SYNOPSIS

Python programming has been widely used for machine learning (ML) developments. Python programming provides a vast set of third-party packages for ML which have been developed by engineers and scientists over the years. The reasons that Python became widely used and popular programming in ML are due to its clean and readable syntax with a rich variety of libraries and frameworks which provide pre-built functions and tools, such as TensorFlow, Scikit-Learn and Keras.

In addition, Python programming is a cross-platform programming language, which can be developed for various operating systems (OS) such as Windows or Ubuntu OS without modifications from which it is the desired feature for deploying ML applications across different operating platforms for different applications. The aim of the digital class is to provide introductory level course for engineers who have little or no knowledge on Python programming and they would like to get themselves familiarize with the powerful tools in ML applications. The digital class consists of four sessions with topics given the the following class content section, which would be conducted online on the pre-scheduled dates.
