Summer School - Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Lady Margaret Hall, UK

Publish Date: May 22, 2022

Deadline: Jun 10, 2022

Event Dates: from Aug 07, 2022 12:00 to Aug 27, 2022 12:00

In our age of burgeoning smart technology and automation we are already seeing the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in fields as diverse as finance, medicine, and manufacturing. This course offers a hands-on introduction to this future-focused area of research.
You will be introduced to the Python programming language and the theoretical foundations of the key concepts in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, before embarking on linear regressions and tackling loss function, regularization techniques, and bias-variance trade-off. You will explore and implement stochastic gradients descent for regression using TensorFlow and PyTorch. The course progresses from simple Neural Networks to Convolutional Neural Networks and the implementation of MNIST classification. By the end of the course large-scale problems of semantic segmentation, edge detection and metric learning will be implemented on AWS/Google Cloud. Throughout the course you will solve practical problems of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning from diverse domains.

Course leader
Dr Naeemullah Khan is a Research Fellow at Lady Margaret Hall and a Postdoctoral Research Scientist at the Department of Engineering, University of Oxford.

Target group
This course would suit STEM students in undergraduate or entry-level postgraduate study. Basic knowledge of calculus and linear algebra is required, and some experience of coding is recommended. Prior knowledge of Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, or the Python programming language is not required.
