Product ReviewsStochastic Modelling and Applied Probability Ser.: A Probabilistic Theory of Pattern Recognition by László Györfi, Luc Devroye and Gabor Lugosi (1997, Hardcover)

Great for research in classification

A well written text on classification and pattern recognition. I am in an applied mathematics masters program, so my prerequisites in measure theoretic probability were very weak. However, I feel like the book was very self contained, with an appendix to cover all of the essential concepts in probability. The proofs are well written (albeit way beyond my level) and thorough. Covers many different methods of classification.Read full review...
