Micro-Lectures – MachineLearnAthon

Our collection of 55 Micro Lectures provides concise, focused introductions to key topics in machine learning. Each lecture is available as a PDF and a corresponding YouTube video, making it easy to learn at your own pace and revisit specific concepts whenever needed.
The lectures are organized into four thematic areas, each presented in its own table:

Basic Concepts: Fundamental principles of machine learning.
Data Preprocessing: Techniques for preparing and cleaning data before model training.
Machine Learning Frameworks: Overviews of popular frameworks for ML development.
Machine Learning Algorithms: Detailed explanations of various algorithms and their applications.

To help you quickly find what you’re looking for, we also provide a comprehensive Glossary that lists which topics are covered in which Micro Lecture — an ideal resource for students searching for specific content or revisiting particular subjects.
All videos are also available on our official YouTube channel, MachineLearnAthon. There, you’ll find four curated playlists — Getting started with Computer Vision, Getting started with Time-Series Forecasting, Getting started with Classification, and Getting started with Regression. These playlists are particularly well suited for beginners, as they guide viewers through the topics in a logical sequence designed to build understanding step by step.
