Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This course aims to provide a holistic overview of the modern Statistical Learning toolbox. This course emphasizes on understanding the intuition behind the tools and not on deriving the underlying mathematics. We will make productive use of analytics tools available in Python. While the class focuses on simplified models, it aims to bridge the classroom knowledge and business applications. Topics will include linear regression, generalized linear regression, resampling methods, model selection, regularization, etc.
