Great amount of traffic data are generated everyday from private cars, subway, taxi and buses, etc. Traffic data analysis is of great help to understand the patterns of people mobility, transport planning, urban management and policymaking. And it is also an interesting way to learn some basic knowledge about big data and machine learning.

Alphago is one of the best players in board games. One of the important reasons for its great success is deep learning. Deep learning is a class of machine learning algorithms that use a cascade of many layers of nonlinear processing units for feature extraction and transformation. It is now broadly studied and used in following areas: Automatic speech recognition, Image recognition, Natural language processing, Customer relationship management and so on. Alphago (its upgraded version called Master) is one of the most famous and successful applications of deep learning. It is a good way to gain knowledge about this interesting area.
