Birla Institute of Technology and Science, K.K.

Birla Goa Campus


Center for Technical Education
Second Semester – 2021-2022

Course Title: Intro To ML and DL

Instructors: Shreyas Bhat, Aditya Agrawal, Abhijit Deo


Mentors: Hardik Shah

Course Description:
Machine Learning is a field that is developing at a tremendous pace today. It becomes
all the more important that today’s engineers are aware of the nitty-gritty of Machine
Learning. This course aims to provide the students with an in-depth knowledge of
Machine Learning, including theoretical and practical aspects. The course will also focus
on making sure students are accustomed to learning new concepts
independently through research papers, MOOCs, and others’ understanding of
people’s code. As the field has become much more diverse than before, this course
will also discuss basic concepts of recent Deep Learning and Reinforcement Learning
methods, which will help the students pursue their journey into these fields further.
