Course Description

This course provides selected topics in Machine Learning focusing on Deep Learning. Topics include: logistic regression, neural networks, deep neural networks, convolutional neural networks, recurrent neural networks, reinforcement learning, generative adversarial networks, regularization, decision tree, boosting, feature extraction, Bayesian network classifiers, and clustering techniques. The course also explores the applications of such topics in Data Science, Data Mining, and Data Analytics. Through projects, the taught algorithms are used to build intelligent systems in areas such as smart robots, computer vision, medical and healthcare informatics.

Prerequisites

CSCI 3333 or consent of instructor.

Learning Objectives

The course covers the principles, design and implementation of learning programs that improve their performance on some set of tasks with experience. Upon successful completion of the course, students will have a broad understanding of machine learning algorithms and their use in data-driven knowledge discovery and program synthesis. Students will have designed and implemented several machine learning algorithms in Python and Google Tensorflow deep learning package. Students will also be able to identify, formulate and solve machine learning problems that arise in practical applications.

Grading Policies

Programming Assignments 50% Project 50%
Course grades will be decided according to the following scheme: A (100~90), B (90~80), C (80~70), D (70~60), F (60~0)
