Prerequisites
General Prerequisites
Prior exposition to linear algebra, signals and systems, as well as stochastic signal processing facilitates to grasp faster the concepts introduced.
Learning Outcomes
1) Το get acquainted with computational models of estimation and prediction that are based on Bayesian inference, Kalman filters, particle filters, Gaussian filtering. 2) To apply the theory to dynamical systems, e.g., stock market, weather forecasting, recommndation in the web, robotics.
General Competences
  • Apply knowledge in practice
  • Retrieve, analyse and synthesise data and information, with the use of necessary technologies
  • Adapt to new situations
  • Make decisions
  • Work autonomously
  • Work in teams
  • Work in an interdisciplinary team
  • Generate new research ideas
  • Be critical and self-critical
  • Advance free, creative and causative thinking
