Data Mining: Practical Machine Learning Tools and Techniques, 5th Edition is a computer science textbook covering machine learning concepts and practical analytical techniques. The text pairs conceptual instruction with practical advice for real-world data mining applications.

The volume structures its material across two primary sections. Part I details data mining concepts, input principles, knowledge representation, basic algorithmic methods, credibility evaluation, data preparation, and ethical considerations. Part II expands into advanced machine learning schemes, covering ensemble learning methods, deep learning frameworks, probabilistic approaches, and practical application impacts.

Honored with the 2026 Textbook and Academic Authors Association Textbook Excellence "Texty" Award, this fifth edition provides structured instruction that supports study across computational curricula and technical workflows.
