Introduction to AI/Deep Learning

Introduction to AI/Deep Learning
A Biostatistics Short Course

Synchronous with asynchronous option.

A six-week short course for students and researchers interested in gaining a foundational understanding of artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning, and their transformative impacts across various domains, including healthcare, natural language processing, computer vision and medical image analysis. The course covers core AI/deep learning concepts and their applications in different fields including the medical domain. Students will explore how deep learning models are designed, trained and evaluated, and will also explore recent advances in generative AI, including large language models (LLMs such as Llama and ChatGPT), diffusion models, and multimodal learning. This course does not require programming skills or machine learning background.
