I am currently taking a course in the verification of cyber-physical systems. When I say that, think formal and probabilistic verification of state machines for safety. It's a graduate course and the professor wants us all to do a large project. Anything that somewhat relates to the course material is fair game. I thought about mixing it together with machine learning.

This book examines machine learning models including logistic regression, decision trees, and support vector machines, and applies them to common problems such as categorizing documents and classifying images. It begins with the fundamentals of machine learning, introducing you to the supervised-unsupervised spectrum, the uses of training and test data, and evaluating models. You will learn how to use generalized linear models in regression problems, as well as solve problems with text and categorical features. You will be acquainted with the use of logistic regression, regularization, and the various loss functions that are used by generalized linear models. The book will also walk you through an example project that prompts you to label the most uncertain training examples.

I would recommend that you start with Introduction to Statistical Learning with R (usually shortened as ISLR). A lot of people have adapted the examples to Python if you google a bit and it's an excellent book that hides just enough complexity to not be overwhelming. Plus, once you have a good understanding of all of it, you can either graduate to the more extensive version (Elements of Statistical Learning, usually shortened as ESL) for a more rigorous treatment of the same thing, or choose to go for something different like Bishop's Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning. ISLR is free as a pdf and has a corresponding MOOC. ESL doesn't, but is also free on the author's website.

A basic understanding of how it is affecting our culture is critical for business, students, sales representatives and professionals. It is a topic that inspires St. Andrews alumnus Martin Brossman to gather big-picture insights which he will share in his presentation at noon on Friday, October 20 in LA104 on the Laurinburg campus. "There has never been any other time in life when so many aspects of our world are focused on advancing artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning as today," Martin Brossman said, "I believe students and professionals need a basic understanding of how Machine Learning and AI are progressing today because its influence on our life is growing rapidly. As our world gets more automated and AI gains greater dominance in our society, working on enhancing our best human qualities will give us a competitive advantage." About the Friday Science Series "Friday Science at St. Andrews seminar series consists of a seminar most Friday's of each semester. Speakers are from a diverse mix of folks including faculty, alumni, and speakers from outside the university. He provides customized coaching and training for individuals and groups, integrating digital marketing, social networking and reputation management. In Oct. 2009 he received St. Andrews' Ethel N. Fortner Writer and Community Award, St. Andrews University's highest literary award, for his first book, "Finding Our Fire - Enhancing men's connection to heart, passion, and strength." His books are available on Amazon. About St. Andrews University St. Andrews is a branch of Webber International University. The University's mission is to offer students an array of business, liberal arts and sciences, and pre-professional programs of study that create a life transforming educational opportunity which is practical in its application, global in its scope, and multi-disciplinary in its general education core. Students will acquire depth of knowledge and expertise in their chosen field of study, balanced by breadth of knowledge across various disciplines. Special emphasis is placed on enhancing oral and written communication, and critical thinking skills. The University awards degrees at the bachelor and master levels at locations in Florida and North Carolina, as well as at the associate level in Florida. Traditional classroom, online, and hybrid learning environments are available. Opportunities exist for students to draw on the courses and programs of study at both locations through online courses and/or periods of residence at either campus. Webber's programs in Florida focus on the worldwide business environment, and emphasize development of skills in administration and strategic planning, applied modern business practices, and entrepreneurship. The St. Andrews branch campus in North Carolina offers an array of traditional liberal arts and sciences and pre-professional programs of study."

A popular approach to semi-supervised learning proceeds by endowing the input data with a graph structure in order to extract geometric information and incorporate it into a Bayesian framework. We introduce new theory that gives appropriate scalings of graph parameters that provably lead to a well-defined limiting posterior as the size of the unlabeled data set grows. Furthermore, we show that these consistency results have profound algorithmic implications. When consistency holds, carefully designed graph-based Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms are proved to have a uniform spectral gap, independent of the number of unlabeled inputs. Several numerical experiments corroborate both the statistical consistency and the algorithmic scalability established by the theory.

For Peter Cao, who has dedicated 16 years of his career to teaching chemistry in a high school in central China's Anhui province, in every teacher there lives a "doctor". He spends two to three hours a day grading assignments, a process the 38-year-old describes as "diagnosing". "By reviewing the homework of my pupils, I can have an overall picture about their understanding of the lessons I give," Cao said, adding that this "diagnosis" helps him draw up a teaching plan for the following day. But if the Chinese online education start-up Master Learner has its way, Cao and his 14 million fellow teachers in China will be able to hand this time-consuming review process to a "super teacher", a powerful "brain" capable of answering nearly 500 million of the most tested questions in China's middle schools as well as scoring high points in each Gaokao test, China's life-changing college entrance exam, for the past 30 years. If the super teacher sounds too smart to be human, that is because it is not.

Note: This webinar is geared towards mid-size enterprises. A large enterprise version aired previously. Artificial intelligence makes the use of computing simpler than it has ever been and allows software to accomplish what previously we believed only humans could do. Discover how artificial intelligence will improve computer interfaces, applications, real-world devices and ecosystems of computing. Register anyway and we'll send you the recording after the webinar.

A collaborative course incorporating labs in TensorFlow and peer brainstorming along with lectures.

The emergence of big data has been transformational in many areas in science and engineering – biology, health sciences, material science, physics, and so on. At the heart of this transformation is statistical machine learning, subfield of computer science that aims at studying and developing algorithms that can analyze large volumes of data. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers, both from USA and Armenia, who work on machine learning (ML) and other scientific disciplines that are poised to benefit from the recent advances in ML. During the Soviet times, Armenia was one of the main hubs of cybernetics research in ex-Soviet Union, where centers such as the Mergelyan Institute (one of the three major producers of computer equipment in former USSR), and the Computing Center of the National Armenian Academy of Science (currently the Institute for Informatics and Automation Problems) conducted cutting edge research on topics ranging from robotics to algorithmic game theory to automated machine translation. Currently, Armenia has a small but vibrant research community in machine learning and data science, some members of which have participated in past and present DoD-sponsored research projects in collaboration with US colleagues.
