1 MALIRE - Machine Learning and Information Retrieval

This chapter focuses on real-world applications of fuzzy techniques for information retrieval and data mining. It gives a presentation of the theoretical background common to all applications, lying on two main elements: the concept of similarity and the fuzzy machine learning framework. It then describes a panel of real-world applications covering several domains namely medical, educational, chemical and multimedia.
