This course gives an introduction to neural networks and deep learning. The emphasis lies on acquiring a conceptual understanding of the current state of the art, and implementing these methods with the Tensorflow and Keras software libraries.
The book 'Deep learning with Python, Second Edition' from Francois Chollet is followed.
The student implements two small and one large machine learning projects in Google Colab.
The following things are covered:
- History of machine learning and deep learning.
- Mathematical concepts of neural networks.
- Fundamental concepts in machine learning: choice of loss function, feature engineering, overfitting, ...
- Best practices for practical implementations: hyperparameter optimization, model ensembling, ...
- Convolutional neural networks. Applied to image data, both for classificaiton and segmentation.
- Recurrent neural networks such as LSTM and GRU. Applied to time series data.
- The Keras and Tensorflow software libraries, including more advanced techniques such as the functional API, callbacks, and Tensorboard.

| Evaluation conditions (participation and/or pass) | ✔ |
|
| Conditions | A student must at least attend all components of the evaluation.
A student must obtain a tolerable exam result (≥8/20) for each component to be able to pass the programme component.
The student must submit the homeworks and project by the dates communicated on Blackboard. |
|
|
|
| Consequences | If a student does not attend one of the evaluation components, he/she will receive an 'A - unauthorized absence' for the programme component.
If the student achieves less than 8/20 in part of this programme component, this lowest partial grade will be the final grade for the entire programme component for the examination opportunity concerned.
If the homeworks and projects are not submitted or are submitted late, the student will receive 0 for the homework or project.
For the following partial evaluations, the ability to complete a particular assignment within a given timeframe is part of the evaluation: the two homeworks and the project. Students in special circumstances who have been granted extra time as a special arrangement can therefore not invoke such arrangements for the above partial evaluations. |
|
|
|
| Additional information | The exam counts for a total of 8 points.
Points for the first homework (1.5 points), second homework (2.5 points), and project (8 points) are awarded during the teaching period. |

| Prerequisites |

- The student has a basic proficiency in Python, or medium to advanced proficiency in another programming language.
- The student has a basic understanding of vector algebra (dot product, transpose, ...) and calculus (gradient, chain rule for derivatives, ...). |
