Lesson 1: Supervised machine learning

  • Regression
  • Classification
  • Parametric
  • Instance-based
  • Overview: LinReg, KNN, Decision Trees

Lesson 2: How ML fits into the computing at a hedge fund

  • Long/short

Lesson 3: Time series prediction as an ML problem

[note: need to create fake stock data that has embedded patterns]

Lesson 4: Learner APIs

Lesson 5: Linear regression

Lesson 6: KNN

Lesson 7: Assessing a learning algorithm

  • Now that we have two, (linreg & KNN), let's compare them
  • RMS error
  • Scatterplot predict vs actual
  • Corrcoef

Lesson 8: Overfitting

Lesson 9: Decision trees

Lesson 10: Ensemble learners & bagging

Lesson 11: Random trees & forests
