This proposal has been made by Ayush Kumar Dwivedi, research scholar at Signal Processing and Communication
Research Centre (SPCRC), IIIT Hyderabad to deliver an online learning module to students of HITAM.
OVERVIEW
This learning module will cover fundamentals statistical methods of Machine Learning with applications in modern day
computer science and wireless communication and IoT. The course will focus on mathematical aspects of ML and will
mathematically rigorous. The course structure is designed in such a way that, all the prerequisites are revised at the
beginning of the course. All the concepts will be covered from basic aspects till the present modern complex form. The
module includes, online lectures, live demonstrations, regular assignments and a course project. Please read the
subsequent sections for more details.
The Objective
• Need #1: bring awareness about statistical methods in machine learning
• Need #2: bring awareness about applications of machine learning in computer science and wireless
communication and IoT.
• Need #3: discussion on future trends and research areas of artificial intelligence.
The Opportunity
• Opportunity #1: Top performing student will get an internship opportunity at SPCRC, IIITH, to do
cutting edge research on next generation wiles communication.
• Opportunity #2: Students will cover most of the syllabus of any popular introductory course on AI/ML.
PROPOSAL
The module will include 90 minutes online discussion session every alternate day. The other required details are as
follows:
Delivery
15 online lectures with presentations and coding demonstrations. Required resources will be shared on Moodle.
Evaluation
• Lecture wise coding assignments (implementation of taught algorithms from scratch)
• Weekly online quiz
1
• Project presentation (implementation of a seminal IEEE paper)
• Turn wise scribing duties to create resources for future reference
Resources/Support Required
• One teaching assistant (preferable someone with understanding of the subject)
• All the engagement regarding assignment submission and resource sharing will be done via Moodle. A
Moodle course with all the students, instructor and TA enrolled will be required.
