Course’s Description
This course has been designed to give students an introduction to data mining and hands on experience
with all phases of the data mining process using real data and modern tools. It covers many topics such as data
formats, and cleaning; make prediction using supervised and unsupervised learning using Python and other tools,
and sound evaluation methods; and data/knowledge visualization.
Course’s Objectives
This course is designed to achieve a number of goals for each student such as:
• Providing the fundamental understanding of data mining in order to extract hidden knowledge.
• Exploring the different data mining tasks to extract knowledge:
o Classification,
o Clustering,
o Association Rules extraction, and
o Outlier detection.
• Practicing the data mining project phases
• Presenting the data in the early stage of data mining projects as well as the extracted knowledge.
• Provide the students the latest hot topics in data mining field.
• Strengthen the team work
Course’s Outcome
By the end of this course the students should be able to:
• Identify the meaning of data mining, describe the suitable data for data mining projects, list/identify at
least five different data mining tasks and evaluate the extracted knowledge for each task.
• Collect and prepare data set suitably for data mining projects.
• Use machine learning techniques to perform the different data mining tasks.
• Analysis and build data mining projects individually or as a team member/leader as well .
• Adopt the ethics of profession with the sensitive personal data
