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.

Künstliche Intelligenz und Maschinelles Lernen in der Praxis (openHPI)

Alle reden über “Maschinelles Lernen”, "Neuronale Netze", "Künstliche Intelligenz" und "Deep Learning - doch wie diese Techniken genau in der Praxis funktionieren und eingesetzt werden, erfahren Sie in diesem weiterführenden openHPI Kurs. In diesem vierwöchigen Gratis-Kurs können Jugendliche und andere Interessierte ohne Programmier-Erfahrung und technisches Hintergrundwissen lernen, wie Machine Learning Projekte in der Praxis umgesetzt werden können. Wir wollen dabei das Basiswissen aus dem Kurs “Künstliche Intelligenz und Maschinelles Lernen für Einsteiger” weiter vertiefen und Ihnen ein Gefühl für die Chancen und Herausforderungen von Machine Learning Projekten in der Praxis vermitteln. Dafür betrachten wir mehrere konkrete Anwendungsfälle - unter anderem die Erkennung von Gebärdensprache aus Bildern und die Stimmungsanalyse von Zeitungsartikeln. Geleitet wird der Kurs von den Masterstudenten Johannes Hötter und Christian Warmuth.
