Quote that describes my ultimate goal

"The key question to keep asking is, Are you spending your time on the right things? Because time is all you have, and in the end you may find out that you may have less than what you thought"

Machine Learning

The roller-coaster ride of the Machine Learning is going to end today. The last series of lectures includes Unsupervised Learning. It has been a beatific journey of completing a 10 week course in just a mere 15 odd days. I have learned a lot from this course not only in the terms of the basic machine learning algorithms, but ways to approach a new set of problem with the given repertoire and extrapolating it to solve it. I am highly thankful to Coursera and most of all Prof Pedro Domingos for such pristine concepts. I really appreciate the style of teaching of the professor, as he concentrates more on reasoning than just merely giving the straight forward algorithms. I totally compare his way of teaching to that of Socrates, "Learning By Questioning".
