Course description
Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence concerned with the development and application of adaptive algorithms that use example data or previous experience to solve a given problem. Topics include: learning problems (e.g regression, classification, unsupervised) and theory, neural networks, statistical and probabilistic models, clustering, ensembles, implementation issues, applications (e.g. bioinformatics, cognitive science, forecasting, robotics, signal and image processing).
