DCSI 470 - Research Methods in Data Science: Machine Learning

"The Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) (formerly the American Association for Artificial Intelligence) is a nonprofit scientific society devoted to advancing the scientific understanding of the mechanisms underlying thought and intelligent behavior and their embodiment in machines."

The Alan Turing Institute is the national institute for data science and artificial intelligence, with headquarters at the British Library.

This course introduces machine learning in an approachable way and provides step-by-step guidance on how to get started with machine learning via the most in-demand language in use today, Python.

This course reviews the definition and types of machine learning: supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement. Then you can see how to use popular algorithms such as decision trees, clustering, and regression analysis to see patterns in your massive data sets. Finally you can learn about some of the pitfalls when starting out with machine learning.
