  • flow-shop
  • I feel in the internet ara, Text mining and web mining are most useful techniques
  • If the poll can be classified by area, it could be better!
  • For my stuff Logistic regression works remarkably well Why is Genetic Algorithms not mentioned separately? They perform really well! Anybody else out there using GA's or GP?
  • How could you leave clustering out of the list?
  • Also use sequence detection techniques
  • how about k-nearest neighbor
  • Didn't realize that so many other people used neural nets, presumably for classification.
