Lecture: Tuesdays 12:00-13:30 o'clock in the
upper INI seminar room ND 03/89,92.
Description: This course covers a variety of unsupervised methods from machine learning such as principal component analysis, independent component analysis, vector quantization, clustering, self-organizing maps, growing neural gas, Bayesian theory and graphical models, deep-belief networks, and Markov random fields.
Language: The course will be given in English upon request.
Literature: For many topics a script will be available, other literature will be mentioned in the lecture.
Prerequisites: Good command of linear algebra and calculus.
