INTRODUCTION

From October 03-04 2016, the School for Information and Knowledge Systems (SIKS) organizes the course “Mathematical Methods for IKS”. The course will be given in English is part of the Tutorial Program for SIKS-PhD -students. Although the course is primarily intended for SIKS-PhD-students, other participants are not excluded. However, their number of passes will be restricted and depends on the number of SIKS-PhD -students taking the course.

Ever since the emergence of data science there is a growing need to understand the mathematical techniques underlying machine learning, data mining, process mining, statistical learning, computational intelligence, data visualisation et cetera. This intensive two days course will cover some elementary theory, but is first and foremost interactive and practically oriented. Among other things students will practise in two environments, ORANGE and Word2vec.
