Description
6.S064 is an undergraduate introduction to machine learning. The ability to predict gives a lot of power -- and machine learning is all about prediction. We design and understand computer programs that learn from experience for the purpose of prediction or control. In fact, it is often difficult for a human to specify or know exactly how to solve a prediction task. But it is easy to provide a few examples or training data to illustrate correct and incorrect answers, as if grading possible answers to questions. In this course, you will learn about principles and algorithms for turning training data into effective automated predictions.
