CPSC 340: Machine Learning and Data Mining

CPSC 340: Machine Learning and Data Mining (2012, University of British Columbia). Instructor: Professor Nando de Freitas. This course will provide an introduction to machine learning and data mining. It will teach the basic principles and skills required for analysing data in a principled way: finding statistical patterns, dimensionality reduction, clustering, classification and prediction. Students will also have the opportunity of learning Python, a widely used programming language.
