Pattern classification is the assignment of a physical object or event to one of several pre-specified categories. It is the basic theory underlying pattern recognition by computers. With the spread of neural network research, pattern classification has experienced a significant increase in both interest and research activity. This edition has been completely revised, enlarged and formatted in two colour. It is a systematic account of the major topics in pattern recognition, based on the fundamental principles. It includes extensive examples and exercises, and is accompanied by a solutions manual.
