這本模式識別的書非常經典，然而也非常稀罕，很少有人有。我最早讀的是第二版，這本書全面覆蓋了統計模式識別領域的重要知識點。書中用大量篇幅講解無監督聚類方法，這一點在模式識別教材中應該是獨一無二的，比如Duda的書在這方面只留了一章，處理的也比較簡單。另外，本書還有章節專門講特征抽取、選擇，以及模板匹配這些內容，也彌補了Duda教材的不足。第三版增加了一些內容，主要是基于核方法的內容，反映了學界的進展。-Book of this pattern recognition is very classic, however, very rare, very few people have. I first read the second edition, this book comprehensively covers the important points of the field of statistical pattern recognition. Book at great length to explain the unsupervised clustering method, which is unique in pattern recognition textbooks, such as Duda' s book in this regard, leaving only one chapter, is also relatively simple to deal with. In addition, the book there are chapters dedicated speakers feature extraction, selection, and template matching, but also compensate for the lack of materials Duda. The third edition of the increase in some of the content is mainly based on the content of the kernel method, reflecting the academic progress.
