CSI 470 - Data Mining

5 Credits
Searching for patterns in related data is essential for businesses to understand what data is relevant to their enterprise. Students will learn to extract patterns mining in business data by programming various algorithms in classification, clustering and association.

Prerequisite(s): Completion of CSI 345 with a 2.0 or higher.
