Senior Teacher Assistant - Data Mining

Data Mining, Queen Mary University of London, 2019

Data that has relevance for decision-making is accumulating at an incredible rate due to a host of technological advances. Electronic data capture has become inexpensive and ubiquitous as a by-product of innovations such as the Internet, e-commerce, electronic banking, point-of-sale devices, bar-code readers, and electronic patient records. Data mining is a rapidly growing field that is concerned with developing techniques to assist decision-makers to make intelligent use of these repositories. The field of data mining has evolved from the disciplines of statistics and artificial intelligence. This module will combine practical exploration of data mining techniques with a exploration of algorithms, including their limitations. Students taking this module should have an elementary understanding of probability concepts and some experience of programming.

I taught this module, which is oriented to undergraduate and postgraduate students, for a semestre under the supervision of Prof. Ioannis Patras and Dr. Jesus Requena CarriĆ³n.
