In this course, you will learn how to use data mining techniques to uncover interesting patterns and meaningful insights that are often hidden beneath the surface. It covers several machine learning techniques that range from classification to various prediction methodologies. On top of the theoretical aspects, the course gives students the opportunity of hands-on experience by experimenting with empirical data sets to find intriguing patterns that the business can capitalize on.
In this course, you will explore collaboration and communities of practice from a theoretical and practical perspective. This course will review personal networks and social networks, the natural lifecycle of communities and best practices for cultivating and sustaining communities. You will also gain extensive insight into the latest trends on the web and a range of methods from predictive analysis to social marketing.
