Machine Learning Crash Course
summary
A whirlwind, hands-on tour that actually names models, data and outcomes: uses SVMs and scikit-learn for sign-language classification from leap motion joint coordinates, finds the keyboard UI fails and pivots to an educational game that works, forecasts Texas hourly load with k‑nearest neighbors achieving about 3% mean absolute error, mentions Facebook profit and Google causal tool, and builds a job-filter using bag‑of‑words + logistic regression that initially hits a 20% error due to class imbalance but improves by ranking with predicted probabilities.
