The Syllabus

Module 1: Introduction to the AI Landscape
  • Understanding the data: What is it telling us?
  • Prediction: What is going to happen?
  • Decision Making: What should we do?
  • Causal Inference: Did it work?

Module 2: Data Exploration - Structured Data
  • Asking the right questions to understand the data.
  • Understanding how data visualization makes data clearer.
  • Performing Exploratory Data Analysis using PCA.
  • Clustering the data through K-means & DBSCAN clustering.
  • Evaluating the quality of clusters obtained.

Module 3: Prediction Methods - Regression
  • The idea of regression and predicting a continuous output.
  • How do you build a model that best fits your data?
  • How do you quantify the degree of uncertainty?
  • What do you do when you don’t have enough data?
  • What lies beyond linear regression?

Module 4: Decision Systems
  • Understand the Decision Tree model and the mechanics behind its predictions.
  • Learn to evaluate the performance of classification models.
  • Understand the concepts of Ensemble Learning and Bagging.
  • Learn how Random Forests aggregate the predictions of multiple Decision Trees.

Module 5: Data Exploration - Unstructured Data
  • Understand the concept of unstructured data, and how natural language is an example.
  • Understand the business applications for Natural Language Processing.
  • Learn the techniques and methods to analyze text data.
  • Apply the knowledge gained towards the business use case of sentiment analysis.

Module 6: Recommendation Systems
  • Learn the concept of recommendation systems and potential business applications.
  • Understand the sparse data problem that necessitates recommendation systems.
  • Learn about potentially simple solutions to the recommendation problem.

Module 7: Data Exploration - Temporal Data
  • Understand temporal data and how it represents a different data modality.
  • Understand the idea behind Time Series forecasting
  • Learn about the concept of Stationary Time Series, testing for stationarity and conversion techniques to transform non-stationary time series into stationary.

Module 8: Prediction Methods - Neural Networks
  • Understand the key concepts involved in Neural Networks.
  • Learn about the encoding process taking place in the neural network layers, and how non-linearities are introduced.
  • Understand how the forward propagation happens through the layered architecture of neural networks and how the first prediction is achieved.
  • Learn about the cost function used to evaluate the neural network’s performance, and how gradient descent is used in a backpropagation cycle to minimize error.
  • Understand the critical optimization techniques used in gradient descent

Module 9: Computer Vision Methods
  • Learn about spatial concepts of images such as locality and translation invariance.
  • Understand the working of filters and convolutions, and how they achieve feature extraction to generate encodings.
  • Learn about how these concepts are used in the structure of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and understand what CNNs actually learn from image data.
