| Goals |
Data Mining, called also Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD)
is a new multidisciplinary field. It brings together research and
ideas from database technology, machine learning, neural networks,
statistics, pattern recognition, knowledge based systems, information
retrieval, high-performance computing, and data visualization. Its
main focus is the automated extraction of patterns representing knowledge
implicitly stored in large databases, data warehouses, and other massive
information repositories.
The course will closely follow the book and is designed to give a
broad, yet in-depth overview of the Data Mining field and examine
the most recognized techniques in a more rigorous detail. |
