DSC3216: Predictive Analysis in Business

What did I learn?

I learnt different types of data forecasting in Business perspectives ie, clustering, classification, time series

Difficulty? (1-very easy, 5-very difficult)

Lecture

None

Tutorials

It is a seminar-based module. It was a 3h module and my prof He Long usually ends in 2h 45 min as he really goes in-depth with the lectures. He is a very good teacher and explains them very well.
