Course content
The course repeats the basics of data mining and machine learning, basic data preprocessing methods, classification algorithms, association analysis and clustering and introduce selected newer methods and algorithms. The course extends the introductory parts of the master's studies. Types, quality and data preprocessing, methods of reducing data dimensionality, similarity and dissimilarity of objects. Problem classification, decision trees and other methods. Bayesian networks and graph data models. Ensemble methods (bagging, boosting, random forests), performance evaluation. Association analysis, Apriori algorithm and others. Cluster theory and algorithms, cluster quality. Outliers detection methods. Reinforcement learning. Deep learning.
