Aim:
The aim is that students after passing the course will be able to design and apply artificial neural networks and other learning systems for adaptive data analysis. Students will also be able to apply such methods in order to find meaningful relations in multidimensional signals where the degree of complexity makes traditional model-based methods unsuitable or impossible to use.
Specifically, students should be able to:
- Explain the difference between particular learning paradigms
- Implement and use common methods in those paradigms
- Select an appropriate method for solving a given problem

Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
Requisite: Algebra, Calculus, Mathematical statistics.
Recommended: Signal theory.
Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.
