To introduce the fundamentals of machine learning which include basic and advanced classification methods, clustering and feature selection. To enable the students to apply some of the learned methods to real data sets.

Indicative content includes:

• Basics of machine learning: Concepts of object, class, feature. Training and testing protocols. Error estimation. ROC curves. Supervised and unsupervised learning.
• Classification methods: basic classifiers and classifier ensembles.
• Feature selection.
• Clustering.
• Neural networks: standard architectures and deep learning.
