Description:
The main aim of data mining is to extract knowledge, or information, which is stored in very large databases. This course covers many of the concepts that are fundamental to understanding and successfully applying data mining methods. Statistical concepts are discussed without mathematically complex formulation. Practical sessions will use the latest versions of standard software rather than data mining – the emphasis of the course is on techniques rather than data mining software.
