Description

Machine Learning is becoming ubiquitous across all industries. Already many applications have been identified which use Machine Learning now. Few examples include Spam Detection, Face Recognition, Emotion Analysis, Object Detection, Credit Card Fraud Detection, Weather Prediction, and the list is almost endless. More new applications are being identified by different industries almost everyday.

It is not just about applying superior technology for traditional problems when we apply Machine Learning. It is also about business sense since applying Machine Learning, we can make experiments and applications much more economical.

This course is a result of a discussion among my Project Team from our cohort in IIT, Kanpur learning Cyber Security. We have embarked to create a product for Malware Detection using Machine Learning. While all of us are getting grips on Malware Analysis, the team needed some inputs of Machine Learning. To fill the gap, I conducted some sessions with our Project Team members on Machine Learning. This course is a collection of the recording of these sessions.

This course discusses what are Machine Learning Algorithms. We discuss Random Forest Algorithm and Linear Regression as examples to understand what are models in Machine Learning. We see how to implement such models using Python. During the discussion on the development of the Machine Learning models, we discuss the various steps like Data Preprocessing, Normalisation, Scaling, etc. We touch upon the basics of Neural Network and take a slight deep dive into Regression. The course includes discussion on concepts like what is overfitting, what is hyper-parameter tuning, etc.

This course tries to give an idea for what it takes to create a product which uses Machine Learning. I believe that the discussions can get one started to apply Machine Learning to many problems.

Who this course is for:

  • Students
  • Professionals

Introduction to Machine Learning

Theoretical concept of Machine learning

Concepts of Regression

Concepts of data preprocessing

Overall Machine Learning theory and its algorithms

Requirements

  • None. You will learn everything from its basic

Description

The course introduces the concepts of Machine Learning.  It covers the regression, both linear and logistic. Decision trees, Data preprocessing etc., to explore the machine learning in brief with plenty of examples. it also discusses the concept of state space, bias, etc. in Machine learning. Machine learning is the field of study that gives computers the ability to learn without being explicitly programmed. This course covers the following aspects of machine learning:

1.Basic Definitions 2.Types of Learning

3.Hypothesis space and Inductive Bias

4.Evaluation

5.Cross-Validation

6.Linear Regression

7.Decision Trees 8.Overfitting

The course is designed after studying the syllabus of various technological universities. Machine learning is basically of three types: The main goal in supervised learning is to learn a model from labeled training data that allows us to make predictions about unseen or future data. Supervised refers to a set of samples where the desired output signals (labels) are already known.

Unsupervised learning deals with unlabeled data or data of unknown structure. Using unsupervised learning techniques explores the structure of our data to extract meaningful information without the guidance of a known outcome variable or reward function.

In reinforcement learning, the goal is to develop a system (agent) that improves its performance based on interactions (reward signals) with the environment.

Who this course is for:

  • The course is intended for the students of BCA, BE, BTech and anybody interested in Machine Learning
