Data science and Applied Mathematics

sinf2m  2016-2017  Louvain-la-Neuve


Students choosing the major “Computing and Applied Mathematics” must be able to:
  • Understand engineering fields requiring synergy between applied mathematics and computer science such as algorithms, scientific calculations, modelling computer systems, optimisation, machine learning or data mining;
  • Understand and put to good use methods and techniques used in advanced algorithms such as optimisation methods, constraint programming, graph algorithms, numerical algorithms, or analysis and design of algorithms;
  • Identify and implement models and techniques relating to statistics, machine learning and data mining; learn classes of applications such as the treatment of noisy data, pattern recognition or automatic extraction in large data collections.
