This two-day course will give a detailed overview of statistical models
for regression and classification. Known as machine-learning in
computer science and artificial intelligence, and pattern recognition
in engineering, this is a hot field with powerful applications in
finance, science and industry.

This is a very popular course, normally offered only twice a year in the U.S.

At our  recent course in Chicago,  participants were asked
to rate the course on a scale from 1 (poor) to 5 (outstanding).

The median score was 5!
[The mean was 4.6, with a sample size of 55]
