Abstract

It has been a great honour to have been given the opportunity to edit this book and a great pleasure to work with such a respected group of data mining scientists and professionals. It is our belief that the knowledge provided by studying the journeys these respected and recognised individuals took through the area of data mining is as important as simply gaining the required knowledge in the field. The contributors to this volume are successful scientists and professionals within the field of data analytics. All the authors in this volume have helped to shape the field of data analytics through their many valuable contributions.
