5.0 crédits ECTS  15.0 h + 15.0 h   2q 

Teacher(s) Chen Libei ;
Language French
Place
of the course
Louvain-la-Neuve
Main themes - Data Mining application domains - Steps of a data mining project - Sampling and partionning of the data base and training and validation sets - Data pretreatment and validation - Premilinary variable analysis, variables reduction and transformation - Classification and modeling tools of data mining - Decision trees - Neural networks - Tools to validate and compare estimated models - Case studies
Aims In this course, we will learn data mining methodology and techniques for knowledge discovery in large databases. We will also see how data mining differs from traditional statistics and how to treat a practical problem with an appropriate data mining tool.
Content - Introduction to data mining o Data and data mining systems o Data mining applications o Data mining process and methodology o Data mining in customer relationship management (CRM) o Traditional statistics versus data mining - Data preparation for data mining o Data preparation stages o Data specification o Data extraction and aggregations o Data audit and exploration o Data pre-processing - Predictive modelling o Decision trees o Neural networks o Model validation and assessment - Descriptive modelling o Clustering o K-means o Kohonen Self-Organising Map - Case studies
