Machine learning models depend thoroughly on the dataset quality they are trained on. The model’s performance deteriorates significantly due to noisy datasets. One primary source of noise is mislabeling. Labeling is a costly, time-consuming, and error-prone stage in the machine learning pipeline. Data, if not correctly labeled, can introduce bias and inaccuracies into machine learning models.

This course offers hands-on experience in analyzing the effects of mislabeled datasets on machine learning models, especially convolutional neural networks. It emphasizes the modern data-centric perspective in machine learning. Eventually, it teaches how to measure and recover from noisy datasets.

After completing this course, you will be skilled at handling imbalanced datasets and be able to interpret results fairly to avoid bias toward minority classes. Having such skills is vital in machine learning and important for both industry and academia.
