Machine Learning for Data Analytics (Competence)

'This course introduces machine learning methods andtheir applications for data analytics. Students taking thiscourse will learn modern machine learning techniquesincluding classification, regression and generative modelsand algorithms as well as how to apply them to dataanalytics. The course starts with machine learning basicsand some classical machine learning methods, followed bysupervised and unsupervised data clustering, datadimensionaliy reduction for visualization and dataclassification. The students are expected to have solidbackground knowledge on calculus, linear algebra,probability and basic statistics.'
