Advanced simulation and machine learning
About
The course covers a selection of machine learning algorithms and statistical methods for simulating physical systems. The course is based on a set of projects, which are accompanied by lectures, and hands-on computer exercises. During the course, the students will be exposed to advanced scientific research problems, with the aim to reproduce state-of-the-art scientific results.
The students will use e.g. the Python programming language and relevant open-source libraries, and will learn to develop and structure computer codes for carrying out scientific and statistical data analyses.
This course is open to
Exchange students at the Faculty of Science and exchange students on a university-wide agreement. Please contact your international coordinator at the University of Gothenburg if you need to know more.
