Introduction
Introduction
This course provides a broad introduction to machine learning, datamining, and statistical
pattern recognition. Topics include: (i) Supervised learning (parametric/non-parametric
algorithms, support vector machines, kernels, neural networks). (ii) Unsupervised learning
(clustering, dimensionality reduction, recommender systems, deep learning). (iii) Best
practices in machine learning (bias/variance theory; innovation process in machine learning
and AI). The course will also draw from numerous case studies and applications, so that
you'll also learn how to apply learning algorithms to building smart robots (perception,
control), text understanding (web search, anti-spam), computer vision, medical informatics,
audio, database mining, and other areas.
Machine learning is changing the way we design and use our technology. It has slowly spread
it’s reach through our devices, from self-driving cars to even automated chatbots. To define
machine learning in the simplest terms, it is basically the ability to equip computers to think
for themselves based on the scenarios that occur. This is the basis of artificial intelligence.
With machine learning as the future of technology, getting your hands on this type of
development is crucial. However, it isn’t easy. Machine learning is a complex concept that
uses algorithms to design coding that will help the computers decipher a lot of data. This is
why we have designed this course. If you are interested in mastering machine learning using
a simple and easy approach, then this course is for you!
The only requisites for this course includes having a strong mathematical background and
familiarity with Python coding principles. Everything else is provided within this course.
Starting at the very beginning, this course will help you breakdown machine learning into
simple and easy to understand concepts.
The course covers a variety of different machine learning concepts such as supervised
learning, unsupervised learning, reinforced learning and even neural networks. But that’s not
all. In addition to understanding the theory behind machine learning, you will then actually
use these concepts and implement them into actual projects to see how they work in action!
The course also comes with quizzes at the end of each section to help solidify your
understanding for the subject. It will also help you valuate your learning of the subject.
At the end of this interactive and hands-on course, you will have everything you need to
actually get started with understanding machine learning algorithms and even start writing
your own algorithms that you can use for your own projects.
