Overview
Key facts
What is Machine Learning?” would be the fundamental learning objective of the MLSS program. Diagnosing disease, predicting weather events, identifying fraud, and personal assistants who anticipate our next desire (Alexa, Siri, Cortana, etc.), we have all heard about the new amazing tasks machine learning can do.
However, do you understand how these algorithms work and when we can expect them to work and, perhaps more importantly, when and why they fail? As a data scientist or machine-learning practitioner, you will be asked to explain how your algorithm works when it works and why your algorithm fails. Duke Kunshan University's Machine Learning - Foundational Algorithms will discuss reasons why algorithms may fail in this summer.
