· with smartphones to recognise movement, objects in images and sound. Bring your own Apple or Android-based smartphone, the only requirement is that it has a camera and internet connection.
· with physical devices, like e.g. smartwatches to recognise movement, temperature, heart rate, air pressure, or a combination of them. VAMK has 10 smartwatches you can use during the course, either by yourself or working in pairs.
· with a computer to recognise objects or abnormities in images, e.g. Covid-19 or Pneumonia in X-ray images. Most activities will be done through a browser, one requires a Windows 10 or Mac computer (M1-processor not yet supported). It is recommended to work in pairs.
In addition to machine learning, you will also learn about other types of AI (expert systems, intelligent automation, genetic algorithms etc.) and how they can be used.
Most of the activities will be literally hands-on lab exercises, the amount of PowerPoint-presentations is kept to a minimum.
