Beschreibung

This course is designed to give students an in-depth introduction to machine learning. The lectures and exercises are designed around biomedical use cases and will use real-world biomedical data to gain practical experience with machine learning models and algorithms. The course will start with an introduction to the basic concepts of machine learning and empirical data analysis, such as model fitting, selection and validation. During the second part of the course, we will discuss supervised machine learning, starting with linear models, to non-linear models, including deep neural networks and convolutional neural networks for medical imaging.  During the third part of the course, we will discuss unsupervised learning, starting with clustering, to dimensionality reduction and latent variable models. While we will discuss machine learning in a biomedical context, the learned principles and algorithms are applicable to other fields as well.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand concepts, methods and algorithms in machine learning
• Ability to empirically analyze real-world data
• Ability to assess the quality and validity of a machine learning model for a given analysis
• Ability to select, develop, implement and apply appropriate machine learning models and algorithms for a given use case.
• Gain an introduction to biomedical use cases of machine learning, including clinical prediction problems, medical image analysis, and modeling of multi-omics data.
