Dear ML students,

The instructions for the ML re-exam have been finalized. You can find them here: https://cms.sic.saarland/ml/4/Exam_Instructions. Please read them carefully before the re-exam.

Note especially that while you do not need to register in the CMS, *you need to register in the LSF*. In case that is not possible, write us an e-mail before the registration deadline, which is one week before the exam.

In addition, we have again created a trial submission, such that you can solve possible technical difficulties beforehand: https://cms.sic.saarland/ml/submissions
The trial submission will be open until the day before the exam.

Best regards,
Prof. Isabel Valera

Dear all,

I believe some of you have encountered problems with the Bias-variance derivation in lectures L05-06. I have tried now to clarify the notations between slides 19 and 21. I hope the new version is easier to parse. Otherwise, please do not be afraid of asking via discord or at class on Wednesday.

Thanks,

Isabel Valera

The script is available here: https://cms.sic.saarland/ml/dl/73/Exam_question_examples.pdf

This Wednesday 21st of July, in the last lecture of the semester, I will be available to answer any question you may have regarding the exam. So please join the live session in Zoom and come ready to ask all your questions.

Best regards,

Isabel Valera
