1
00:00:05,426 --> 00:00:06,950
Welcome to Classification.

2
00:00:06,950 --> 00:00:10,590
This is the third class in our
machine learning specialization.

3
00:00:10,590 --> 00:00:14,720
I'm Carlos Guestrin and together we're
going to go through the basics to

4
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:19,150
the fundamentals to actually
building real world classifiers.

5
00:00:19,150 --> 00:00:23,490
It's going to be fun, exciting,
bit of work, maybe tons of work, but

6
00:00:23,490 --> 00:00:26,140
you'll come out the other side
being really an expert, and

7
00:00:26,140 --> 00:00:30,610
a lot of the core techniques that you need
to build classifiers in the real world.

8
00:00:32,410 --> 00:00:36,370
This course is the third course over six
course Specialization Machine Learning.

9
00:00:36,370 --> 00:00:40,790
In the first one we outlined
the basics of machine learning

10
00:00:40,790 --> 00:00:45,410
using the techniques as
input output black boxes.

11
00:00:45,410 --> 00:00:49,985
From the second course onward, we're
actually understanding the depths of each

12
00:00:49,985 --> 00:00:53,660
algorithm and
implementing them from scratch ourselves.

13
00:00:53,660 --> 00:00:58,130
The first course on regression
was really fun and exciting and

14
00:00:58,130 --> 00:00:59,620
I'm really glad of that.

15
00:00:59,620 --> 00:01:03,930
I'm leading this course on classification
which will be followed by a course on

16
00:01:03,930 --> 00:01:07,450
clustering, one on recommender systems,
and

17
00:01:07,450 --> 00:01:11,720
finally our capstone project where
your going to use deep learning and

18
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:16,480
text analytics to build a whole new
kind of product recommender and

19
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,380
apply it as a real time service.
