[COC-19012] Data Mining and Machine Learning Laboratory

Teaching Scheme: Examination Scheme:
Practical: 2 hrs/week Term Work: 50 marks
Oral Examination: 50 marks
Course Outcomes:

Students will be able to :

1. Apply data preprocessing techniques on any data.

2. Apply all possible evaluation measures and diagnoses required on kinds of data
3. Apply learning techniques like classification, decision tress, naive bayesian model,
clustering, SVM, ANN, etc., to solve a real-life problem.
4. Demonstrate the ability to analyze different machine learning algorithms using
exploratory data analysis techniques
5. Compare and contrast the strengths and weaknesses of various Machine Learning
approaches

Suggested list of Assignments:

1. Take any benchmark dataset (both numeric and text) and apply preprocessing techniques on
it.

2. Compare the performance of 10 machine learning models for regression data set (eg. UCI
repository Breast Cancer dataset) for the data partition of 70-30% with acceptable error of ±100.
The comparative study of machine learning models should be of the form:
Model Method Package r R2 Error Accuracy
M1
M2
…
M10

3. Study 5 feature selection techniques on the regression data set considered in (2) and report top
five features. The study of feature selection techniques should be represented as :

Feature Selection Technique Tops 5 Features

T1
T2
..
T5

4. Estimate the accuracy of the Naive Bayes classifier on the breast cancer data set using 5-fold
cross-validation.

5. Implement the SVM algorithm with RBF. Estimate the precision, recall, accuracy, and F-
measure on the text classification task for each of the 10 categories using 10-fold cross-
validation of Reuters dataset.

6. Implement both the k-means algorithm and the Hierarchical Agglomerative Clustering (HAC)
algorithm. For both, assume that all features are real-valued. Also assume that there is no need
for normalization of the features. Use the Ln-norm for distance calculations with a default value
of n=2 (Euclidean).
Note that the datasets you are to test your algorithms with contain labeled items. You will need
to ignore the label (target attribute, always last here) while clustering.
Implement the k-means clustering algorithm and the HAC algorithm (using single linkage). For
k-means, your program should automatically try 2 <= k <= 7 and compute the squared error in
each case. You should then return the value of k that produces the lowest squared error, together
with that error. For HAC, you should compute (and store) the squared errors of all possible
clustering's (as they are built from the bottom up). Upon completion, you should return the value
of t (distance threshold) that produces the lowest squared error, the corresponding number of
clusters, and the corresponding error.
Use the algorithms on the Iris dataset(available on UCI repository) .
Compare the best number of clusters obtained by k-means and HAC. How do these also compare
with the underlying structure of the dataset in which there are 3 classes of iris plants?
Experiment with your distance metric -- can you find a value of n for the Ln-norm that changes
the number of clusters found?
Graph the value of the squared error for each clustering as HAC executes (with no threshold).
What do you observe? Is this surprising?

7. Implement the Apriori algorithm. Build your own association task. Design your task so that
it contains some simple associations you can check your algorithm against. List these
associations. Run Apriori for various combinations of minsup and minconf values. Verify that the
associations you designed into the task are discovered by your algorithm.
Note: The teacher taking the course can change the list of assignments. This is just a guideline of
list of assignments.
