Knowledge Discovery over Database
Project Description
In this project, students are guided to conduct research in the data mining field (or the knowledge discovery field). Depending on students’ strength, they are given some particular data mining problems. For example, if they are good at optimization, some candidate problems include “how to find the best discount rate for a shop in order to attract more customers” and “how to promote products for a shop”. If they are good at graph, one of the candidate problems is “how to find similar friends in facebook”.

Requirement: Students are required to have their GPA/CGA at least 3.7 (out of 4.0).

Roles:
- to study some important problems in the field
- to implement some important algorithms in the field
- to conduct research

Outcomes:
- to know how to implement some important algorithms in the field
- to know how to conduct research
