AI Intermediate: Machine Learning Internals and Basic Natural Language Processing
Machine learning is so pervasive today that you probably use it dozens of times a day without knowing it. Many researchers also think it is the best way to make progress towards human-level AI. This training session provides a deep dive into machine learning, data mining, and statistical pattern recognition.
 
The demonstrations will contain:
- 
Supervised learning (parametric/non-parametric algorithms, support vector machines, 
 kernels).
- 
Unsupervised learning (clustering, dimensionality reduction, recommender systems). 
- 
Deep dive into ARIMA based models for Time-series data. 
 
The final part will completely focus on Natural Language-based
case studies and the models used for that. 
First Case study is Parts of Speech tagging and the second one being Recognizing Spoken words using probability-based Hidden Markov Model.
Key skills covered:
- 
Measuring and Tuning performance of ML algorithms 
- 
Most effective machine learning techniques 
- 
Use tools like Scikit for ML tasks 
- 
Best practices in innovation as it pertains to machine learning and AI 
- 
You'll learn about not only the theoretical underpinnings of learning, but also gain the practical know-how needed to quickly and powerfully apply these techniques to new problems 
- 
You will learn how to Prototype and then productionize
