How good is IIT Delhi for machine learning?

Despite offering a plethora of courses for Machine Learning, IIT Delhi fails to keep pace with the new developments in the field of ML. The obsolete curriculum does not justify the fast-paced developments in the field of Machine Learning. So if you are just a curious guy trying to learn ML to build something or for a job, then it’s well and good. But for those who want to pursue deep research in the field, the program will be an utter disappointment. The curriculum does not cover industry-relevant and diverse topics like Reinforcement learning.

IIT Delhi offers Advanced Machine Learning taught by Prof. Prathosh. The program usually covers Deep Learning. Honestly speaking, the Machine learning courses offered by the Department of Electrical Engineering are more rigorous theoretically and are better than those offered under Mechanical Engineering.
