Introduction to Machine Learning in Python

This repository provides instructional material for machine learning in python. The material is used for two classes taught at NYU Tandon by Sundeep Rangan:
  • EE-UY / CS-UY 4563: Introduction to Machine Learning (Undergraduate)
  • EL-GY 6123: Introduction to Machine Learning (Graduate)
Anyone is free to use and copy this material (at their own risk!). But, please cite the material if you use the material in your own class.

Pre-requisites

  • All the software can be run on any laptop (Windows, MAC or UNIX). Instructions are also provided to run the code in Google Cloud Platform on a virtual machine (VM).
  • Both classes assume no python or ML experience. However, experience with some programming language (preferably object-oriented) is required.
  • To follow all the mathematical details and to complete the homework exercises, the class assumes undergraduate probability, linear algebra and multi-variable calculus.

Feedback

Any feedback is welcome. If you find errors, have ideas for improvements, or want to voice any other thoughts, create an issueand we will try to get to it. Even better, fork the repository, make the changes yourself and create a pull request and we will try to merge it in. See the excellent instructions from the former TA Ish Jain.

Python Machine Learning Notebooks (Tutorial style)

Python Machine Learning Notebooks (Tutorial style) Dr. Tirthajyoti Sarkar, Sunnyvale, CA ( You can connect with me on LinkedIn here ) Essential codes/demo IPython notebooks for jump-starting machine learning/data science. You can start with this article that I wrote in Heartbeat magazine (on Medium platform): "Some Essential Hacks and Tricks for Machine Learning with Python" Essential tutorial-type notebooks on Pandas and Numpy Jupyter notebooks covering a wide range of functions and operations on the topics of NumPy, Pandans, Seaborn, matplotlib etc. Basics of Numpy array Basics of Pandas DataFrame Basics of Matplotlib and Descriptive Statistics Tutorial-type notebooks covering regression, classification, clustering, dimensionality reduction, and some basic neural network algorithms Regression Simple linear regression with t-statistic generation Multiple ways to do linear regression in Python and their speed comparison ( check the article I wr...

AutoML-Papers

Awesome-AutoML-Papers A curated list of automated machine learning papers, articles, tutorials, slides and projects. Introduction to AutoML Machine learning (ML) has achieved considerable successes in recent years and an ever-growing number of disciplines rely on it. However, this success crucially relies on human machine learning experts to perform the following tasks: Preprocess the data Select appropriate features Select an appropriate model family Optimize model hyperparameters Postprocess machine learning models Critically analyze the results obtained. As the complexity of these tasks is often beyond non-ML-experts, the rapid growth of machine learning applications has created a demand for off-the-shelf machine learning methods that can be used easily and without expert knowledge. We call the resulting research area that targets progressive automation of machine learning  AutoML . AutoML draws on many disciplines of machine learning, prominently including ...

Deep Learning Project

An end to end tutorial of a machine learning pipeline This tutorial tries to do what most Most Machine Learning tutorials available online do not. It is not a 30 minute tutorial which teaches you how to "Train your own neural network" or "Learn deep learning in under 30 minutes". It's a full pipeline which you would need to do if you actually work with machine learning - introducing you to all the parts, and all the implementation decisions and details that need to be made. The dataset is not one of the standard sets like MNIST or CIFAR, you will make you very own dataset. Then you will go through a couple conventional machine learning algorithms, before finally getting to deep learning! In the fall of 2016, I was a Teaching Fellow (Harvard's version of TA) for the graduate class on "Advanced Topics in Data Science (CS209/109)" at Harvard University. I was in-charge of designing the class project given to the students, and this tutorial has...
