== Course outline ==

This course is designed for graduate students to provide comprehensive and advance topics in machine learning. Student will learn to implement the machine learning models in Python programming environment from data science prospective. In this course, we will cover sampling methods, Splines, Kernel Hilbert spaces, Neural Network Architectures (CNN, LSTM, Attention, RNN), Regularizations, Bayesian Learning and networks, Graphical Models (HMM), Autoencoders, Generative models, Reinforcement learning and Collaborative filtering. The end of the day they will able to apply machine learning algorithms to solve real-world problems.

== Expected learning outcomes ==

* Understand how machine can learn the concepts
* Significant exposure to real-world implementations
* To develop research interest in the theory and application of machine learning

== Programming related learning outcomes ==

* The course include a significant amount of programming in Python, which the student needs to master during the labs and project.
* Each student team will develop a project written in Python with the help of machine learning libraries.

== Required background knowledge ==

An overview of artificial intelligence fundamentals and Python programming skills would be a plus point, but not required.

== Prerequisite courses ==

As a graduate level course, the students are expected to have engineering undergraduate background. Familiarity with basics concepts of probability, linear algebra and basics of machine learning.
