The group is held by Prof. Ng which has a ML course on coursera https://www.coursera.org/learn/machine-learning - lecture notes of the in class course are here http://cs229.stanford.edu/materials.html (but without the lecture it may be.. without the lecture:))

Ng is one of those great profs that combine the rare gifts of being able to teach as well as be a leader in the field at the same time. I've had profs that are far less accomplished and far more arrogant. There's probably a correlation between those features, now that I think about it.

Definitely worth it. I had to drop out around week 5 due to a lack of time, but just started a new job that'll take me back to 40-hour weeks (down from 80-100), so I'll give it another shot next time they run the course.

The latest session started today, from 5 Oct to 27 Dec.
