Aim:
The course presents the analysis of several large classes of models widely used in advanced machine learning, such as state-space models, gaussian processes, hidden Markov models, Bayesian networks, and Markov random fields. Students will learn about the structure and learning of these models, when they are applicable, how to use them in practical machine learning applications, and how to correctly interpret the results. The models are mainly analyzed from a Bayesian perspective.
After completing the course, the student should be able to:
- use the introduced model classes to accurately formulate and solve practical problems.
- learn the parameters and perform predictions in the presented models.
- evaluate and choose among the models within each class.
- implement the models and learning methods in a programming language.

Organisation:
The course consists of lectures, seminars and computer laboratory work. The lectures introduce concepts and theories that students then use in problem solving at the computer labs. Seminars comprise student presentations and discussion of computer lab reports.
