TSK - Chapter 1 - Introduction

Data Mining : Non-trivial extraction of implicit, previously unknown and potentially useful information from data. Exploration & analysis, by automatic or semi-automatic means, of large quantities of data in order to discover meaningful patterns.

"Introduction to Data Mining" by Pang-Ning Tan, Michael Steinbach and Vipin Kumar has been recommended to me as a great book to learn about Data Mining. Read the first chapter and it felt very inspiring as though it was beckoning me to keep at it and read more.
