      The goal Advanced Machine Learning Algorithms is a course introducing the theoretical foundations of modern machine learning, as well as advanced methods and frameworks used in modern machine learning.
      The outcome The learning outcomes of the course are to enable students to understand statistical and computational considerations in machine learning algorithms, to develop the skill of devising computationally efficient and yet statistically rigorous algorithms for solving machine learning problems and to develop the skill of quantifying the statistical performance of any new machine learning method.
