# 0. Introduction to Machine Learning II ###### tags: `Machine Learning II` :::warning 🤯 Feel stuck with all these technical terms? Take a look at our course on [Machine Learning I](Machine-Learning-I). ::: This course will be specially focused in **Model developing**. Modern advanced Machine Learning has three main methods: * Kernel methods * Probabilistic Machine Learning (Data models) * Deep learning (with [Neural Networks](Introduction-to-neural-networks)) This course will specifically cover both **Kernel methods** and **Probabilistc** learning methods. :::info **Neural Networks** and **Deep Learning** will be covered by another dedicated course. ::: ## Terminology ### Novelty detection It is an [unsupervised learning](Unsupervised-learning) task that studies if a data point belongs to a certain distribution or not. ### Stump classifier A **stump classifier** is a classifier that uses thresholds to separate instances between the different classes. [Decision Trees](Decision-trees) (DTs) are a recursive application of these kind of classifiers.
