Courses
Designed to provide students with a solid background in data mining and knowledge discovery concepts, tools, and methodology, as well as their applicability to real world problems. A variety of data mining techniques will be explored including memory-based reasoning, cluster detection, classification, neural networks, and finding understandable knowledge in large sets of real world examples. Some related topics such as web and multimedia mining will be discussed. Students will gain hands-on experience in data mining techniques using various data mining software packages and tools.
A study of principles and practices for development of safe and secure software. This course focuses on the design and implementation of secure software. It uses security design patterns and secure coding practices to eliminate the accidental insertion of vulnerabilities into code and to mitigate the risk of security vulnerabilities.
