In this course students will learn to understand machine learning as a guided search in a space of possible hypotheses. The mathematical means to formulate a particular hypothesis class determines the learning paradigm, the discriminative power of a hypothesis, and the complexity of the learning process.
The lecture covers hypothesis spaces, model bias, regression for classification, logistic regression, effectiveness computation, loss function derivation, gradient descent, regularization, neural networks, decision trees, impurity functions, Bayesian learning. The lecture introduces concepts, algorithms, and theoretical backgrounds.
The accompanying lab treats both theoretical and applied tasks to deepen the understanding and hands-on experience of the field. Team work (2-3 students) is appreciated.
