In completing the course, the student shall be able to:

• formulate and describe various applications in pattern recognition, understand the Bayesian approach to pattern recognition 

• be able to mathematically derive, construct, and utilize Bayesian-based classifiers, and non-Bayesian classifiers both theoretically and practically. 

• be able to identify the strengths and weaknesses of different types of classifiers

• understand basic concepts such as the central limit theorem, the curse of dimensionality, the bias-variance dilemma, and cross-validation

• validate and assess different clustering techniques CLO4. apply various dimensionality reduction methods whether through feature selection or feature extraction

• assess classifier complexity and regularization parameters 

• be able to combine various classifiers using fixed rules or trained combiners and boost their performance

• implement simple classification methods for some special tasks such as face recognition , digit recognition and understand the possibilities and limitations of pattern recognition
