Handbook of Research on Text and Web Mining Technologies

The massive daily overflow of electronic data to information seekers creates the need for better ways to digest and organize this information to make it understandable and useful. Text mining, a variation of data mining, extracts desired information from large, unstructured text collections stored in electronic forms. The Handbook of Research on Text and Web Mining Technologies is the first comprehensive reference to the state of research in the field of text mining, serving a pivotal role in educating practitioners in the field. This compendium of pioneering studies from leading experts is essential to academic reference collections and introduces researchers and students to cutting-edge techniques for gaining knowledge discovery from unstructured text.
