Overview
The course aims to provide a systematic introduction to modern machine learning models, starting from basic concepts and mathematical foundations and delving into deep aspects such as attention mechanisms in neural networks and geometric machine learning. The course covers the application of machine learning to various types of data, including text, images, time series, and others.
The course contains both sufficient theoretical material and practical seminars using datasets of different natures. The coursework involves implementing machine learning algorithms to consolidate understanding of the theory, as well as lab work to acquire skills of conducting full-cycle workflow. Upon successful completion, participants will be able to apply basic machine learning techniques in practice, explain the obtained results, and comfortably explore advanced courses in various machine learning areas.
The course is designed for technical professionals who seek a deep understanding of the structure of modern machine learning techniques. It is suitable for both beginners and practising specialists who wish to systematise and expand their knowledge in this area.

Course materials
Books
Prerequisites
Basic maths knowledge: Linear algebra: vectors, dot products, linear functions, matrices, matrix decompositions Calculus: multidimensional functions, derivatives, gradients, matrix derivatives Optimisation: definition of optimisation problem, convex functions
Programming: Python: functions, classes, wrappers Libraries: numpy, scipy, pandas, matplotlib
Methodology
The course consists of lectures (with mostly theoretical stuff) and practical sessions with coding following each lecture. Classes are offline, and visiting is essential for successful course passing.
Each class you will have a small test to reinforce previous class knowledge and understanding.
There are three laboratory works that are required to be done by each student to create skills for making the whole pipeline of modelling.
Grading
Vladislav Goncharenko is a machine learning engineer specializing in modern Computer Vision, Deep Learning and Recommender Systems fields.

FAQ
Will I receive a certificate after completion?
Yes. Upon completion of the course, you will receive a certificate signed by the director of the program your course belonged to.
Do I need a visa?
This depends on your case. Please check with the Spanish or Thai consulate in your country of residence about visa requirements. We will do our part to provide you with the necessary documents, such as the Certificate of Enrollment.
Can I get a discount?
Yes. The easiest way to enroll in a course at a discounted price is to register for multiple courses. Registering for multiple courses will reduce the cost per individual course. Please ask the Admissions Office for more information about the other kinds of discounts we offer and what you can do to receive one.
