Machine Learning Course

Free hands-on and interactive course in Python, which starting from Data Science offers examples (in Google Colab) and explanation (in Twitter threads) on concepts and techniques of Machine Learning, Deep Learning and NLP.

Although it is not intended to have the formal rigor of a book, we tried to be as faithful as possible to the original algorithms and methods, only adding variants, when these were necessary for didactic purposes.

Quick Start

The best way to get the most out of this course is to carefully read each selected problem, try to think of a possible solution (language independent) and then look at the proposed Python code and try to reproduce it in your favorite IDE. If you already have knowledge of the Python language, then you can go directly to programming your solution and then compare it with the one proposed in the course.
