COM8400 - Tutorial papers
- There will be four one-hour tutorial sessions, with one tutorial
group: Thursday 15:00 - 16:00 in the CSIT building, room N115/N116
(computer lab).
- For each tutorial two relevant papers will be made available
here. A sheet with questions about the topic of these papers will
also be available for each tutorial. We will discuss these questions
(as well as additional questions and issues you have).
- The first paper for each tutorial provides an overview or
presents a general topic not covered in the corresponding
lectures, while the second, additional paper is more advanced
and present a topic in more details.
- Students are expected to read the first paper before the
tutorials and go through the questions sheet, and also note
their own questions and issues they would like to have
discussed during the tutorials.
- The second, additional paper will be discussed in the tutorials
if there is time.
Note: The second, additional paper will not be part of
the assessable course material (i.e. there will be no
assignment task or exam questions about the topics covered in
the additional papers). They do, however, cover important
additional material relevant to data mining.
