DESCRIPTION:This seminar will introduce the essentials of machine learnin
 g and its applications to intelligent system development for machine lea
 rning dummies. It covers basic concepts and principles of machine learni
 ng including multiple aspects such as what machine learning is\, what ma
 chine learning can do\, what different learning paradigms are and how a 
 machine learning works for a real-world problem. Intuitive examples are 
 given to help audience understand how to apply proper machine learning t
 echniques in developing intelligent systems. Finally\,  I briefly introd
 uce my Machine Learning and Perception (MLP) Lab at the University of Ma
 nchester and review the  research conducted in the MLP Lab via several e
 xemplar projects.\n\nThis seminar is presented by Dr Ke Chen\, Senior Le
 cturer at the University of Manchester.  Dr. Ke Chen is an academic staf
 f member of School of Computer Science at The University of Manchester. 
 He does research and teaching in Artificial Intelligence and Computer Sc
 ience. His main research interests include machine learning\, pattern re
 cognition\, machine perception\, computational cognitive systems and the
 ir applications in intelligent system development. He directs the Lab of
  Machine Learning and Perception affiliated with the Machine Learning an
 d Optimization Research Group .\n\nHe has been with The University of Ma
 nchester since 2003. He was with Peking University\, The University of B
 irmingham\, The Ohio State University\, Kyushu Institute of Technology a
 nd Tsinghua University after receiving a PhD in computer science in 1990
 . He was a visiting senior researcher at Microsoft Research Asia and a v
 isiting professor at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University.\n\nBooking is
