Course Description

This course introduces the foundations of intelligent systems, such as probabilistic modeling and inference, statistical machine learning, computer vision, and robotics, to undergraduate students. Topics include Bayesian networks, hidden Markov models, Kalman filters, Markov decision processes, linear regression, linear classification, neural networks, deep learning, nonparametric models, and reinforcement learning. Students will also learn about how these methods are applied to practical applications such as computer vision and robotics. Lectures will be in English.
