Machine Learning and Data Mining II (NCHWRL598)

15 Credits

This course continues with supervised and unsupervised predictive modelling, data mining, machine-learning concepts and feature engineering, it covers mathematical and computational aspects of learning algorithms, including kernels, time-series data, collaborative filtering, support vector machines, neural networks, Bayesian learning and Monte Carlo methods, multiple regression, and optimization.

This course also uses mathematical proofs and empirical analysis to assess validity and performance of algorithms and studies additional computational aspects of probability, statistics, and linear algebra that support algorithms.

Requires programming in R and Python. Applies concepts to common problem domains, including spam filtering.
