πŸ—“οΈ Week 02 - Introduction to Linear Regression

Theme: Supervised Learning

Author

This week in the lecture, you’ll be introduced to the first family of algorithms in this course: linear regression models. We will also introduce the concept of supervised learning and the main differences between regression and classification problems.

Linear regression is the most fundamental and widely used machine learning algorithm. It is the basis for many other algorithms and the first algorithm you should learn when studying machine learning.

The topic of your formative (due on W04) will be released this week (see this page).
