Course Description:	-
Course Objectives:	This course on Machine Learning will explain how to build systems that learn and adapt using real-world applications (such as robotics and brain wave signal understanding). Some of the topics to be covered include reinforcement learning, neural networks, genetic algorithms and genetic programming, parametric learning (density estimation), clustering, and so forth. The course will be project-oriented, with emphasis placed on writing software implementations of learning algorithms applied to real-world problems.
