Introduction to Machine Learning

4-6 weeks

Learn core ML concepts including supervised learning (regression, classification), unsupervised learning (clustering, dimensionality reduction), model evaluation, and bias-variance tradeoff using scikit-learn.

Deep Learning Fundamentals

4-6 weeks

Study neural network architectures, backpropagation, activation functions, and optimization techniques. Build and train networks using frameworks like TensorFlow or PyTorch.

Computer Vision

3-4 weeks

Explore convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for image classification, object detection, and segmentation. Work on practical projects with real-world image datasets.

Natural Language Processing

4-6 weeks

Learn text preprocessing, word embeddings, sequence models (RNNs, LSTMs), and the transformer architecture. Understand how large language models work and practice fine-tuning pre-trained models.

Reinforcement Learning

3-4 weeks

Study Markov decision processes, Q-learning, policy gradients, and deep reinforcement learning. Implement agents that learn to play games or navigate environments.

Generative AI and Advanced Topics

4-6 weeks

Explore generative models including GANs, variational autoencoders, and diffusion models. Study advanced topics like transfer learning, multi-modal AI, and prompt engineering.

AI Ethics, Deployment, and Real-World Projects

4-6 weeks

Study AI ethics, fairness, interpretability, and responsible AI practices. Learn model deployment with APIs and cloud platforms. Build end-to-end portfolio projects demonstrating practical skills.
