MACHINE LEARNING IN ACTION FOR INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERS

3 credits.

Principles, algorithms, and industrial engineering applications of machine learning. Predictive analytics, with a focus on combining data and models to improve decision-making. Methods include: statistics, linear regression, logistic regression, regularization, over-fitting, clustering, classification and regression trees, boosting, bagging, deep learning, and neural networks. Applications areas include: healthcare, transportation, and the public sector.
