Course Objectives: | This course aims to teach basic algorithms used in Machine Learning using R programming language. The course is based on learning by doing principle. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1. Basics and uses of machine learning 2. Regression analysis 3. Classification 4. Clustering 5. Model choice 6. Forecasting and measuring forecast performance. |
After introducing key concepts of machine learning and discussing the relationship of machine learning with statistics and data science, basic algorithms used in machine learning will be taught using a learning by doing approach. For this reason, students will be encouraged to try themselves, make mistakes and learn from their mistakes. Students are expected to apply what they have learned by working on a data and topic that they will choose together with the teacher of the course in groups of 2-3 people. The final exam will be in the form of oral examination where students present the project that has been worked on throughout the semester. There is no requirement for this course but familiarity with R programming language and basic statistical concepts will be assumed. |
