  <li>Feel free to email me, when you find my typos or have comments. The covered materials are by no means an exhaustive list of machine learning, but are contents that we have taught or plan to teach in my machine learning introductory course.

    Please pay attention to special dates: <font color="#990000"><b>(0308,0310)</b></font> no class, spring recess; <font color="#990000"><b>(0202)</b></font> Add Last day; <font color="#990000"><b>(0203)</b></font> Drop Last day;   <font color="#990000"><b>(0503)</b></font> Last lesson day of Spring 2022 .  
  </li>

  <li><p style="color:blue;">Disclaimer: it is quite hard to make important topics of machine learning fit on a one-semester schedule.  We aim to make the course reasonably digestible in an introductory manner. We try to focus on a modularity view by introducing important variables to digest machine learning into chunks regarding data/ representation / loss-functions / optimizations / model characteristics. That said, our goals here are to highlight the most foundational design choices in machine learning about algorithm designs,  workflows, what to learn and how to learn it, and to expose the trade-offs in those choices. We think this teaching style provides students with context concerning those choices and helps them build a much deeper understanding. </p>
