Abstract: Machine learning (ML) is the scientific study of algorithms and statistical models that computer systems use to perform a specific task without using explicit instructions, relying on patterns and inference instead. In this course, we will talk something about machine learning, including the evolution of machine learning, why is machine learning important, and some popular machine learning methods and its applications.
