Machine Learning Course Notebooks

This repository contains Google Colab notebooks from a machine learning course, covering essential topics in regression, evaluation, and classification. Each notebook is designed to help you understand and implement fundamental concepts and techniques in machine learning.

Table of Contents

1. Optimization for Regression

• Understanding the Dataset: An introduction to the dataset used for regression tasks.
• Closed Form Solution: Analytical solution to linear regression using the normal equation.
• Batch Gradient Descent: Iterative optimization technique for minimizing the cost function.
• Polynomial Regression: Extending linear regression to capture non-linear relationships.
• Mini-Batch Gradient Descent: A variant of gradient descent that balances batch and stochastic methods.
• Step Sizes: Understanding the impact of learning rates on gradient descent convergence.

2. Evaluating Predictors

• Visualizing Different Errors: Analyzing and interpreting prediction errors.
• Picking the Best Polynomial Predictor: Model selection using validation techniques.
• Regularization: Techniques like L1 and L2 regularization to prevent overfitting.

3. Classification

• Understanding the Dataset: Overview of datasets used for binary and multiclass classification tasks.
• Binary Classification: Implementing and evaluating models for two-class problems.
• Multiclass Classification: Extending binary classification methods to handle multiple classes.
