NGSSC: Data mining and applications in science and technology, 2p (+2p).
Mål
Aim of the course: To give an introduction to some basic techniques in data mining and knowledge discovery in data bases (KDD) with special emphasis on methods that are relevant for research in science and technology. The basic theoretical background will be given in the course. In the computer assignments and homework the students will learn to use a commercial software package and also experimental (academic) software. Some coding of basic algorithms will take place.
Application areas: Information retrieval (text mining and web search engines), bioinformatics, sensor technology, medical informatics, image processing and searching.
