Aims 

The objective of the course is to initiate young life-science scientists to the bases of machine learning, and how to use it in Python with the scikit-learn package.

Organisation

The course will include twelve classes (two per week, except for the 1st and 8th of May), each two-hours long, over a period of eight weeks, in April-May 2025.
A large part of each class will be devoted to practical coding exercises.
A few hours of homework per week.

Assessment
• The participants will be regularly asked to explain their code during the classes.
• Coding exercises and quizzes will be proposed over the duration of the course.
• The course will be assessed through a final project to complete after the end of the course

Ackowledgement

The course will be based on the INRIA open online course (https://www.fun-mooc.fr/en/courses/machine-learning-python-scikit-learn/), adapted towards biology.
