Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence concerned with making accurate, interpretable, computationally efficient, and robust inferences from data to solve a given problem. Students should understand the foundations of machine learning, and gain practical skills to solve different problems.

Course Outcomes

A student will be able to:

• Demonstrate technical knowledge of the underlying principals and concepts of machine learning science.
• Apply efficient machine learning algorithms on a problem.
• Design evaluation procedures to evaluate a model.
• Interpret the results of machine learning run on real data.
• Assess the benefits/drawbacks of competing models and algorithms, relevant to real problems.
• Demonstrate your knowledge about cutting edge research streams and developments in machine learning.
• Recognise real-world problems suitable to machine learning.
