The diploma requires an undergraduate knowledge of statistics, (descriptive statistics, regression, sampling distributions, hypothesis testing, interval estimation, etc.) calculus, linear algebra (vectors, matrices, derivatives), and probability.
The admission process will involve a short eligibility test on the above topics to assess participant readiness for the diploma.
Participants are required to possess an intermediate knowledge of Python since all assignments/application projects will be done using the Python programming language. Emeritus offers a complimentary Python for Data Analytics certificate course to meet this prerequisite. Participants who successfully complete this certificate course will receive a digital certificate of completion from Emeritus.
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning algorithms are transforming systems, experiences, processes, and entire industries. It’s no wonder that business leaders see these data-driven technologies as fundamental for the future—and that practitioners fluent in both fields are in high demand.
We are fascinated by their world-changing potential, and we’ve created the Postgraduate Diploma in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence (E-Learning), to help students understand the fundamentals of AI and machine learning and how to apply them to solve complex, real-world problems.
The average Teacher-Student ratio in the program is 1:300.
SUPERVISED LEARNING
UNSUPERVISED LEARNING
The diploma requires learners to work on application assignments, which require learners to apply the concepts they have learned to datasets and derive inferences. These assignments are intentionally made to be challenging and we expect learners to spend substantial time and effort solving them. At the end of the diploma, we expect learners to be able to apply the concepts to solve many of the business problems they face at their workplace.
You will build a movie recommendation engine by applying collaborative filtering and topic modelling techniques. You use a dataset which contains 20 million viewer ratings of 27,000 movies.
You will write code to predict house prices based on several parameters available in the Ames City dataset compiled by Dean De Cock using least squares linear regression and Bayesian linear regression.
You will predict the human activity (walking, sitting, standing) that corresponds to the accelerometer and gyroscope measurements by applying the nearest neighbours technique.
You will detect potential frauds using credit card transaction data. You will apply the random forest method to identify fraudulent transactions.
You will create market segments using the US Census dataset and by applying the k-means clustering method.
Apply advanced search techniques from Grid Search and Random Search to A* to identify parameters appropriate.
Apply decision making across voting election data (online voting data for US elections)
Apply the Data Science workflow to a classic e-commerce dataset to predict retention and customer sales over time (Amazon sales dataset)
Implement constraint optimization techniques in TensorFlow for Loan Approvals dataset
Apply OpenAI Gym, TensorFlow, and PyTorch to train systems such as Stanford Question Answering Dataset
Explore text analysis, text mining, sentiment analysis with classic text data sets (i.e. Twitter, Yelp, Wikipedia) and packages such as SpaCy and NLTK
