The Continuum Jumpstart Course Computational Machine Learning (ML) for Scientists and Engineers is designed to equip you with the knowledge you need to

understand, train, design and machine learning algorithms, particularly deep neural networks, and even deploy them on the cloud.

You'll learn by programming machine learning algorithms from scratch in a hands-on manner using a one-of-a-kind cloud-based interactive computational

textbook that will guide you, and check your progress, step-by-step. Using real-world datasets and datasets of your choosing, you will understand, and

we will discuss, via computational discovery and critical reasoning, the strengths and limitations of the algorithms and how they can or cannot be

overcome. You will understand how machine learning algorithms do what they claim to do so you can reproduce these while being able to reason about and

spot wild, unsupported claims of their efficacy.

By the end of the course, you will be ready to harness the power of machine learning in your daily job and prototype, we hope, innovative new ML

applications for your company with datasets you alone have access to.

It's ideal for folks who want to go deeper than a regular MOOC and want to learn by coding.
