Classical ML
- ML workflow & habits: problem framing, train/validation/test split, baselines, cross‑validation, metric tables
- Data prep: missing values, duplicates, categorical encoding, scaling, leakage guard, simple feature engineering (dates, counts), class imbalance basics
- Regression: Linear Regression + regularization; metrics MAE/RMSE/R²; quick error analysis
- Classification: Logistic Regression; Trees & Random Forests; metrics accuracy, precision/recall, F1, ROC‑AUC; threshold tuning
- Model comparison & selection: choose by metric + simplicity

LoanLens — Automated Credit Risk Assessment
RentRight — Predicting Fair Apartment Prices
GenAI & Agents
- LLM fundamentals: tokens, context windows, temperature/top‑p, cost/latency basics
- Prompting patterns: role, few‑shot, CoT; tiny prompt‑eval set
- Agents 101 (basics): single agent, 1–2 tools, JSON schemas, retries/backoff, hard stop; mini‑build (CSV Analyst or FAQ Helpdesk)
- Function/Tool calling: structured outputs (JSON/validation), idempotent tool design
- Shipping Sprint (FastAPI): wrap the agent as an API ( /chat ) with Pydantic schemas, env/secrets, logging + request IDs; deploy to Render or HF Spaces; run a 10‑prompt live eval
- RAG 101: embeddings, chunking, retrievers, vector stores; RAG eval (answer correctness & context recall), semantic search
- Agents + RAG: reuse the Agents 101 loop with a retriever tool; same eval harness
- Orchestration (intro): LangGraph basics—nodes, transitions, retries; ship a small agent flow
