This course is concerned with data mining concepts and techniques, especially neural networks and genetic programming. It mainly focuses on the following topics: data mining and knowledge discovery in databases; data mining techniques such as nearest neighbour, naive Bayes, support vector machines, neural networks, genetic algorithms and genetic (automatic) programming; image analysis operations such as feature extraction and image recognition; and performance evaluation of data mining/ machine learning/image recognition systems. The course considers applications ranging from general classification, clustering and optimisation tasks to engineering applications. |
