Machine Learning for Engineers

Chemical and Biological Engineering Ira A. Fulton College of Engineering

Course Description

Machine Learning for Engineers combines mathematical details with several case studies that provide an intuition for machine learning with methods for classification, regression, and dimensionality reduction. A second phase of the course is a hands-on group project. The engineering problems and theory guide the student towards a working fluency in state-of-the-art methods implemented in Python.
