Course description
Machine Learning Foundation | Working With Statistics, Algorithms, Neural Networks & More (With Best Practices)
Machine Learning Foundation is a hands-on primer on the mathematics and algorithms used in Data Science, as well as creating the foundation and building the intuition necessary for solving complex machine learning problems. The course provides a good kick start in several core areas with the intent on continued, deeper learning as a follow on. This course is a foundation-level machine learning class for Intermediate skilled team members.
This course reviews key foundational mathematics and introduces students to the algorithms of Data Science. Working in a hands-on learning environment, students will explore:
- Popular machine learning algorithms, their applicability and limitations
- Practical application of these methods in a machine learning environment
- Practical use cases and limitations of algorithms
- Core machine learning mathematics and statistics
- Supervised Learning vs. Unsupervised Learning
- Classification Algorithms including Support Vector Machines, Discriminant Analysis, Naïve Bayes, and Nearest Neighbor
- Regression Algorithms including Linear and Logistic Regression, Generalized Linear Modeling, Support Vector Regression, Decision Trees, k-Nearest Neighbors (KNN)
- Clustering Algorithms including k-Means, Fuzzy clustering, Gaussian Mixture
- Neural Networks including Hidden Markov (HMM), Recurrent (RNN) and Long-Short Term Memory (LSTM)
- Dimensionality Reduction, Single Value Decomposition (SVD), Principle Component Analysis (PCA)
- How to choose an algorithm for a given problem
- How to choose parameters and activation functions
- Ensemble methods
