Good old stuff from stistics

• - logistic regression and linear regression [Bernardo (?)]
• + LDA [Rossella (?) + Simone (?)]

Good old stuf from machine learning

• + Decision trees [Matt]
• ~ Decision rules [Matt + Andrea (?)]
• - Association rules [?]

Statistical approaches

• + Bayesian classifiers [Matt]

Non parametric methods

• - KNN & friends, Locally weighted regression,

Kernel methods

~ SVM and Kernel methods [Matt (?) + Luigi (?) + (?)]

Unsupervised

Distributions of data

• + Feature selection and projection (PCA, ICA, ...) [Rossella (?)+ Simone]
• Kernel based density estimation, ... [Rossella (?) + Luigi (?) + Simone]
• Clustering

Graphical models

• ~ Bayesian networks [Matt + Luigi (?)]

Time Varing Models
