    Course Description, Aim and Content


    In the scope of this course we will cover various machine learning and data mining methods,
    namely the associations, clustering and classification applied to different data types. We will look
    at recommendation systems and personalization where data mining models play an important
    role. Students are expected to understand the fundamental theory behind each technique, as
    well as implementing them using an environment such as Python. Some machine learning
    concepts will be recovered by applying them on Python. This course also aims to improve
    practical programming skills of the students for implementing basic/advanced machine learning
    techniques. Therefore, we will be developing lots of Python applications to reinforce our
    theoretical knowledge.
