Formerly MK476. This course introduces students to the foundational machine learning techniques that are transforming the way we do business. Machine learning relies on interdisciplinary techniques from statistics, linear algebra, and optimization to detect structure in large volumes of data and solve prediction problems. You will gain a theoretical understanding of why the algorithms work, when they fail, and how they create value. You will also gain hands-on experience training machine learning models in Python and deriving insights and making predictions from real-world data. Prior programming experience is strongly recommended.
