Rachael Naoum, Product Definition Engineer at Dassault Systems
I loved this course. At first, I was a bit intimidated, it's been a while since I've done any hardcore math. However, the layout of this course made it super easy to follow along with all the concepts and I felt very well-guided throughout the graded assignments. I like how the lectures are broken into short videos for each topic, making it easy to replay and digest. Very well-thought-out course.
Tolga Kaya, Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Sacred Heart University
This course allowed me to dig deeper [into] the foundations of machine learning and the underlying mechanism of the main algorithms that are used. As a MATLAB user, I particularly appreciated the utilization of MATLAB instead of straight black box python libraries.
Bill Bear, Agile Transformation Coach
Great course for learning the concepts and methods behind machine learning! The course was prepared and delivered in a thoughtful way that provided good challenges and plenty of helpful information. This is just the kind of result that I have come to expect with MIT xPRO.
Juharasha Shaik, Senior Staff Software Engineer at Visa
This course has helped me gain more understanding of the various algorithms that can be applied to the problems that we face during data analysis and modeling. I definitely recommend this course [for a] great understanding of the available tools/algorithms/methods to analyze various use cases and help model the solution.
