Announcements
20/01/2019: Those who are taking the course but have not submitted the ADD request on CRP, need to submit the request at an earliest (CRP has listed the course code as CS7XX).
Also, please join the Advanced Data Mining course on Moodle, with enrolment key cs724_201820192.
18/01/2019: A list of papers have been uploaded in the section of "Reference Papers" above. Groups of 1/2/3 students can be formed, and each group needs to select 1-2 (multiplied by the group size) papers of own choice, and inform me about the selected papers. The group is then supposed to thoroughly read through the papers, and present and discuss in the class.
15/01/2019: Tomorrow, we will discuss on the paper "gSparsify: Graph Motif Based Sparsification for Graph Clustering", CIKM 2015. Download a copy from here.
13/01/2019: I will be on leave tomorrow. So there will be no Advanced Data Mining classes tomorrow (Monday, 14th January 2019). Any urgent communications can be directed through email.
09/01/2019: Considering some requests, the minimum requirements of the CS524 (DM) and CS724 (ADM) have been changed. Now, the students who have already completed the CS503 (ML) course with a grade of B or lower, can enrol in CS524 (DM). The UG students can enrol in CS724 (ADM), only if their grade in CS524 is at least A-.
08/01/2019: The confusion about the timing of this course has been clarified and confirmed. Please see the details above. Classes are going to start from tomorrow. The first class is going to take place at 11am tomorrow in M2, Lecture Hall Complex.
08/01/2019: Welcome to the course CS724 - Advanced Data Mining. It will be taught by Dr Tarique Anwar (myself). The timing, venue and other details will be announced here shortly.
Note: This page will be updated regularly with all the helpful information and announcements. Students are recommended to keep checking the updates here.
