0px;">Classifying microarray samples</li></ol> <p style="clear: both;line-height: 16.0px;padding: 0.0px 0.0px 12.0px;margin: 0.0px;color: rgb(0,0,0);font-family: Verdana , Arial , Helvetica , sans-serif;font-size: 11.0px;font-style: normal;font-variant: normal;font-weight: normal;letter-spacing: normal;text-indent: 0.0px;text-transform: none;white-space: normal;word-spacing: 0.0px;">With these case studies, the author supplies all necessary st
