Course Catalog Description

This series covers current topics of research interest in controls. The course content may vary semester to semester. Check with the department for current term topics.

"Please note, this is a course in data science and machine learning, not controls." This course provides a foundation in data science with emphasis on the application of statistics and machine learning to engineering problems. The course combines theoretical topics in probability and statistical inference with practical methods for solving problems in code. Each topic is demonstrated with examples from engineering. These include hypothesis testing, principal component analysis, clustering, linear regression, time series analysis, classification, and deep learning. Math 53 and 54 are recommended before Engin 178, Math 53 and 54 are allowed concurrently.
