Introduction to Machine Learning by NPTEL at NPTEL Course details
- Intended for senior UG/PG students. BE/ME/MS/PhD
- With the increased availability of data from varied sources there has been increasing attention paid to the various data driven disciplines such as analytics and machine learning. In this course we intend to introduce some of the basic concepts of machine learning from a mathematically well motivated perspective. We will cover the different learning paradigms and some of the more popular algorithms and architectures used in each of these paradigms.
