Course detail
Multi-valued Logic Applications
FSI-SAL Acad. year: 2024/2025 Summer semester
The course is devoted to artificial intelligence algorithms in both theoretical and practical aspects. In the course, students will learn about the theoretical mathematical background of each area of methods and then implement them. Matlab is used as the programming environment and some implementations will be presented in Python.
The first part of the course covers machine learning methods – kNN, Support Vector Machine, decision trees. The second part discusses various neural networks, deep learning and more complex R-CNNs and autoencoders. Students will learn how to create their own training and test data, build appropriate layers such as convolutional neural networks, perform validation and evaluation of results.
The course also includes invited lectures on language analysis using neural networks.
