Machine Intelligence

2025/2026

Content, progress and pedagogy of the module

Machine intelligence refers to advanced computing technologies that enable a machine or system to interact with the environments or solve complex problems in an intelligent way with no need for a predefined set of rules.  Such systems rely on machine learning and artificial intelligence methods among others.

The project module aims to extend the knowledge and skills of students for applying the related technologies and methods to real-world problems.
