This has a myriad of applications from recommendation engines to social network analysis.</p> <p>This is an independent study, meaning that I will be studying this topic under the direction of a professor, in this case being Dr. Denhere.</p> <p>I have provided a list of topics that I wish to explore in a <a href="index.html%3Fresearch%252FClusterAnalysis%252Fsyllabus.html">syllabus</a></p> <p>Dr. Denhere likes to approach independent studies from a theoretical and applied sense. Meaning, I will learn the theory of the different algorithms, and then figure out a way to apply them onto a dataset.</p> <h2>Readings</h2> <p>There is no definitive textbook for this course. Instead I and Dr. Denhere search for materials that we think best demonstrates the topic at hand. </p> <p>I have created a <a href="index.html%3Fresearch%252FClusterAnalysis%252Freadings.html">Reading Page</a> to keep track of the different reading materials.</p> <h2>Learning Notes</h2> <p>I like to type of the content I learn from different sources. A <a href="index.html%3Fresearch%252FClusterAnalysis%252Fnotes.html">notes page</a> is created to keep track of the content discussed each meeting.</p> </article> </main> <script src="themes/bitsandpieces/scripts/highlight.js"></script> <script src="themes/bitsandpieces/scripts/mousetrap.min.js"></script> <script type="text/x-mathjax-config"> MathJax.Hub.Config({ tex2jax: { inlineMath: [ ['$','$'], ["\\(","\\)"] ], processEscapes: true } }); </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdn.mathjax.org/mathjax/latest/MathJax.js?config=TeX-AMS-MML_HTMLorMML"> </script> <script> hljs.initHighlightingOnLoad(); document.querySelectorAll('.menuitem a').forEach(function(el) { if (el.getAttribute('data-shortcut').length > 0) { Mousetrap.bind(el.getAttribute('data-shortcut'), function() { location.assign(el.getAttribute('href')); }); } }); </script> </body> </html>
