Such a project would compare the performance of the variants across a number of datasets (e.g. taken from the UCI ML repository). | + | * Exploring variants of an algorithm studied in class or an algorithm not studied in class. Such a project would compare the performance of the algorithms across a number of datasets to some baseline methods (datasets taken e.g. from the UCI ML repository). |

- | * Applying ML techniques to a dataset that you have personal interest in. We can provide ideas from bioinformatics and EEG data analysis (Chuck Anderson who works on brain-computer interfaces would be happy to talk to you about that). See e.g. data from [[http://www.bbci.de/competition/ | BCI competitions]]. | + | * Applying ML techniques to a dataset that you have personal interest in. |
- | * Exploring algorithms not studied in class. | + | |
- | * Exploring issues such as over fitting, to obtain a better understanding of when it occurs for high dimensional data, and which algorithms are more susceptible. | + | |
- | * Participate in a machine learning competition among the ones available at the [[https://www.kaggle.com/competitions | kaggle]] website. | + | |
