Description
Content
The course contains basic facts about machine learning, especially about artificial neural networks. We study the structure, the parameters, the activation functions and error functions used in neural networks and the mathematics behind them. The choice of the parameters and functions and the minimization of the error during the learning phase of the network is based on differential calculus and linear algebra. We learn the basic things about differential calculus and linear algebra.
Learning outcomes
