I appreciate the level of detail Andrew goes into each of his videos and how he explains the concepts as well as the math behind each algorithm.</p>
<p>Here are the topics that were covered in the course:</p>
<ul>
<li>Supervised Learning
<ul>
<li>Linear regression</li>
<li>Logistic regression</li>
<li>Neural Networks</li>
<li>Support vector machines</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Unsupervised Learning
<ul>
<li>K-means</li>
<li>Principal Component Analysis</li>
<li>Anomaly Detection</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Recommender Systems</li>
<li>Large Scale Machine Learning</li>
<li>Advice on building a machine learning system</li>
</ul>
<p>Along the way, Andrew also discussed various tips that can improve your algorithm and also common mistakes that people make when building machine learning systems.</p>
<p>I really appreciate the work put into developing this course and I am glad I decided to take it. I would highly recommend anyone interested in machine learning to definitely take this course as it provides a solid introduction to various machine learning topics and sets a good foundation for jumping into more advanced courses.</p>Carlos MastalliI’ve recently completed Andrew Ng’s Machine Learning course on Coursera and I am blown away at how clearly he explains and breaks down machine learning concepts and algorithms.

<p>I’m currently in the process of updating the look of my site. I’m working on creating a clean page for projects with sections for different topics/technologies and also nice way of displaying my blog posts. I eventually want to add tags to my projects and posts and include a way of viewing all of those tags, but that will come later. I’m still trying to relearn my way around HTML, CSS, and Jekyll.</p>
<p>The following are features I want to include for my site:</p>
<ul>
<li>Project Page
<ul>
<li>List of all projects</li>
<li>Different sections for different technologies used/different topics</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Blog Page
<ul>
<li>Nice way of displaying blog posts. (What’s nice?)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Tags
<ul>
<li>List of all the tags for posts and projects</li>
<li>Click on any tag to jump to all the posts/projects with that tag</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Hopefully I can finish all of this before the end of the week.</p>

<p>I hope to use this site not only for my portfolio, but also to document and record my progress on different projects/online courses on my path to becoming a Data Scientist. I hope to post a blog post at least every couple of days.</p>
<p>That’s all for now!</p>Carlos MastalliNew Year, New…..Site I’m currently in the process of updating the look of my site.
