DATA ANALYSIS
1. Knowledge and understanding (Conoscenza e capacità di comprensione). The first “Statistical Learning” module mainly concerns the fundamentals of two of the main methods used in unsupervised learning: principal component analysis and cluster analysis.
2. Applying knowledge and understanding (Capacità di applicare conoscenza e comprensione). On completion, the student will be able: i) to implement the main methods used in unsupervised learning; ii) to summarize the main features of a dataset and extract knowledge from data properly.
3. Making judgements (Autonomia di giudizio). On completion, the student will be able to choose a suitable statistical model, apply it, and perform the analysis using a statistical software.
4. Communication skills (Abilità comunicative). On completion, the student will be able to present the results from the statistical analysis, and which conclusions can be drawn.
5. Learning skills (Capacità di apprendimento). On completion, the student will be able to understand the structure of unsupervised learning.

STATISTICAL LEARNING
Knowledge and understanding (Conoscenza e capacità di comprensione). The objectives of the module aim at acquiring knowledge about: i) setting of the learning problem and introducing the general model of the risk functional from empirical data; ii) main statistical learning techniques for regression and data classification.
