Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives: This course will cover the fundamentals of Machine Learning, including supervised and unsupervised learning, classification, regression, clustering, decision trees, and basics of deep learning. Students will learn how to apply these techniques to solve real-world problems, such as image classification, natural language processing, and recommender systems. Additionally, the course will cover the concepts of model evaluation, feature selection, and data preprocessing, which are crucial for developing effective Machine Learning models.
Course Content: The content of the course consists of linear regression, logistic regression, K-Nearest Neighbor, Support Vector Machines, Naïve Bayes, K- means clustering, Principal component analysis, ensemble learning algorithms like the random forest, and gradient boosting machines, artificial neural networks with single-layer and multiple-layer perceptrons
