EECE 483: Machine Learning for Engineers

Electrical & Computer Engineer · 4 credits · Electrical&ComputerEngineering

Provides an introduction to machine learning with particular attention on real-world engineering applications. Theoretical foundation and application of supervised learning techniques such as regression and classification as well as unsupervised learning techniques such as clustering and dimensionality reduction. State-of-the-art deep learning algorithms as well as their implementation and use in solving engineering problems. Applications may include object detection and identification in images/videos, pattern recognition in speech/audio, and traffic prediction.

Offered in 1 of the 26 listed terms (Winter 2027).
