About This Course
Why not both? Machine learning methods, while formalized in the 1950s, have only recently become powerful enough to make a huge impact. These deep learning methods have performed better at early cancer detection than professional radiologists! From image detection and Snapchat filters to Natural Language Processing and Siri, machine learning is ready to push our technology into the future.
Start with Python, TensorFlow, Keras, and libraries used by industry experts to build neural networks and reward your computer for succeeding at its goals! Tweak your reward schemes and process your data so you can see your computer improve its learning. Put your skills to the test with datasets used by professionals, like MNIST and CIFAR-10, or even learn how to collect your own! You’ll build multiple neural networks from the ground up and watch them learn right before your eyes.
Topics Covered
- Use industry-standard technology like Tensorflow and Keras to build neural networks
- Develop coding and computational thinking skills
- Explore machine learning with Python
- Train models to learn without being directly coded
- Optimize learning rates and algorithms
- Prepare, aggregate, and clean datasets to train networks
Course Format
This machine learning summer camp is part of an intensive 2-week program running Monday through Friday (overnight at most locations with the option to stay the weekend within the two weeks). Your teen will learn in a lab on an inspiring university campus with a balanced daily schedule of assignment-driven workshops and outdoor/recreational activities. Courses are led by experienced instructors in a small-group setting. Learn more below.
Sample Schedule
With techniques used by industry professionals, students will build Python projects, create image recognition models, and analyze the different purposes of machine learning frameworks.
Here’s a sample of what a week in this machine learning course could look like! Please keep in mind that students will progress at varying paces; this is a general outline of key material and the overall student experience.
Portfolio-Boosting Diploma & Transcript
At the conclusion of your teen's course, they will receive an official iD Tech diploma and course transcript outlining the skills they learned over the session.
