KurzbeschreibungThe course introduces the foundations of learning and making predictions based on data.
LernzielThe course will introduce the foundations of learning and making predictions from data. We will study basic concepts such as trading goodness of fit and model complexitiy. We will discuss important machine learning algorithms used in practice, and provide hands-on experience in a course project.
Inhalt- Linear regression (overfitting, cross-validation/bootstrap, model selection, regularization, [stochastic] gradient descent)
- Linear classification: Logistic regression (feature selection, sparsity, multi-class)
- Kernels and the kernel trick (Properties of kernels; applications to linear and logistic regression); k-nearest neighbor
- Neural networks (backpropagation, regularization, convolutional neural networks)
- Unsupervised learning (k-means, PCA, neural network autoencoders)
- The statistical perspective (regularization as prior; loss as likelihood; learning as MAP inference)
- Statistical decision theory (decision making based on statistical models and utility functions)
- Discriminative vs. generative modeling (benefits and challenges in modeling joint vy. conditional distributions)
- Bayes' classifiers (Naive Bayes, Gaussian Bayes; MLE)
- Bayesian approaches to unsupervised learning (Gaussian mixtures, EM)

KurzbeschreibungWe discuss modern statistical methods for data analysis, including methods for data exploration, prediction and inference. We pay attention to algorithmic aspects, theoretical properties and practical considerations. The class is hands-on and methods are applied using the statistical programming language R.
LernzielThe student obtains an overview of modern statistical methods for data analysis, including their algorithmic aspects and theoretical properties. The methods are applied using the statistical programming language R.
Voraussetzungen / BesonderesAt least one semester of (basic) probability and statistics.

Programming experience is helpful but not required.

Only for DAS in Data Science.
O8 KP17AF. Perez Cruz, O. Verscheure, T. Hofmann
KurzbeschreibungThe capstone project is part of the DAS in Data Science and is an opportunity to apply the knowledge acquired in the program in an independent, real-world project.
LernzielTo apply the knowledge acquired in the program in an independent, real-world project.
InhaltThe capstone project can be done under the supervision of the Swiss Data Science Center, or of any core or adjunct faculty of Data Science.

The project has to be finished within 6 months.
Deadline for a project the following semester conducted at the SDSC is mid June/mid December.
