About the course

Fundamentals of Deep Learning. Generalization, Regularization and Validation, Optimization and Hyperparameter Tuning, Convolutional Neutral Networks, Recurrent Neural Networks, and Graph Neural Networks. Classification and Regression Tasks. Visualization & Advanced Computer Vision Methods. Autoencoders. Generative models, variational autoencoders, generative adversarial networks. Applications in physics and engineering, for example, image recognition, analysis of time series data, pulse shape discrimination, real-time low-power on-device computing (IoT applications); Practical skills of using the TensorFlow framework via the high-level Keras python interface; Methods to verify neural network predictions, e.g., through independent experimental data that is obtained in a lab assignment.

Outline for distance course: In the distance course, communication between teachers and students is done using the learning management system and e-meeting tools. A computer with a stable internet connection and webcam is required for participating in the course and examination.
