INTRODUCTION

The objective of the special session is to provide a forum for
the discussion of recent advances in the application of computational 
intelligence methods to data mining and machine learning problems, 
both in batch off-line and incremental on-line mode, and to offer an
opportunity for researchers and practitioners to identify and discuss 
recent advances and new promising research directions.
