| Introduction: |
|
| This course explores the theory and practice of statistical machine learning. The main goal of this class is to introduce you to the ideas and techniques of machine learning, and the probabilistic models that underlie behind them. Topics include parameter estimation, approximate inference, and kernel and nonparametric methods. Applications to regression and categorization problems are illustrated by examples from vision, language, communications, and bioinformatics. This course will discuss the conceptual relationships between these different learning problems, and introduce some of the most practically effective statistical models and computational methods. |
