Mathematical Research at the University of Cambridge

 

There is a large interest from students in courses on Machine Learning, but the pedagogy of this material is much less established than traditional statistical courses. This talk will discuss where machine learning might be placed in comparison to traditional statistics, and whether it should be taught in the same way as traditional statistics or seen as an entirely separate topic.
