An Introduction to Probabilistic Machine Learning (openHPI)

An Introduction to Probabilistic Machine Learning (openHPI)

Probabilistic machine learning has gained a lot of practical relevance over the past 15 years as it is highly data-efficient, allows practitioners to easily incorporate domain expertise and, due to the recent advances in efficient approximate inference, is highly scalable. Moreover, it has close relations to causal inference which is one of the key methods for measuring cause-effect relationship of machine learning models and explainable artificial intelligence. This openHPI course will introduce all recent developments in probabilistic modeling and inference. It will cover both the theoretical as well as practical and computational aspects of probabilistic machine learning.

This openHPI course will introduce all recent developments in probabilistic modeling and inference. It will cover both the theoretical as well as practical and computational aspects of probabilistic machine learning.
This course requires some Python and C/C++ programming; we will use the Collab feature of openHPI. We will also assume that the participants have a solid understanding of analysis and calculus.

KI und Datenqualität - Perspektiven aus Data Science, Ethik, Normung und Recht (openHPI)

Ohne Daten gibt es keine Künstliche Intelligenz. Maschinelles Lernen benutzt große Datenmengen, um KI-Modelle zu trainieren. Eine der größten Herausforderungen beim Einsatz von gesellschaftlich verträglicher KI ist die Bereitstellung ausreichender, besonders aber qualitativ hochwertiger Trainingsdaten. In dem Kurs “KI und Datenqualität” berichten Expertinnen und Experten aus den Bereichen Informatik, Recht, Ethik und Normung über diese vielfältigen Aspekte der Daten für die Künstliche Intelligenz.

Künstliche Intelligenz und maschinelles Lernen für Einsteiger (openHPI)

Hier lernen Jugendliche und andere Interessierte ohne Programmier-Erfahrung und technisches Hintergrund-Wissen, die Welt des maschinellen Lernens und der künstlichen Intelligenz zu verstehen. Wir führen Sie dazu in die grundlegenden Konzepte ein. Dabei erfahren Sie, wo die Unterschiede zwischen herkömmlicher Programmierung und der Entwicklung selbstlernender Software liegen. Anhand von Beispielen erfahren Sie, was überwachtes, nicht überwachtes und verstärkendes Lernen sind. Denn diese Konzepte bilden den Kern für die Algorithmen, welche das maschinelle Lernen bewirken. Erleben Sie anhand einer konkreten Anwendung, wie mit einem solchen Lernprozess Muster und Strukturen in großen Datenmengen erkannt werden können. Auch auf ethische Fragen beim Einsatz künstlicher Intelligenz sowie die Begrenzungen der Technologie maschinellen Lernens wird in dem vierwöchigen Gratis-Kurs eingegangen. Geleitet wird er von den Masterstudenten Johannes Hötter und Christian Warmuth.

Probabilistic Graphical Models 2: Inference (Coursera)

Probabilistic graphical models (PGMs) are a rich framework for encoding probability distributions over complex domains: joint (multivariate) distributions over large numbers of random variables that interact with each other. These representations sit at the intersection of statistics and computer science, relying on concepts from probability theory, graph algorithms, machine learning, and more.
