CSCI 165 - Bio-inspired Machine Learning

Prerequisite: CSCI 115 or permission of instructor
Bio-inspired machine learning is a field of study which seeks to solve computer science problems using models of biology. It relates to connectionism, social behavior, and emergence. This course focuses on selected bioinspired machine learning topics with an emphasis on optimization. Topics include meta-heuristics, evolutionary game theory, combinatorial optimization, gradient descent optimization, learning theories, and artificial neural networks. (Formerly CSCI 191T)
