Introduction to Pattern Recognition and Data Mining Techniques for Supervised and Unsupervised Learning Problems


This seminar aims at introducing theoretical, technical and practical aspects in the design and development of machine learning systems for the analysis of signals, measurements and, more generally, of big data, based on Computational Intelligence techniques such as Bayesian learning, neural networks, fuzzy logic, evolutionary computation, etc. The focus will be on engineering applications for the solution of both supervised and unsupervised learning problems, in particular concerning optimization, approximation, regression, prediction, interpolation, filtering, clustering and classification. Main topics of the seminar will be: introduction to machine learning and data driven modeling problems (inference, regularization, overfitting, structural optimization); data analysis and conditioning (feature extraction, denoising, detrending, normalization); supervised and unsupervised learning problems; fundamentals of clustering algorithms; fundamental of classification algorithms; fundamental of regression models.
