Intended learning outcomes
Knowledge and understanding:
After completing this course the student will be able to demonstrate a knowledge and understanding of the:
- construction of intelligent systems which are basis to understand and analyse biomedicine systems,
- data-mining of biomedicine data based on intelligent methods.
The use of knowledge:
The student will be able to use the acquired knowledge to construct different intelligent systems for data-mining and monitoring of biomedicine data. The student will be able to critically evaluate the consistency between the acquired knowledge and the application of the concepts in practice.
Transferable skills:
- the use of literature and other resources in the fields of intelligent systems in data mining and system monitoring;
- the use of development tools and environments for computer programming (writing computer programs in different programming languages or using the Matlab development environment);
- problem solving: problem analysis, algorithm design, implementation and testing of a program.
