Overview
This course introduces students to the contemporary state of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence. It combines the theoretical foundations of Machine Learning algorithms with extensive practical assignments. The curriculum spans classical algorithms through to Deep Learning approaches and recent advances in Artificial Intelligence.
Programming assignments will be completed in Python 3, with the PyTorch framework used for Deep Learning practice.
Special acknowledgement is given to Radoslav Neychev for his inspiration and for authoring most of the materials in this course.
