Probabilistic graphical models (PGMs) are a rich framework for encoding probability distributions over complex domains: joint (multivariate) distributions over large numbers of random variables that interact with each other. These representations sit at the intersection of statistics and computer science, relying on concepts from probability theory, graph algorithms, machine learning, and more. They are the basis for the state-of-the-art methods in a wide variety of applications, such as medical diagnosis, image understanding, speech recognition, natural language processing, and many, many more. They are also a foundational tool in formulating many machine learning problems.

How the Специализация Works
Пройти курсы
Специализация Coursera — это серия курсов, помогающих в совершенстве овладеть определенным навыком. Можно сразу записаться на специализацию или просмотреть курсы, из которых она состоит и выбрать тот, с которого вы хотите начать. Подписываясь на курс, который входит в специализацию, вы автоматически подписываетесь на всю специализацию. Можно завершить всего один курс, а потом сделать паузу в обучении или в любой момент отменить подписку. Отслеживайте свои курсы и прогресс на панели управления учащегося.
Практический проект
В каждой специализации есть практический проект, который нужно успешно выполнить, чтобы завершить специализацию и получить сертификат. Если для практического проекта в специализации предусмотрен отдельный курс, прежде чем начать его, необходимо завершить все остальные курсы.
Получите сертификат
Когда вы пройдете все курсы и завершите практический проект, вы получите сертификат, которым можно поделиться с потенциальными работодателями и коллегами.
Специализация включает несколько курсов: 3

Probabilistic Graphical Models 1: Representation
4.7
Оценки: 890
Probabilistic graphical models (PGMs) are a rich framework for encoding probability distributions over complex domains: joint (multivariate) distributions over large numbers of random variables that interact with each other. These representations sit at the intersection of statistics and computer science, relying on concepts from probability theory, graph algorithms, machine learning, and more. They are the basis for the state-of-the-art methods in a wide variety of applications, such as medical diagnosis, image understanding, speech recognition, natural language processing, and many, many more. They are also a foundational tool in formulating many machine learning problems.
This course is the first in a sequence of three. It describes the two basic PGM representations: Bayesian Networks, which rely on a directed graph; and Markov networks, which use an undirected graph. The course discusses both the theoretical properties of these representations as well as their use in practice. The (highly recommended) honors track contains several hands-on assignments on how to represent some real-world problems. The course also presents some important extensions beyond the basic PGM representation, which allow more complex models to be encoded compactly.

They are also a foundational tool in formulating many machine learning problems.
This course is the second in a sequence of three. Following the first course, which focused on representation, this course addresses the question of probabilistic inference: how a PGM can be used to answer questions. Even though a PGM generally describes a very high dimensional distribution, its structure is designed so as to allow questions to be answered efficiently. The course presents both exact and approximate algorithms for different types of inference tasks, and discusses where each could best be applied. The (highly recommended) honors track contains two hands-on programming assignments, in which key routines of the most commonly used exact and approximate algorithms are implemented and applied to a real-world problem.

The course discusses the key problems of parameter estimation in both directed and undirected models, as well as the structure learning task for directed models. The (highly recommended) honors track contains two hands-on programming assignments, in which key routines of two commonly used learning algorithms are implemented and applied to a real-world problem.

Часто задаваемые вопросы
Какие правила возврата средств?
Можно ли зарегистрироваться только на один курс?
Да! Чтобы начать, нажмите карточку интересующего вас курса и зарегистрируйтесь. Зарегистрировавшись, вы можете пройти курс и получить сертификат, ссылкой на который можно делиться с другими людьми. Просто ознакомиться с содержанием курса можно бесплатно. При подписке на курс, входящий в специализацию, вы автоматически подписываетесь на всю специализацию. Ход учебы можно отслеживать в панели управления учащегося.
Можно ли получить финансовую помощь?
Могу ли я пройти курс бесплатно?
Действительно ли это полностью дистанционный курс? Нужно ли мне посещать какие-либо занятия лично?
Это полностью дистанционный курс, потому вам не нужно ничего посещать. Все лекции, материалы для самостоятельного изучения и задания доступны всегда и везде по Интернету и с мобильных устройств.
Получу ли я зачеты в университете за прохождение специализации?
Эта специализация не приравнивается к зачету в университетах, однако некоторые вузы принимают сертификаты на свое усмотрение. Дополнительную информацию уточняйте в своем деканате.
Сколько времени занимает получение специализации?
The Specialization has three five-week courses, for a total of fifteen weeks.
What background knowledge is necessary?
This class does require some abstract thinking and mathematical skills. However, it is designed to require fairly little background, and a motivated student can pick up the background material as the concepts are introduced. We hope that, using our new learning platform, it should be possible for everyone to understand all of the core material.
Though, you should be able to program in at least one programming language and have a computer (Windows, Mac or Linux) with internet access (programming assignments will be conducted in Matlab or Octave). It also helps to have some previous exposure to basic concepts in discrete probability theory (independence, conditional independence, and Bayes' rule).
Do I need to take the courses in a specific order?
For best results, the courses should be taken in order.
What will I be able to do upon completing the Specialization?
You will be able to take a complex task and understand how it can be encoded as a probabilistic graphical model. You will now know how to implement the core probabilistic inference techniques, how to select the right inference method for the task, and how to use inference to reason. You will also know how to take a data set and use it to learn a model, whether from scratch, or to refine or complete a partially specified model.
