Course description

The module deals with the fundamentals and principles of supervised procedures for generating prediction models on the basis of structured data with the help of procedures from the field of machine learning using analytical information systems. Students are able to apply these methods to various practical examples and to evaluate, interpret and critically question the results. In particular, students will built up an understanding of the ideal-typical knowledge-discovery-in-databases process and its components in general, and modelling and data pre-processing in particular. Furthermore, the students will be able to appropriately approach and solve predictive modelling problems on basis of complex data sets and thus provide adequate decision support. They will have the ability to deal with selected application systems of machine learning in particular and predictive modelling in general.

Course facts

Important information

The number of participants is limited to 60. First come first serve. There will be a waiting list.

Due to the unclear Covid-19 situation, no attendance events are planned until further notice.

A kickoff meeting with all the information for the course as well as the online exercises will be held via MS-Teams. A corresponding link will be available for enrolled students in the link list.

DataCamp

In addition to the excercises, we offer 13 DataCamp courses. The participation is not mandatory but it is highly recommended because the DataCamp courses entail the necessary programming knowledge for the excercises. The exam will take place on the same day as ADA and DSDT. Please consider this in your semester planning.

Final exam

The exam will take place as online exam in Opal (ONYX). Further information will be given during the course.
