Tobias Glasmacher, professor for the theoretical foundations of machine learning at the Ruhr University Bochum, will convey the goals and requirements of machine learning in a compact and practical way in his upcoming workshop. He will explain the fundamental conditions and objectives on which machine learning models are based. Around half of the workshop time will consist of practical tasks – such as the classification of handwritten digits (MNIST) with simple Python models, which will give participants an overview of common methods and show how machine learning can be integrated into their own research.
The workshop will take place on Thursday, April 24, 2025, from 9:00 am to 12:30 pm in room IB 06 / 127 on the campus of Ruhr-Universität Bochum.
The workshop will also be held in English. Programming skills (e.g. Python or Matlab) are helpful, but not a prerequisite. No software installation is required – you only need a valid Google account to be able to work in Google Colab. The offer is aimed at students, doctoral candidates and interested colleagues – also outside the CRC.
