Location on this date: Hybrid (choose either online or in-person)
Tutors: Kathryn ColdhamOne of the great advances in technology is that machines can learn without humans teaching them explicit rules – e.g. letting machines train on samples of speech allows Siri to recognise your commands. Machine learning is a large part of artificial intelligence, and a mystery to most of us. This practical course teaches you how to program learning algorithms in Python. We will cover fundamentals of classification, natural language processing, financial predictions and much more. You will learn elements of data mining, how to choose a learning algorithm, and how to tweak parameters of the algorithm. We will briefly cover the theory behind the algorithms, so some maths knowledge is useful, but not required. To enrol, you must have experience with Python or a similar programming language, e.g. have taken City Lit’s Introduction to Python or Introduction to R programming course.
This course will be delivered online or in person. See the ‘What is the course about?’ section in course details for more information.Full fee £289.00 Senior fee £231.00 Concession £188.00 - Sing jazz 2Course start date: Wed 17 Sep 2025
