Hi @ all!

I thought post my question in this thread as it is rather similar: I'm used to classification (and regression) tasks. Right now I'd like to explore unsupervised methods. Is there a recent good overview book or article about different methods? I know I'm asking for much, but at least it needn't be in German ;-)

Best regards,

How would this overview look like?

There are 9001 unsupervised learning methods.

I think most of today's research is about combining unsupervised and supervised methods.

Also I think all clustering algorithms viewed from a Bayesian perspective boil down to:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expectation-maximization_algorithm
and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category_utility

I have read quite a few articles on unsupervised learning methods, but I'm unsure to which I should point you.

Hi wessel,

thank you for your reply. To your question how that overview would look like: I'm searching for a "Mitchell" about unsupervised learning.

Best regards,
