Goals:
This course will introduce state-of-art techniques of statistical learning with kernel methods. Systematic introduction will be provided from classical to modern methods. Methodology explanations will be given with computation codes in R and other applications packages. Hands-on experience is emphasized using illustrations and reproducible examples. Undergraduate knowledge of probability and statistics will be helpful for the understanding of this course. Related materials will be posted at the course web page.
