CPS 360 - Introduction to Machine Learning

Description
This course will introduce some foundational machine learning algorithms from both a theoretical and practical perspective, with the focus on developing deep understanding of a few important algorithms. This deep exploration will expose some of the principles and challenges that lie at the core of nearly all machine learning techniques. The study of machine learning requires the use of mathematical, computational, and empirical tools and students will gain experience bringing all of these tools to bear to understand, apply, and perhaps even improve upon the methods discussed.
