Algorithms for Big Data

Harvard University via YouTube

Overview

Imagine data so large that there is not enough memory to store the data on your computer.

The series of 25 lectures from Harvard University would cover topics such as Sketching/Streaming, Dimensional Reduction when data has higher dimensions, speed up clustering algorithms, large scale machine learning, deal with regression problems, compress sensing, external memory problem (measure disk I/Os instead of the number of instructions) and other such models and algorithms for big data.

It would also cover topics such as Logistics, course topics, basic tail bounds (Markov, Chebyshev, Chernoff, Bernstein), Morris' algorithm.

    It was a good course i learned a lot from this course i learned algorithms in big data and understand them it helps me lot clear expectations
  • Ajith Kumar Sahoo
    Very much interesting tropics and very easy to learn thanks a lot Harvard.. And central class i have been so much happy to learn ur course from this site.. And ur certificate are more valuable for me in pur college campus selection.. Hope u will send me the certificate as soon as possible
  • Very educational very informative straight to the point very understanding great concept I think you for taking the time to make these videos I enjoyed listening to your lectures
