(Bayesian) Foundations of data science
(Bayesian) Foundations of data science
A little advertisement for a new free online course about the foundations of data science, machine learning, and – just a little – artificial intelligence. It's been designed for students in computer science and data science, who could be uncomfortable with a head-on probability-theory or statistics approach, and who might have a lighter background in maths. The main point of view of the course is how to build an artificial-intelligence agent who must draw inferences and make decisions. As a course, it's still a sort of experiment.

In more technical terms, the course is actually about so-called "Bayesian nonparametric density inference" and Bayesian decision theory.
