ELEC-E5431 - Large Scale Data Analysis D, Lecture, 7.1.2025-9.4.2025

Please note! Course description is confirmed for two academic years, which means that in general, e.g. Learning outcomes, assessment methods and key content stays unchanged. However, via course syllabus, it is possible to specify or change the course execution in each realization of the course, such as how the contact sessions are organized, assessment methods weighted or materials used.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

Students will be able to recognize the problems of processing data of large scale that arise in engineering and computer science. The focus is in statistical inference, learning and optimization methods for large scale data.  Students will know the basic theory of such problems, concentrating on results that are useful in computation. Students will have a thorough understanding of how such problems are thought of and addressed, and some experience in solving them. Students are expected to be able to apply the methods of large scale data analysis in their own research work. They will know a number of examples of successful application of the large scale data analysis techniques in different areas. More detailed and revised learning outcomes are presented at the beginning of the course.
