NYU Tandon's Summer Program for Machine Learning introduces students to the computer science, data analyses, mathematical techniques, and logic that drive the fields of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI). The program is a 2 week, full-day summer program open to high school students who have successfully completed Algebra 2 or equivalent and have had some programming experience in any language. Lessons cover fundamental knowledge behind video and image recognition technologies; interactive voice controls for homes; autonomous vehicles; real-time monitoring and traffic control; cutting-edge diagnostic medical technologies, and other technologies that are a part of our daily lives.
Machine Learning introduces students to the computer science, data analyses, mathematical techniques, and logic that drive the fields of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI). Students learn core principles in ML such as model development through cross validation, linear regressions, and neural networks. Participants will develop an understanding of how logic and mathematics are applied both to "teach" a computer to perform specific tasks on its own and to improve continuously at doing so along the way. A strong emphasis is put on students learning the principles of engineering problem solving, and how these techniques can be used to tackle societal challenges.
