31243 Analytics Project

Requisite(s): 31251 Data Structures and Algorithms AND 31250 Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery

Data mining and knowledge discovery is the kernel of contemporary computer analytics and intelligence. The process consists of several iterative steps, including data pre-processing and transformation, the actual data mining and pattern discovery steps, and putting discovered information and knowledge into action. This subject is focused on the practical implementation of this process to large data sets from different areas of human endeavour. It provides students with exposure to real-world analytics scenarios, and with expertise and experience in the application of the data mining techniques and in professional communication of analytics results.
