Advanced Data Science
Section Info:
For up-to-date information about statistics course registration, please see our registration update pages: go.illinois.edu/StatisticsRegistration Students must be registered for this course by 4 pm on Wednesday January 18, 2017. No new students will be allowed to register for this class after that. The materials and deadlines for this course can be found here: https://github.com/lcdm-uiuc/info490-sp17 Extensions to assignment deadlines will NOT be granted so make sure to check the site as soon as you register. TOPIC: Advanced Data Science Description: This class is an asynchronous, online course. Please see INFO 490 (section RB2, CRN 64015) for more information. This course will introduce advanced data science concepts by building on the foundational concepts presented in INFO 490: Foundations of Data Science. Students will first learn how to perform more statistical data exploration and constructing and evaluating statistical models. Next, students will learn machine learning techniques including supervised and unsupervised learning, dimensional reduction, and cluster finding. An emphasis will be placed on the practical application of these techniques to high-dimensional numerical data, time series data, image data, and text data. Finally, students will learn to use relational databases and cloud computing software components such as Hadoop, Spark, and NoSQL data stores. Students must have access to a fairly modern computer, ideally that supports hardware virtualization, on which they can install software. This class is open to sophomores, juniors, seniors and graduate students in any discipline who have either taken a previous INFO 490 data science course or have received instructor permission. Restrictions: Not intended for students with Freshman class standing. The STAT 430 section is restricted to statistics students only. Other students would register for INFO 490 section RB2, CRN 64015. Priority registration is restricted to students majoring in Statistics or Statistics & Computer Science. Students minoring in Statistics are expected to be added to the restrictions sometime during the business day December 1, 2016.
Restriction(s):
Restricted to Statistics or Statistics & Computer Science major(s) or minor(s). Not intended for students with Freshman class standing.
