DATA SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY INTELLIGENCE Single discipline educational activity
Course Sheet Academic Year of enrolment:
Professor and Collaborators:
Hours of classroom activity:
Prerequisites:
For a full understanding of the topics covered, knowledge of the contents of the “Applied Data Analytics” course is strongly recommended.
Objectives
Contents The course is divided into two modules. In the first, concepts relating to Data Science and Artificial Intelligence will be introduced, discussing their applications in various contexts, and subsequently focusing on Machine Learning (ML), supervised classification and evaluation metrics of machine learning systems.
In the second module, the concepts learned will be put into practice, developing analysis processes based on ML techniques, and applied to specific objectives, such as text and image classification, automatic sentiment analysis, recommendation systems.
Extended Syllabus Module 1. Elements of Data Science, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
Data Science and Big Data Analytics: definitions and concepts
Elements of Artificial intelligence: symbolic and sub-symbolic approaches
Machine Learning: prediction, classification and results evaluation metrics
Neural Networks and Deep Learning: definition and concepts
Module 2. Practical applications and case studies
Practical applications: automatic classification of text and images
Sentiment analysis in practice: vocabulary-based approaches and supervised learning approaches
Recommender Systems: definitions, concepts and examples.
Recommended Bibliography Course material will be provided in the form of lecture slides, which will be uploaded to the e-learning portal, and readings (articles, tutorials or part of books) indicated by the teacher during the course.
Methods of Provision
Teaching Methods The course is composed by 36 hours of lectures.
The organization of the course is implemented based on “l’Ascolto”, a sperimental model for the constant improvement of academic didactics. The course will be structured in modules, where lectures make use of the following methods: frontal lessons, practical demonstrations and exercises.
Evaluation methods Verification of learning:
The exam will include a multiple choice and/or open question test to evaluate the understanding of the topics covered, a practical test to evaluate the understanding and ability to use the software tools covered, and a short oral interview.
The final evaluation will take into account in equal measure the score obtained in the test, in the practical test and in the oral interview.
