As the amount of research and industry data being collected daily continues to grow, intelligent software tools are increasingly needed to process and filter the data, detect new patterns and similarities within it, and extract meaningful information from it. Data mining and predictive modeling offer a means of effective classification and analysis of large, complex, multi-dimensional data, leading to the discovery of functional models, trends and patterns.
Building upon the skills learned in previous courses, this course covers advanced data mining, data analysis, and pattern recognition concepts and algorithms, as well as models and machine learning algorithms
