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.
