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 the 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!
