Content and learning outcomes
Course contents
Intended learning outcomes
After passing the course, the student shall be able to
- explain different fundamental concepts and algorithms in data mining and basic technologies for analysis and extraction in information networks (for example the fundamental concepts in graph theory, network models, algorithms left graph clustering, identification of "communities", "Label Propagation", link prediction, etc)
- analyse, choose, use, and evaluate technologies for data mining that is based on the above concepts and explore and implement the existing data mining algorithms independently
- communicate findings, results and ideas with clear and formal language.
