Beschreibung

Lecture starts on April 14th, 2021

This course is designed to give students an in-depth introduction to deep learning and review the state of the art in important applications, such as computer vision and language modeling. The lectures and exercises are designed around fundamentals and use cases and will use real-world 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, convolutional neural networks and sequence models.  During the third part of the course, we will discuss unsupervised learning, generative models and self-supervision.

Due to significant overlap in course material, this course cannot be combined with the Machine Learning for Precision Medicine from Summer Semester 2019 and neither with the Introduction to Deep Learning Course from Summer Semester 2020.

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.

Voraussetzungen

Maths prerequisites: Linear Algebra (vectors, matrices), Calculus (derivatives), Probabilities (we will refresh them in the first tutorial)

Programming prerequisites: Beginner level in python, syntax (functions, loops, etc.) and its libraries numpy and pandas.
