Module Number: 14445
Module Title:Seminar Computing at Scale in Machine Learning
  Seminar Computing at Scale im maschinellen Lernen
Department: Faculty GW - Faculty of Health Sciences Brandenburg
Responsible Staff Member:
  • Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Schliep, Alexander
Language of Teaching / Examination:English
Duration:1 semester
Frequency of Offer: Every summer semester
Credits: 4
Learning Outcome:After successfully completing the module, students will be familiar with state-of-the-art problems and methodological approaches in the intersection of large-scale computing and machine learning; that is, computing at scale for machine learning and machine learning for large-scale computation. They will have the ability to familiarize themselves with current research in the area from original research literature, to participate in a technical discussion within the context of international science, and present scientific content in written and oral form.
Contents:Students will learn about specific state-of-the-art problems and methodological approaches for large-scale computation in machine learning. The topics range from parallel computation on individual machines, to implicit parallelism frameworks on compute clusters, and algorithms and data structures supporting efficient exact or approximate computation with massive data sets in and out of core.
