Aims

1. To understand and to be able to apply machine learning concepts for analyzing data and signals, in particular in the context of regression and prediction problems; 2. To understand and to be able to apply linear and nonlinear techniques for data visualization; 3. To be able to evaluate the performances of these methods through appropriate techniques; 4. To be able to choose between existing machine learning techniques, according to the nature of the data and signals to be analyzed.

Content " Linear regression " Nonlinear regression with Multi-Layer-Perceptrons " Clustering and vector quantization " Nonlinear regression with Radial-Basis Function Networks, Kernel regression " Probabilistic models for Regression " Ensemble models " Feature selection " Model selection " Principal Component Analysis " Nonlinear dimensionality reduction and data visualization " Independent Component Analysis
Other information The course necessitates only a basic knowledge in linear algebra. In addition to the course itself there are exercise sessions organized on computers, and students must realize d a project aims at applying machine learning techniques in a specific application context. The exam is oral (if the number of students remains limited enough); the project report is evaluated too.
