Description: This course is a graduate-level course of the online Master Data Science (MDS) program in the machine learning specialization. This is an advanced machine learning course, where students will study fundamental concepts of probability theory and statistical theory, understand various machine learning topics from the viewpoint of statistics. Furthermore, the course will discuss several practical machine learning problems (e.g., generalization, robustness, and explainable artificial intelligence) and the state-of-the-art statistical algorithms that can solve these practical problems in the real world.
