Preface

The papers published in this book were presented at the second workshop on Machine Learning and Data Mining in Pattern Recognition MLDM. Those of you familiar with the first workshop will notice that the ideas related to this topic are spreading to many researchers. We received several excellent papers on subjects ranging from basic research to application oriented research. The subjects are Case-Based Reasoning, Rule Induction, Grammars, Clustering, Data Mining on Multimedia Data, Content-Based Image Retrieval, Statistical and Evolutionary Learning, Neural Networks, and Learning for Handwriting Recognition. The whole spectrum of topics in MLDM was represented at the workshop with emphasis on images, text, and signals, and temporal spatial data. We also took a step in the direction of our decision made at the last TC3 Machine Learning meeting in Ba
