“Pattern Mining with Evolutionary Algorithms provides an overview of methods using evolutionary algorithms for discovering interesting patterns. The book is very useful and can potentially attract more people to carry out research and applications in pattern mining using evolutionary algorithms. … I found it easy to read, well-written and well-structured, very beneficial and important for readers to develop substantial learning. In view of this, I strongly recommend this valuable book.” (Bing Xue, Genetic Programming and Evolvable Machines, Vol. 18, 2017)
