CME 250: Introduction to Machine Learning

A Short course presenting the principles behind when, why, and how to apply modern machine learning algorithms. We will discuss a framework for reasoning about when to apply various machine learning techniques, emphasizing questions of over-fitting/under-fitting, regularization, interpretability, supervised/unsupervised methods, and handling of missing data. The principles behind various algorithms--the why and how of using them--will be discussed, while some mathematical detail underlying the algorithms--including proofs--will not be discussed. Unsupervised machine learning algorithms presented will include k-means clustering, principal component analysis (PCA), and independent component analysis (ICA). Supervised machine learning algorithms presented will include support vector machines (SVM), classification and regression trees (CART), boosting, bagging, and random forests. Imputation, the lasso, and cross-validation concepts will also be covered. The R programming language will be used for examples, though students need not have prior exposure to R. Prerequisite: undergraduate-level linear algebra and statistics; basic programming experience (R/Matlab/Python).

CME 250A: Machine Learning on Big Data

A short course presenting the application of machine learning methods to large datasets.Topics include: brief review of the common issues of machine learning, such as, memorizing/overfitting vs learning, test/train splits, feature engineering, domain knowledge, fast/simple/dumb learners vs slow/complex/smart learners; moving your model from your laptop into a production environment using Python (scikit) or R on small data (laptop sized) at first; building math clusters using the open source H2O product to tackle Big Data, and finally to some model building on terabyte sized datasets. Prereqresites: basic knowledge of statistics, matrix algebra, and unix-like operating systems; basic file and text manipulation skills with unix tools: pipes, cut, paste, grep, awk, sed, sort, zip; programming skill at the level of CME211 or CS106A.

CME 257: Advanced Topics in Scientific Computing with Julia

This short course runs from the 2nd to the 5th week of the quarter. This course will rapidly introduce students to the new Julia language, with the goal of giving students the knowledge and experience necessary to begin contributing to the language and package ecosystem while using Julia for their own scientific computing needs. The course will begin with learning the basics of Julia with an emphasis on its object-oriented features, and then introduce students to Github and package development. Additional topics include: common packages, interfacing with C shared object libraries, and Julia's core linear algebra implementation. Lectures will be interactive, with an emphasis on collaboration and learning by example. Prerequisites: Data structures at the level of CS106B, experience with one or more scientific computing languages (e.g. Python, Matlab, or R), and some familiarity with C/C++ and the Unix shell. No prior experience with Julia or Github is required.
