Målsætning : • To give the student a basic knowledge of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), i.e. the principles of neural networks, learning algorithms, and their testing and usage
• To make the student able to analyse a given classification problem and argue for the selection of the appropriate neural network for its solution
• To let the student gain experience in designing neural networks such as multilayer perceptrons, partially recurrent nets, and RBF nets..
• To give the student a basic understanding of advanced neural network technology, and thus to make the student able to follow the field and study its literature.
Hovedindhold : Introduction to the principles of biological nervous systems with emphasis on the human brain and its neurons.
Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) and their use::
• Adaline, perceptron, multilayer perceptrons
• Linear models, estimation, regression, least square, LMS algorithm
• Pattern recognition, classifiers, supervised and non supervised learning
• Training algorithms, back propagation, adaptive systems
• Non-linear models, perceptron, MLP, training, classification, error and stop criteria
• Function approximation with MLP, Radial Basis Function networks, vector support machines
• Hebbian learning, Oja´s rule, anti-Hebbian learning, Associative Memory, Winner-take-all networks,
• Self Organising Maps and their use
• Use of ANNs in digital signal processing, with emphasis on, adaptive filters
• Static versus Dynamic systems, time-delay neural network
• Training and using recurrent networks, feedback parameters, Hopfield networks,
• Introduction to pulsed neural network and their electronic equivalents
Undervisningsform : The curriculum is based on an interactive book – overview lessons will allow (groups of) the students to study the interactive sessions and perform the related simulation exercises. Mat Lab examples and code will be used.
Krævede forudsætninger : Math, analogue and digital design equivalent to 4.th semester level like DSM3/DSM4
Anbefalede forudsætninger : Basic knowledge of statistics is a benefit

Relationer : The principles of neural networks are used in many other fields such as Decision analysis, Control-theory, Signal and Image-processing, Pattern recognition, Noise reduction, Robot-control, Sonar-analysis, Radar tracking systems, Planning, and Microwave simulation.

7-point grading scale

The grading is based on assignment reports and a written exam.
To pass the course the students must be present at min. 80% of the lessons and each student must hand in reports on 2 mandatory practical assignments, which must be accepted.
Evaluation criterias:
12: For an excellent performance.
7: For a good performance.
02: For an adequate performance.
