Learning outcomes of the course unit
  • Since its beginnings, the field of artificial intelligence has always been used in the medical field. While it used to be possible to capture expert knowledge in explicit rules and thus support medical diagnosis, for example, this is no longer possible today. On the one hand, because the complexity of the data has steadily increased, on the other hand, because in many cases (e.g. in the analysis of radio-logical images) no explicit rules can be formulated. In particular, the field of machine learning, as a sub-field of artificial intelligence, has emerged in recent years as an extremely useful tool for the analysis of such data. The students should gain access to different methods of machine learning and be able to use these methods to solve practical problems with the help of current software libraries.
