Course description
  • 3 weeks
  • Many people have big data but only some people know what to do with it. Why? Well, the big problem is that the data is big—the size, complexity and diversity of datasets increases every day. This means we need new solutions for analysing data.
  • This course equips you for working with these solutions by introducing you to selected statistical and machine learning techniques used for analysing large datasets and extracting information. We also expose you to three software packages so you can develop your coding skills by completing practical exercises.
  • Introduction to the relationship between statistical inference and machine learning
  • The application of methods from these areas to real world projects
  • An overview of the most popular methods currently used in these fields.
  • Machine learning methods used to undertake prediction and analysis of a given data set.
  • Specific methods such as neural networks, decision trees, principal component analysis and clustering.
  • The practical application of modern analysis tools such as R Studio and H2o.
  • Identify big data application areas
  • Explore big data frameworks
  • Model and analyse data by applying selected techniques
  • Demonstrate an integrated approach to big data
  • Develop an awareness of how to participate effectively in a team working with big data experts
  • You will enjoy this course most and benefit from the learning experience if you have a basic understanding of statistics and mathematics at a university undergraduate level.
  • Queensland University of Technology
  • QUT is a leading Australian university ranked in the top 1% of universities worldwide by the 2019 Times Higher Education World University Rankings. Located in Brisbane, it attracts over 50,000 students.
