Machine Learning Artificial Intelligence Master's Courses You Could Take

Introduction to Big Data and Data Science including an overview of the field, technical challenges, computational approaches, practical applications, structured and unstructured data processing, empirical methods in computer science, data analytics and learning, data visualization, privacy and ethics.

Aims to systematically introduce the concepts and analytical tools required to abstract engineering problems from applications, and to simulate and analyze such problems. Topics include dynamical systems modeling, stochastic models, queuing models, Markov chains, model identification, Monte-Carlo simulation, model reduction, agent-based modeling, large-scale networks, and applications to ecological, biological, and modern infrastructure systems.

Students use machine learning to extract clinically useful signals from wearable devices including inertial sensors such as accelerometers and gyroscopes. Applications of AI in healthcare as a whole are discussed, with a specific emphasis on wearable devices.

Introduction to visualization methods in data exploration. Topics include the use of space, form and color to communicate information; visualization of multi-dimensional data; data reduction methods such as principal component analysis and regression; methods for special domains such as geographic data and large graphs; and designing and implementing interactive interfaces.

Introduction to data mining which includes main data mining tasks, e.g. classification, clustering, association rules, and outlier detection, and some of the latest developments, e.g. mining spatial data and web data.

The theory and process to create systems that learn directly from data to make predictions and decisions. Topics include a wide variety of supervised learning methods, both regression and classification, with an emphasis on those that perform well on large feature sets. Ensemble methods are used to combine independent approaches efficiently.
