Content

In this course, you will be introduced to the foundations of deep learning, the most effective and common network structures and their applications and how to build, train and evaluate deep neural networks for different applications. This includes:

  • Neurons, layers, back propagation, optimizers, loss functions, hyperparameters
  • Unsupervised, supervised and semi-supervised learning approaches.
  • Transfer learning
  • Multilayer Perceptron Network (MPN)
  • Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)
  • Time Series analysis
  • Reccurent Neural Network (RNN) and Long Short-Term Memory networks (LSTMs)
  • Autoencoders
  • Natural language processing (NLP)

    • Natural Language Understanding (NLU) and Embeddings.
  • Image classification and Object detection
  • Video Activity recognition
  • Deep Reinforcement Learning
  • Deep learning in image reconstruction and medical imaging.

Learning outcome

At the end of this course the student should have a fundamental understanding of methods and deep neural network structures commonly used in deep learning. The student should also be able to build, train and evaluate models for one or more practical deep learning problems.

Exam

Form of assessment Weight Duration Marks Aid Exam system Withdrawal deadline Exam date
Project assessement 1/1 Letter grades


The assigned project is carried out in groups of two students. Exceptionally, it can be one or three students per group. The report describes and documents work in the project. The report is made in collaboration with all the participants in the group and all participants will get the same grade. An oral presentation of the project is a mandatory part of the project.

There is no resit exam in this course. A new project report must be submitted the next time the course is taught.

Method of work

The course has a duration of approximately 8 weeks and will be completed mid October. Lectures will be held the first 5 weeks. The students are expected to spend additional 6-8 hours a week on self-study and assignments.

The project will be carried out in the last three weeks of the course and it is expected that each student spend about 15 hours per week.

Emneevaluering

There must be an early dialogue between the course supervisor, the student union representative and the students. The purpose is feedback from the students for changes and adjustments in the course for the current semester.In addition, a digital subject evaluation must be carried out at least every three years. Its purpose is to gather the students experiences with the course.
