Competencies

Non-official translation of the module descriptions. Only the German version is legally binding.

Participants learn concepts and methods for structuring and using machine learning methods for more complex tasks.
tasks. This includes learning architectures, active learning strategies and sequential learning with restrictions, such as delayed success feedback or only partial system observability.
system observability. In addition, the lecture provides an overview of the most important theoretical approaches to machine learning.
theoretical approaches to machine learning and their mutual relationships.

Content of teaching

Building on the module "Neural Networks and Learning", the learning methods considered there are subjected to a more detailed theoretical examination - especially from a statistical point of view. Furthermore, various learning architectures, in particular committee methods and reinforcement learning, are discussed.

Recommended previous knowledge

Competences, such as those acquired in modules 39-Inf-NN Introduction to Neural Networks

Necessary requirements

Explanation regarding the elements of the module

In some degree programmes, the module (partial) examination can also be "ungraded" at the student's discretion. A corresponding specification must be made before the module is taken; a subsequent change (graded - ungraded) is not possible. If the ungraded option is selected, it is not possible to use this module for a degree programme in which this module is taken into account in the overall grade calculation.

In some degree programmes of the Faculty of Technology, the module examination can also be "ungraded" at the student's discretion (see explanations of the module elements and the respective subject-specific regulations). If the ungraded option is selected, it is not possible to use this module for a degree programme in which this module is taken into account in the overall grade calculation.

Portfolio of exercises that are set during the course (pass mark 50% of the achievable points, individual explanation of the solutions). The exercises in the portfolio are usually handed out weekly. Final oral examination (15-25 min.) on the contents of the lecture and tutorials (in connection with lecture/seminar) or alternatively two board presentations on previously selected exercises.
