Course description and aims

This course introduces basic knowledge of machine learning and deep learning.

Student learning outcomes

[Goal]
- Understand basic concepts (e.g., classification, convex optimization) and methods (e.g., stochastic gradient descent, back propagation) for discriminative models of machine learning.
- Realize machine learning with toolkits and programming.
[Theme] The first half of this lecture covers basic concept of machine learning with linear models and optimization. The second half of this lecture presents the fundamentals and practices of deep learning.

Keywords
