Advanced machine learning is a field of computer science that looks at how to improve computing power by allowing programs to learn as they run, without additional programming. It is a form of artificial intelligence. Advanced machine learning calls for sophisticated programming that includes statistical analysis and generative adversarial networks to find the best path to learning.‎
Typical careers that use advanced machine learning are in data engineering, data science, and computer programming. These are fields where work with big data sets is expected to increase. Advanced machine learning is also widely used in algorithmic trading and finance, so people who want to work in financial markets may want to learn it. Advanced machine learning is a field that is expected to grow as more computing environments include some aspects of machine learning. Management careers that involve data analysis, strategic planning, and prediction are easier when the programs can learn about the data involved.‎
Online courses can help you learn advanced machine learning through courses, Specializations, and Professional Certificates offered by universities and by software companies. Courses in Apache Spark, Keras, TensorFlow, MongoDb, and PySpark, among other packages, can help you learn how machine learning works in specific programming environments. Other classes cover the math and statistics needed to understand the underlying logic. Despite the name, not all courses are at an advanced level, although beginner courses in advanced machine learning call for background knowledge. Specializations and Guided Projects help you demonstrate your knowledge and test what you know.‎
You'll want to make sure you have a strong foundation of machine learning fundamentals before moving onto advanced concepts and classes. It's helpful to know the fundamentals of scalable data science and mathematics, including linear algebra and multivariate calculus. Programming, especially in Python, is also recommended, as is basic knowledge of SQL. ‎
