This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 18th European Conference on Machine Learning, ECML 2007, held in Warsaw, Poland, September 17-21, 2007, jointly with PKDD 2007. The 41 revised full papers and 37 revised short papers presented together with abstracts of 4 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 592 abstracts submitted to both, ECML and PKDD. The papers present a wealth of new results in the area and address all current issues in machine learning.
