Introduction to Machine Learning for the Sciences
share
This is an introductory machine learning course specifically developed with STEM students in mind. We discuss supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning. The notes start with an exposition of machine learning methods without neural networks, such as principle component analysis, t-SNE, and linear regression. We continue with an introduction to both basic and advanced neural network structures such as conventional neural networks, (variational) autoencoders, generative adversarial networks, restricted Boltzmann machines, and recurrent neural networks. Questions of interpretability are discussed using the examples of dreaming and adversarial attacks.
