Course description
This summer school course aims to provide the first insight to Artificial Intelligence for students with a background in STEM fields. While the focus of the week is Machine Learning and the current state-of-the-art Deep Learning, our speakers will cover a variety of AI methods from fuzzy systems, to neuromorphic architectures, to provide a throughout foundation of different practical AI methods. Extending this knowledge, the last unit of this summer school is about the possible interfaces of AI, with a deep-dive into Natural Language Processing and Robotics. With a daily Python coding session the students can get familiar with the industry-standard tools to facilitate machine learning projects.
Requirements: We recommend this course for those who are familiar with script coding languages, linear algebra, and the basic ideas behind statistics and probability.
