CS/CMPE 636 – Advanced Data Mining Outline Description Cover recent developments in some key areas of data mining: Mining data streams Cluster analysis Web mining Prepare students for research work in data mining. Follow a lecture-discussion format where topics are introduced and techniques critically discussed. The majority of the material discussed will be derived from research publications. Students will be expected to read before coming to class and participate in the discussions. Emphasis will be placed on the design and implementation of efficient and scalable algorithms for data mining. The course project will require students to research, design, implement, and present their solution to a data mining problem. CS 636 - Adv.

Office hours: 10.00 to 12.00 MW (office: 429) E-mail: [email protected] By appointment: e-mail me for an appointment before coming Philosophy Knowledge cannot be taught; it is learned. Be excited. That is the best way to learn. I cannot teach everything in class. Develop an inquisitive mind, ask questions, and go beyond what is required. I don’t believe in strict grading. But… there has to be a way of rewarding performance. CS 636 - Adv.
