Dealing with these data requires specialised algorithms and the use of a higher performance or cloud computing environment. This unit outlines the challenges and opportunities associated with big data and introduces machine learning algorithms that scale to large datasets. This unit will expand on the material presented in earlier data science units and students will use their programming knowledge to implement machine learning algorithms to address real world problems.","title-full":"IFN645 Machine Learning at Scale","title-short":"Machine Learning at Scale","url":{"current":"https://qutvirtual4.qut.edu.au/group/student/enrolment/units/unit?unitCode=IFN645&year=2025","prospective":"https://www.qut.edu.au/study/unit?unitCode=IFN645","timetable":"https://qutvirtual3.qut.edu.au/qvpublic/ttab_unit_search_p.process_teach_period_search?p_unit_cd=IFN645"},"year":2025,"years":[2024,2025]}
