Course description and aims
Machine Learning is a "field of study that gives computers the ability to learn without being explicitly programmed" (Arthur Samuel, 1959). With the advances in theories and algorithms, big data, and computation power, machine learning recently showed astonishing progress, applied to various fields other than computer science. This lecture introduces the fundamental concepts and theories of machine learning that are essential for any engineer to apply machine learning technologies. This lecture also provides exercises where students can cultivate the skill for implementing the theories and algorithms as computer programs in Python.
* We may prioritize students in the Department of Computer Science, School of Computing when we need to limit the number of registered students due to the countermeasures for COVID-19.
Student learning outcomes
* Acquire knowledge about the fundamental concepts and theories of machine learning
* Understand the theories and algorithms through implementations
* Learn the basic skill for data processing
Keywords

Out-of-Class Study Time (Preparation and Review)
To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterward (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
Textbook(s)
None
Reference books, course materials, etc.
Course materials are distributed on OCW-i.
Assessment criteria and methods
Based on the three reports (60%) and the final exam (40%).
