Elements of Machine Learning

Dear Students, 
A kind reminder of Assignment #1 deadline is on 12th November (Wednesday 23:59 hrs) on CMS. 
Don't forget to register your team on CMS. Identical submissions without a team on CMS will be considered as plagiarism. 
No submissions will be allowed over emails and no deadline extensions under any circumstances. 

We once again remind you, we don't transfer the qualification to take the exam between semesters. 
If you wish to take an exam in Winter 25/26 you will have to complete the assignments and pass the threshold this semester to qualify for the exam. 

All the best!

Thank you. 

Best, 
Kavya 


 

Dear EML students,

Next week, we'll continue with Exercise Sheet 1: Problems 4 (Unless already discussed in your tutorial) and 5.

We’ll also use the time for a Q&A session on Assignment 1, so please bring any questions or points of confusion you may have. Your tutors will be happy to clarify the tasks and guide your understanding, but they won’t be providing full solutions.

Best regards,
Your EML Team

 

Dear all,

Unfortunately we suffered some technical problems last Thursday that made difficult to record the 1st lecture. I hope I will be able to record the following lectures. We will share the available links in the material section.

As for now, please recall to i) self assess your background using exercise sheet 0; ii) check the slides L00-L02 available in the material section; and iii) read chapters 1-3.1 from the ISLP book. I will reply to doubts during the lecture on Thursday. For additional questions or for those unable to attend the lecture, please remember to use the forum as communication channel. 

Best regards and see you all (hopefully without more technical challenges) on Thursday,

Prof. Valera

 

 

Dear EML students,

We have assigned you to tutorial groups based on your preferences. You can find your assigned tutorial slot on your Personal Status.

To make the tutorials more effective and organized, we will share a list of problems to be discussed each week. Tutors will go through each problem during the session, but we strongly encourage you to attempt them beforehand and bring any questions you may have to the tutorial.

For next week, we will focus on Problems 1, 2, 3, and, if time allows, Problem 4 from Exercise Sheet #1.

Best regards,
Your EML Team
