Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Goals:
Upon successful participation in the course, students will understand the principles of state-of-the-art techniques for learning from massive data. They can apply and evaluate those techniques in practical applications.

Lecture Contents:
* Dealing with large data (e.g., Map-Reduce)
* Fast nearest neighbor methods (e.g., Locality Sensitive Hashing)
* Scalable Supervised Learning, Online learning
* Active learning
* Clustering
* Interactive learning

Methods:
Lecture
+ pen & paper exercises (~bi-weekly assignments) and their discussion
+ programming exercises

Assessment and permitted materials

Written exam (at the end of the semester; 2xA4 sheets of hand-written notes can be used)

3 Programming assignments (submission of solutions in the form of source code and a written report)

6 Pen & paper exercises (some containing small programming tasks; ~bi-weekly; solved by students before the exercise sessions in which the students are randomly selected to present their solutions; discussion; attendance is mandatory)

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Students attending this course must have solid basic knowledge of statistics, algorithms, machine learning, and programming (i.e., appropriate university-level courses must have been taken and all prerequisites according to the curriculum must be met).

30% Written exam
35% Programming exercises
35% Pen & paper exercises (with small programming tasks)

P = Average percentage on the written exam, the programming exercises, and the pen & paper exercises

90% <= P Sehr Gut (1)
77% <= P < 90% Gut (2)
62% <= P < 77% Befriedigend (3)
50% <= P < 62% Genügend (4)
0% <= P < 50% Nicht Genügend (5)

At least 50% on the written exam, 50% on the programming exercises, and 50% on the pen & paper exercises must be achieved for a passing grade.

Attendance of the lecture parts of the course is voluntary but highly recommended. Attendance of the pen & paper exercises and the written exam is compulsory to pass the course.

Examination topics

The presented topics in the lecture (according to slides + exercises). Referenced Literature (as indicated in detail on lecture slides).
