4. Assessment

• Students will be asked to apply the K-mean and Hierarchical clustering

algorithm on the given dataset.
• Students will submit their exercise answers in PDF file.

5. Resources Suggest further resources for the students to manage their learning
after the class. Make sure that the resources are specific and
different to suit all students, e. g. Figures, Tables, Links, etc.
