How good is NPTEL IIT Madras' machine learning course?

NPTEL (National Programme on Technology Enhanced Learning) IIT Madras' machine learning course is considered to be one of the best online resources for learning machine learning. It is very comprehensive, covering a wide range of topics in machine learning, and is taught by well-known experts in the field. Many students have found it to be very helpful in their studies and career development. My friend recently joined this course and shared her experience of the classes in the first week.

The lectures are conducted live and the first one gave an insight into the structure of the course. To make the most out of this course, one needs to have certain abilities.

• Skilled in Python programming
• Basic knowledge of MATLAB.
• Knowledge of Mathematical topics of “Engineering Mathematics”.

The live lectures will be conducting discussions on

• Modern algorithm of Machine Learning (ML).
• Importance of journals published on ML algorithms.
• Application of the knowledge acquired using open-source tools like TensorFlow.
• Application of algorithm in specific engineering applications.
• Implementation of ML algorithm in live project.
