- Advanced Topics in Machine Learning: COMPGI13
This course comprises 15 hours on kernel methods, and 15 hours on reinforcement learning. The kernel part covers: construction of RKHS, in terms of feature spaces and smoothing properties; simple linear algorithms in RKHS (PCA, ridge regression); kernel methods for hypothesis testing (two-sample, independence); support vector machines for classification, including both the C-SVM and nu-SVM; and further applications of kernels (feature selection, clustering, ICA). There is an additional component (not assessed) on theory of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces.
