It exposes students to a range of industry-standard statistical and data analysis techniques and tools, and fosters awareness of the challenges associated with working with large datasets. The module also covers topics related to the legal, social, ethical and professional issues associated with data storage and analysis. Students will undertake practical work including empirical data analysis and summarisation / presentation of the results to a range of relevant stakeholders.ResearchResearch Interests:My research interests are in Bayesian Artificial Intelligence for causal discovery and intelligent decision making under uncertainty. I collaborate with academics and industrial organisations world-wide and I apply my research to a wide range of areas including sports, economics, medicine, finance, and gaming.View my Research Website.View my Publications.Publications Kitson NEVILLE, Constantinou A (2024).
