Under construction. This area is a framework being built: most courses have no teaching material yet, and things may change or break. Private self-study. Not an official programme and not recognised by any ministry or school. No qualification, mark or document is issued, and “years 1 to 3” and “advanced” are names of study paths only.

Concept-level units

Units follow the syllabus order, as a recommended sequence rather than a gate.

  1. Empirical and population risk
  2. Generalization
  3. Regularization
  4. Kernel methods
  5. Concentration
  6. Optimization-statistics interaction

Assessable outcome

Analyze a learning method beyond its implementation and state the assumptions of a bound.

Assessment design

  • deeper problem sets
  • reconstruction of an unfamiliar argument
  • advanced source reading
  • cumulative examination or substantial project

cumulative; uses spaced retrieval

Resources

Every title here is candidate, unverified unless marked verified. Titles were suggested while planning. Nobody has checked that they exist, what they cost or how they are licensed.

  • Shalev-Shwartz and Ben-David
  • ISL as an integration checkpoint
