Workshop „Deep Learning - Basic Tool in Artificial Intelligence “

Content

The workshop will cover basic ideas, approaches, techniques, and applications of Neural Networks (NN), Deep Learning (DL), and Artificial Intelligence (AI) and it is aimed at all interested in using these tools in their field of interest. It will cover the core techniques used today and in particular, it plans to introduce error backpropagation algorithm (EBP), single layer NNs and their extensions to multilayers learning structures dubbed DL. The course will combine interactive lectures, exercises and Python code demonstrations aiming at mastering the concepts and get acquainted with the tools which would later enable all the participants to use them in their applications and projects. The workshop will not be focused on specific applications but rather give a broad introduction to the exciting new ideas and approaches in AI. The program includes hands-on sessions, demonstrating practical aspects.
All activities will be online – on the Microsoft Teams platform.
We are looking forward to seeing you participate in this workshop.
