Theoretical/computational foundations of analyzing large/complex modern datasets, including the fundamental concepts of machine learning and data mining needed for both resesarch and practice. Crosslisted with CSE 6740. Credit not awarded for both ISYE 6740 and CS 4641/7641/CSE 6740.

This course focuses on analysis of high-dimensional structured data including profiles, images, and other types of functional data using statistical machine learning. A variety of topics such as functional data analysis, image processing, multilinear algebra and tensor analysis, and regularization in high-dimensional regression and its applications including low rank and sparse learning is covered. Optimization methods commonly used in statistical modeling and machine learning and their computational aspects are also discussed. 

Advanced techniques for economic analysis of capital investment. Basic terminology and financial engineering concepts for managing and valuing project risk. Real options applications in systems engineering.

Regression analysis: multiple linear regression, diagnostics, and variable selection. Forecasting: exponential smoothing techniques and autoregressive moving average models.

Tools and approaches for analysis and synthesis of enterprise information systems. Topics include user-centered requirement, scenario-based design, UML, network/communications, iterative prototyping, and enterprise support.
