Some resource worth mentioning:

1. Lectures/Starters/0 - Reading Roadmap

• For those who wants to know what papers to read. I have listed ONLY the most important papers you need to read in the field of machine learning

2. Lectures/Starters/0 - Installation

• For newbies who have trouble installing Python and other tools

3. Lectures/Starters/0 - Course Notations

• Understanding notations is the first step towards conquering math, so take a look and familiarized with it

4. Lectures/Advanced

• These are lessons I do not intend to teach given the time limit. It is intended for self-study.

5. Self-Exercises

• Every Lecture has a lab folder containing the assessment and solution. Anyhow, I also compile a list of possible exercises for student's self learning inside the Self-Exercises folder.

6. AIT-2020

• The file "0. Course Introduction.ipynb" contains how I run the course. This course is a 15 weeks course, each week having two labs of 3 hours each. Each lab always end with the assessment and solution.

I would also like to give credits to several githubs that I have revised to create this:

• https://github.com/drgona/Pytorch_bootcamp_Udemy
• https://github.com/SethHWeidman/DLFS_code
• https://github.com/jakevdp/PythonDataScienceHandbook

The course is structured into 3 big components, mostly focusing on preprocessing and modeling perspectives:
