You’ll explore how modern AI systems apply deep learning across different applications\, as well as the trade‑offs and challenges that come with these methods. The focus is on building conceptual understanding rather than teaching specific frameworks or guiding you through model development. \nRegistration and fee are required to receive Zoom link.

Whether they are creating simple visualizations or complex machine learning systems\, there is significant coding that goes into every analysis. Software developers have created numerous tools and procedures to make the software development process easier\,  more efficient\, and more collaborative\, as well as to promote quality control. This course covers a number of these tools\, with a particular focus on applications to data analytics in R. Specifically\, we will cover version control\, package development\, and automated testing. \nRegistration and fee are required to receive Zoom link.
