About the Authors
  • Ripley brings together two crucial ideas in pattern recognition: statistical methods and machine learning via neural networks. He brings unifying principles to the fore, and reviews the state of the subject. Ripley also includes many examples to illustrate real problems in pattern recognition and how to overcome them.

    • The most reliable account of the subject available - now in paperback
    • Unparalleled coverage with valuable insights into the theory and a wide range of applications
    • Real case-studies, data sets and examples help build skills and understanding
