Overview: Advances in technology are making massive data sets common inmany scientific disciplines, such as astronomy, medical imaging,bio-informatics, combinatorial chemistry, remote sensing, and physics.To find useful information in these data sets, scientists andengineers are turning to data mining techniques. This book is acollection of papers based on the first two in a series of workshopson mining scientific datasets. It illustrates the diversity ofproblems and application areas that can benefit from data mining, aswell as the issues and challenges that differentiate scientific dataminin
