Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this module, students will know about fundamental supervised and unsupervised methods from machine learning. This includes methods for regression, classification (e.g., logistic regression and decision trees), and clustering. Students will understand how these methods work and know how to use existing implementations (e.g., in libraries such as scikit-learn). Given a practical problem setting, they will be able to choose a suitable method, apply it to the dataset at hand, and assess the quality of the determined model. In addition, students will be aware of typical data-quality issues and know how to resolve them.

Module content:
Machine learning plays an increasingly important role with applications ranging from recognizing handwritten digits, via filtering out unwanted span e-mails, to the ranking of results in modern search engines. After successfully completing this module, students will know about fundamental supervised and unsupervised methods of machine learning. We will look into how these methods are defined formally, including the mathematics behind them. Moreover, we will apply all methods on concrete datasets to solve practical problems. To do so, we will rely on existing libraries (e.g., scikit-learn) that provide efficient implementations of the methods. This course will be accompanied by theoretical exercises and project assignments. The exercises will help students to deepen their understanding of the methods, while the project assignments will encourage students to solve practical problems by applying their knowledge to real-world datasets. 1. Introduction - What is Machine Learning? - Applications - Libraries - Literature 2. Working with data - Typical data formats (e.g., CSV, spreadsheets, databases) - Data quality issues (e.g., outliers, duplicates) - Scales of measures (i.e., nominal, ordinal, numerical) - Data pre-processing (in Python and using UNIX command line tools) 3. Regression - Ordinary least squares - Multiple linear regression - Non-linear regression - Evaluation 4. Classification - Logistic regression - k-nearest neighbors - Naive Bayes - Decision trees - Neural networks - Evaluation 5. Clustering - k-means - Hierarchical agglomerative/divisive clustering - Density-based clustering - Evaluation 6. Outlook - Ongoing research - Competitions (e.g., Kaggle and KDD Cup) - Other resources (e.g., KDnuggets)
