CSCI-4800/5800: AI with Reinforcement Learning

Graduate course, SCIENCE-1067 (Tue only) + Online async, 2023

We now live in an era of Artificial Intelligence (AI) where we rely on responses as well as actions by numerous autonomous systems that are crisscrossed in our daily lives. These systems are powered by AI that learn to provide us with reasonable answers for us with respect to our respective perspectives. Reinforcement learning is one of the most advanced and powerful way of developing such systems and are very much in line with the learning paradigms used to make us knowledgeable since our childhood, which is to learn from our mistakes. In this course, students are going to get a solid foundation in the field of reinforcement learning, learn the core challenges, and ideas to bring in newer approaches to make the systems robust, and more humanoid, and better to some degree. Through a combination of lectures, programming assignments students are expected to receive a hands-on-experience in exploring this field effectively. In addition, through the final project in this course, students will advance their understanding of reinforcement learning paradigm and are going to be able to design, develop and demonstrate by the end of the semester smart competitive players in video games, autonomous chatbots, autonomous vehicle control systems, early detection of malicious activities in the communication networks in the field of cybersecurity, and so on.

CSCI-5800: Machine Learning

Cross-listed course (ugrad+grad), Lawrence Street Center - 840, 2018

Welcome to Machine learning course. What is machine learning? It is concerned with the question of how to write computer programs that automatically improve with experience. The field has expanded so much in every direction of our daily lives that we mostly are unaware of its presence. Interestingly, there may be two perspectives to this oblivion. First one is that the machine learning applications have greatly improved themselves over time and became part of your lifestyle. However, a completely opposite perspective is that we became part of it, and unknowingly feeding input to the program as if we are in a computer simulation? In this class, you will learn about machine learning, its application in diverse domains, get to implement them yourself and raise awareness of its presence and associated implications in our day-to-day lives. Once again welcome aboard.
