    • Pre-processing techniques
    • OLAP analysis & data warehousing
    • Clustering (k-means, k-medoids, DBSCAN, OPTICS)
    • Classification (k-Nearest-Neighbor, Bayes, Decision Tree, Support Vector Machine; Bagging, Boosting, e.g. Random Forest, AdaBoost)
    • Regression analysis (linear regression, logistic regression)
    • Association rule learning (Aprioiri, FP-Growth)
    • Introduction to Deep Learning
