The E-learning course starts by refreshing the basic concepts of the analytics process model: data preprocessing, analytics and post processing. We then discuss decision trees and ensemble methods (bagging, boosting, random forests), neural networks, support vector machines (SVMs), Bayesian networks, survival analysis, social networks, monitoring and backtesting analytical models. Throughout the course, we extensively refer to our industry and research experience. The E-learning course consists of more than 20 hours of movies, each 5 minutes on average. Quizzes are included to facilitate the understanding of the material.

About this course: Learn about artificial neural networks and how they're being used for machine learning, as applied to speech and object recognition, image segmentation, modeling language and human motion, etc. We'll emphasize both the basic algorithms and the practical tricks needed to get them to work well. This course contains the same content presented on Coursera beginning in 2013. It is not a continuation or update of the original course. It has been adapted for the new platform. Please be advised that the course is suited for an intermediate level learner - comfortable with calculus and with experience programming (Python).

Training strategies have long since stopped being considered as'nice to have' motivational activity and more and more organisations are expecting close alignment of training and business in order to make training strategies effective. Some of the key expectations of the business from training include outcome driven approach, velocity in training delivery, adaptation to the dynamic needs of the business and tuning to the millennial mindsets in the design of the programme. In this context, it is prudent to take advantage of digital capabilities and design the strategy such that role-specific competency road map is built, which in turn is matched with the training modules that the employees are supported with. The HR Information Systems, Performance Management system and the Learning Management Systems should be integrated and provide the bedrock system for talent development for the organisation. The learning paths put in place for the employees should be supported with the right learning ecosystem both offline and online and be able to switch from one world to the other in a seamless fashion.

About this course: Machine learning is the science of getting computers to act without being explicitly programmed. In the past decade, machine learning has given us self-driving cars, practical speech recognition, effective web search, and a vastly improved understanding of the human genome. Machine learning is so pervasive today that you probably use it dozens of times a day without knowing it. Many researchers also think it is the best way to make progress towards human-level AI. In this class, you will learn about the most effective machine learning techniques, and gain practice implementing them and getting them to work for yourself.

I'm a software engineer with 10 years of experience who recently decided to switch my focus to machine learning. I did the coursera course and did CS231n: Convolutional Neural Networks for Visual Recognition, read up on basic theory, did some image processing networks like VGG, Resnets and most recently trying to get Faster-RCNN to work, so my currently knowledge is ML basics and heavily focussed on ML in the Image domain. I recently landed my first ML job at a company that does mostly NLP, so I lack a lot of knowledge in that domain. I'm currently reading the NLTK book, which has been very approachable in introducing basic concepts in a code-focussed way. So I was wondering if anyone could point me to some good mid to advanced level resources (online courses/videos/books) to get up to speed with where the field is at now, to help me understand current research and more advanced concepts?

Machine Learning is one of the most exciting fields in the world. Every week we discover something new, something amazing, something revolutionary. It's incredible, but it can also be overwhelming. That's why we created This Week in Machine Learning! Each week we publish a curated list of Machine Learning stories as a resource to help you keep pace with all these exciting developments.

Previously, I had started this conversation with the saying "I am not a Geek, but I need a job too…". Here is why: Technological anxiety (oh yes, it is a thing). I don't want to be a victim of the inevitable wave of "robots taking over our jobs" which is a simplistic explanation for the impact of advancements in technology in the workplace. The idea that half of today's jobs may vanish has changed my view of my children's future. Quincy Larson, Teacher at FreeCodeCamp (an open-source community that helps you learn to code, build pro bono projects for nonprofits, and get a job as a developer) has not stopped in his attempt to get more people coding.

A new report titled "Artificial Intelligence and Life in 2030" explores the role of AI in various aspects of society and considers implications for our future. The increasing personalization of learning due to intelligent systems and the skills likely required for jobs in an AI filled future are important to consider. "While formal education will not disappear, the Study Panel believes that MOOC's and other forms of online education will become part of learning at all levels, from K-12 through university, in a blended classroom experience. This development will facilitate more customizable approaches to learning, in which students can learn at their own pace using educational techniques that work best for them. Online education systems will learn as the students learn, supporting rapid advances in our understanding of the learning process. Learning analytics, in turn, will accelerate the development of tools for personalized education."

The "Learn SQL the Hard Way" and "SQL Problems & Solutions" are definitely worth looking in to. If you're looking for something slightly more fun and interactive, try GalaXQL. GalaXQL is a visual platform, offering lessons on SQL in a database of fictional galaxies. The galaxy rendering reflects the changes you make in the database.
