Title: Machine Learning Applications to Ocean Engineering Problems

Abstract:
The design and application of inductive algorithms is the hallmark of
Machine Learning research. These algorithms attempt to "learn" the
underlying cause of supplied example data. Applications for such
algorithms range from preventing credit card fraud to committing
credit card fraud, as well as many applications in the physical
sciences such as filtering techniques and regression analysis. This
talk will highlight some of the key concepts and modern tools of
Machine Learning as well as present applications to selected Ocean
Engineering systems such as the Mexican Blind Cave Fish.
