Learning outcomes

After successful completion of the course, students are able to use the programming language Julia to solve problems stemming from the fields of differential equations, optimization, and machine learning.

Subject of course

Numerical algorithms for important problems of scientific computing and machine learning are discussed and formulated.  In the practical part (projects), the algorithms are implemented in Julia.  The topics include

  • introduction to the programming language Julia,
  • machine learning,
  • optimization,
  • differential equations (ordinary and partial).
