Introduction to Machine Learning

About

Lecture Content

Recent advancements in machine learning made it a major tool in big data analytics. We daily face applications of deep learning in image, speech and video recognitions, pledging for the efficiency of these methods in learning various complex tasks from data itself. With much care, advanced machine learning techniques are growingly used in Science, yielding better results than otherwise possible to Physicists. In this lecture, we will introduce the basics of machine learning and illustrate collider-specific aspects of deep learning by reviewing state-of-the-art applications of machine learning in high energy physics. The introduction to Machine Learning from Glen Cowan https://indico.cern.ch/event/1132551/ is highly recommended and repeated content will be avoided wherever possible.
