Course Aims

Data mining focuses on algorithms and computational paradigms that allow computers to find patterns and regularities in dataset, perform predictions and generally improve the performance through interaction with data. It is currently regarded as the key element of a more general knowledge discovery process that deals with extracting useful knowledge from raw data. Students in this course will learn advanced algorithms for mining data with various forms. 

The learning journey will start with the classical data mining methods for tabular and graph data and next move into vision based analytics with advanced algorithms. Students will be exposed to different model architectures and learning algorithms, such as classical and deep learning ones. The journey will go further into the various real-world applications.
