BIG DATA ANALYTICS: CLUSTER ANALYSIS AND PATTERN RECOGNITION. EXAMPLES WITH MATLAB

Big data analytics examines large amounts of data to uncover hidden patterns, correlations and other insights. MATLAB has the tool Neural Network Toolbox (Deep Learning Toolbox from version 18) that provides algorithms, functions, and apps to create, train, visualize, and simulate neural networks. You can perform classification, regression, clustering, dimensionality reduction, time-series forecasting, and dynamic system modeling and control.The toolbox includes convolutional neural network and autoencoder deep learning algorithms for image classification and feature learning tasks. To speed up training of large data sets, you can distribute computations and data across multicore processors, GPUs, and computer clusters using Big Data tools (Parallel Computing Toolbox). Unsupervised learning algorithms, including self-organizing maps and competitive layers-Apps for data-fitting, pattern recognition, and clustering-Preprocessing, postprocessing, and network visualization for improving training efficiency and assessing network performance. This book develops cluster analysis and pattern recognition
