Niveau

Master's program

Learning outcomes of the courses/module

The participants:
• can name the tools (e.g. libraries, cloud platforms or software tools) that can be used to support machine learning
• can compare the tools they have learned about in terms of their suitability for specific problems
• can design end-to-end machine learning projects
• can carry out end-to-end machine learning projects independently

Prerequisites for the course

1st semester: Students have prior knowledge in mathematics/statistics amounting to 8 ECTS and are therefore familiar with simple statistical measures as well as basic statistical test procedures (e.g. t-test). / 2nd semester: No prerequisites / 2nd semester: Module examination MLAL.A1 (Algorithms 1)

Course content

The following topics are discussed in the course:

- Classic neural networks as a complement to classic data science algorithms (e.g. Random Forests, SCM, etc.)
- Convolutional artificial neural networks (CNN)
- Recurrent artificial neural networks (RNN, LSTM)
- Advanced artificial neural networks (GAN, FARM, BERT, CGAN, etc.)

The types of networks discussed are subject to constant change. For this reason, only a few network types are named here as examples. In particular, current network types are also discussed and applied in the course.
