Raspberry Pi: Introduction to Machine Learning and AI

From self-driving cars to determining someone's age, artificial intelligence (AI) systems trained with machine learning (ML) are being used more and more. But what is AI, and what does machine learning actually involve?

In this four-week course from the Raspberry Pi Foundation, you'll learn about different types of machine learning, and use online tools to train your own AI models. You'll find out about the types of problems that machine learning can help to solve, discuss how AI is changing the world, and think about the ethics of collecting data to train a machine learning model.

What you'll learn

Over the following four weeks, you will:

  • Demonstrate several working machine learning models

  • Explain the different types of machine learning, and the problems that they are suitable for

  • Compare supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning

  • Discuss the ethical issues surrounding machine learning and AI

This course will cover:

  • The history of AI

  • What are AI and machine learning?

  • Using AI for classification

  • What problems can AI solve?

  • Collecting and preparing data for machine learning

  • Potential problems with AI

  • The machine learning process

  • Supervised learning: Decision trees and nearest neighbour

  • Unsupervised learning

  • Reinforcement learning

  • How neural networks work

  • Writing a good ML resource

Date:23rd Jan - 2nd Aug

Free, online, self paced, 4 weeks (2 - 4 hours per week)
