Hi, This is an amazing video. This resource will be very helpful for children. But the video is in English. Majority of the children in India study in vernacular languages. We, Pratham Education Foundation an NGO working in the field of education is trying to find a solution to this difficulty. We are trying to develop as well as outsource resources and translate it into all Indian languages. I have sent an email to richannel@ri.ac.uk regarding the same. I request your attention to this.

I see Kevin Spacy has moved on.
this lecture is basically a copy of the one from Andrew Syzdlo. he has a few different ones and so far this is like watching a re-run with a younger more boring teacher. even the same jokes…Andrew is definitely funnier !!!

The boy's determination and enthusiasm are outstanding.
amazing professor chris! Your book PRML was my introduction to machine learning 🙂
this teacher is very boring.
If this were Mr. Bean, I would be impressed, but sadly, there is a severe lack of Mr. Bean. I’m going to have to rate this a 4/10
Willy the chemist is no more. What he thought was H2O was H2SO4!
