Supervisor:

Department of Software Engineering

Synopsis:

The second module is oriented first to multi-layer neural networks and next to self-organized artificial neural networks. The biological context, cluster analysis and principal component analysis are used for self-organized artificial neural network realization. Self-organization is discussed in vector spaces.

Requirements:

Basic knowledges from linear algebra.

Syllabus of lectures:

1. Multi-layer perceptron, universal approximation, backpropagation.

2. Vector space with Minkowski metrics.

3. Cluster analysis in vector space.

4. Self-organization, patterns, etalons.

5. SOM topology, Kohonen learning of SOM.

6. Traditional principal component analysis.

7. Introduction to deep learning with a focus on convolutional neural networks.
