Course Name (English) DATA MINING
Course Code ISP565
MQF Credit 3
Course Description The Data Mining course introduces the concepts and methods of data mining and shows its relationship with data science. All the steps involved in knowledge data discovery will be discussed. Topics include Introduction to Data Mining, Data Preparation and Pre-processing, Classification, Model Evaluation & Selection, Clustering, Association Analysis, and ends with Future Trends & Challenges. The algorithm for each modelling process is discussed with supporting examples using real-world datasets. These datasets are used for model building using assessable technology with easy-to-use platforms. The findings will be presented through digital tools. The knowledge and practical skills gained from this course would benefit the students for solving real problems in industry or society-related issues for various SDG-based applications.
