Description
The school is aimed at giving a wide view of modern machine learning, from theoretical foundations to state-of-the-art applications. The school will consist of lectures mixing the theoretical aspect and hands-on examples. Furthermore, there will be exercise sessions where participants will go through longer exercises at their own pace, with the assistance of the lecturer and of facilitators.
Covered topics:
1. Mathematical foundations of ML | Vapnik’s theory of statistical learning | Early methods from statistics to ML: PCA, SVM, decision trees
2. Supervised learning: neural networks, gradient descent | Technical foundations: automatic differentiation | Hardware foundations: from CPUs to GPUs, TPUs, FPGAs, ASIC, neuromorphic circuits | Practical techniques (e.g. hyperparameters optimization, regularization)
3.
Transformers, large language models | Spiking networks | Unsupervised learning | Quantum machine learning
