Learning Outcomes
After the course the student will be familiar with the concepts of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine learning (ML), and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). The student will also understand the workflow from problem to solution using data, selecting algorithms and creating predictive models with tools such as Tensorflow, Theano, and Scikit-learn. An introduction to Python programming language is included.
Student's Workload
A total of 81h split up evenly on weekly activities.
Prerequisites / Recommended Optional Courses
For Python some basic programming skill or at least a rudimentary understanding is helpful but not mandatory. For AI an understanding of Python and statistical methods is helpful but not mandatory.
