Artificial Intelligence Capstone - 15 weeks

Large Language Models

This course equips you with the skills to deploy and optimize cutting-edge machine learning systems in real-world scenarios. You will explore the open-source MLOps stack, learning to manage the entire ML lifecycle, including deployment, monitoring, and version control. The course emphasizes data-centric approaches for enhancing the performance of large language models (LLMs) through high-quality data curation and preprocessing. You will also master techniques for fine-tuning pre-trained models and leveraging prompt engineering to optimize output for specific tasks. By the end of the course, you will be adept at integrating and maintaining advanced AI solutions in dynamic environments.

What you’ll do:

• Utilize machine learning models and the open-source MLOps Stack
• Integrate data-centric LLMs with data science methodologies to derive insights
• Leverage model fine-tuning and prompt engineering to optimize business solution oriented outputs

Prerequisites:

• Course: Introduction to Machine Learning
• Course: Machine Learning with Scikit-Learn
• Course: Natural Language Processing, Time Series & Neural Networks

AI Capstone

In this intensive course you will be tasked with developing 2 different projects. In these projects you will be expected to frame your projects around solving a business problem. You will be expected to bring all your skills from Foundations together to build 2 different methods: a classification supervised model, and a classified unsupervised large language model.

What you’ll do:

• Integrate data science process using at least one method of non-regression supervised learning
• Integrate data science process using at least one method of non-regression unsupervised learning
• Utilize mathematics, statistics, & probability for data science methodologies to derive business insights
