Graphics, Multivariate Methods and Data Mining - STAT302

This unit introduces statistical tools for multivariate data analysis such as statistical graphics, discriminant analysis, principal component analysis, cluster analysis and an introduction to data mining, especially classification. Statistical packages are used extensively to illustrate the concepts in lectures and tutorials. Students are given opportunities to share their learning with their peers in tutorials, by presenting to their peers such as solutions to a problem posed in an earlier class, or summary of a specific weeks’ learning in one or two slides, similar to 3 minute thesis presentations.
