M4558: Oh wait! You can do that? in Splash Fall 2015 (Nov. 07 - 08, 2015)
"Neural Network" "Machine Learning" "Deep learning" "Big Data" and etc. Living near the bay area, we are constantly greeted by these buzz words of cutting-edge computer technologies. And in one way or another, all of us have interacted with these 'smart' machines, and have benefited from a powerful machine 'brain'. Curious minds of us may have asked ourselves about these technological advancements: what is Machine Learning? Why and how does it work? How can I use it? This introductory course to Machine Learning aims to show you the magic of data analysis, and to provide a broad overview of the landscape and magnificence of Machine Learning. A formal framework will be introduced in the class, with a few case studies to reinforce our learning process. :)


M4650: How internet works? in Splash Fall 2015 (Nov. 07 - 08, 2015)
For the vast majority of users, internet is a mystery. We typed in the webpage address, and boo-yah, we have the webpage. And even more confusing, (roughly speaking), we can get any page we want. BUT HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE? Why the internet is so powerful? And where are the supernatural goblins behind the system? In this session, we will have a brief overview of networking, from a software perspective. In particular, we will introduce the idea of distributed system, and the mechanism through which system is connected. We have a lot to go through, but I guarantee it is going to be a mind-blowing experience peeking into the black box of internet.
