Single-Course English 5 ECTS

Applied Machine Learning and Big Data

Overall Course Objectives

Systematically acquisition, cleaning, storing and analysis of data and reporting these establishes ability to react – and has the potential to transform the business in many companies.

In the course work is carried out on structured and unstructured heterogeneous data targeting data visualization, clustering and classification.

Furthermore work is carried out using cloud services for big data analysis, and administration of Unix/Linux as basis for server platforms.

A part of the course is concentrated on carrying out a project according to the student interest. In the project are applied methods presented in the course. A part of the project is searching for project relevant information in a scientific information base, e.g. DTU Findit

Learning Objectives

  • Understand and apply multidimensional data representations.
  • Understand and apply methods for cleaning of datasets.
  • Understand and apply machine leaning for visualization of datasets.
  • Understand and apply machine learning for cluster analysis (unsupervised classification) of dataset.
  • Understand and apply machine learning for classification.
  • Understand and apply cloud services for big data analysis.
  • Understand and apply fundamental Unix/Linux tools for administration of server platform for big data.
  • Understand and apply a scientific database, e.g. DTU Findit for search of references targeted a given project area.

Course Content

Data representation in multidimensional heterogeneous datasets.
Cleaning of dataset, including identification and removal of outliers.
Application for machine learning based visualization; cluster analysis
e.g. k-nearest-neighbor, hierarchical clusteranalysis, spectral clustering, naiive Bayes;
and classification e.g. logistic regression, support vector machines, decision trees, random forests, deep neural networks, recurrent neural networks.
Applying cloud services for big data analysis, including tools for administration of a server platform.
Applying a scientific database for knowledge.

Recommended prerequisites

You must have programming knowledge and desire to learn more programming. Bring your own PC (Mac, Windows or Linux). Depending on your data size you must expect to allocate funds for the storage and processing of the data.
