&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;April 15th (morning+afternoon): basics on machine learning, practice with notebook using scikit learn (MG)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;April 16th (morning+afternoon): deep learning and automated differenciation, practice with notebook using pytorch (MG)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;April 17th morning: interpretable machine learning (ET)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;April 17th afternoon: sparse representations (LP)
If not done already, please install a (reasonably) recent version of python (easy option is anaconda, see details here: &lt;a href="https://etulab.univ-amu.fr/gilson.m/compneuro_course%29" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;https://etulab.univ-amu.fr/gilson.m/compneuro_course)&lt;/a&gt;. Importantly, part of the course will rely on pytorch, see instructions for installing a dedicated environment here: &lt;a href="https://etulab.univ-amu.fr/gilson.m/compneuro_course/-/tree/main/autodiff" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;https://etulab.univ-amu.fr/gilson.m/compneuro_course/-/tree/main/autodiff&lt;/a&gt; (we can do together it the first morning for those who have trouble).
The first day (or morning depending on how we go), we will first review basics in supervised learning, to be on the same page (with a focus on recursive feature elimination): &lt;a href="https://etulab.univ-amu.fr/gilson.m/compneuro_course/-/tree/main/sup_lrn" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;https://etulab.univ-amu.fr/gilson.m/compneuro_course/-/tree/main/sup_lrn&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If some of you are interested in machine learning for time series, we can have a session on this (we&amp;rsquo;ll decide together on Monday morning)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Following, we will focus on autodifferenciation, first from scratch and then using pytorch, see &lt;a href="https://etulab.univ-amu.fr/gilson.m/compneuro_course/-/tree/main/autodiff" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;https://etulab.univ-amu.fr/gilson.m/compneuro_course/-/tree/main/autodiff&lt;/a&gt; (in progress of being updated)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And a few datasets are available there: &lt;a href="https://etulab.univ-amu.fr/gilson.m/compneuro_course/-/tree/main/data" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;https://etulab.univ-amu.fr/gilson.m/compneuro_course/-/tree/main/data&lt;/a&gt; ; in particular we will use the MNIST dataset as a benchmark for classification, etc.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Artificial neural networks applied to the understanding of biological vision</title><link>https://laurentperrinet.github.io/talk/2024-04-10-ue-neurosciences-computationnelles/</link><pubDate>Wed, 10 Apr 2024 09:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://laurentperrinet.github.io/talk/2024-04-10-ue-neurosciences-computationnelles/</guid><description/></item><item><title>Interactions between machine learning, artificial neural networks and our understanding of biological vision</title><link>https://laurentperrinet.github.io/talk/2023-05-10-phd-program-neurosciences-computationnelles/</link><pubDate>Wed, 10 May 2023 14:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://laurentperrinet.github.io/talk/2023-05-10-phd-program-neurosciences-computationnelles/</guid><description/></item><item><title>Artificial neural networks and machine learning applied to the understanding of biological vision</title><link>https://laurentperrinet.github.io/talk/2023-04-05-ue-neurosciences-computationnelles/</link><pubDate>Wed, 05 Apr 2023 09:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://laurentperrinet.github.io/talk/2023-04-05-ue-neurosciences-computationnelles/</guid><description/></item><item><title>Artificial neural networks and machine learning applied to the understanding of biological vision</title><link>https://laurentperrinet.github.io/talk/2023-04-03-master-m-4-nc/</link><pubDate>Mon, 03 Apr 2023 14:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://laurentperrinet.github.io/talk/2023-04-03-master-m-4-nc/</guid><description/></item><item><title>Réseaux de neurones artificiels et apprentissage machine appliqués à la compréhension de la vision</title><link>https://laurentperrinet.github.io/talk/2022-03-23-ue-neurosciences-computationnelles/</link><pubDate>Wed, 23 Mar 2022 09:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://laurentperrinet.github.io/talk/2022-03-23-ue-neurosciences-computationnelles/</guid><description>&lt;ul&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Modalités: les étudiants s&amp;rsquo;organisent seuls, en binome ou en trinome pour fournir un mémoire sous forme de &lt;a href="https://jupyter.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;notebook&lt;/a&gt; complété à partir &lt;a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/laurentperrinet/2020-04_UE-neurosciences-computationnelles/master/MainenSejnowski1995.ipynb" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;du modèle qui est fourni&lt;/a&gt;. Suivez les balises &lt;code&gt;TODO&lt;/code&gt; dans le notebook pour vous guider dans cette rédaction. Les commentaires doivent être fait en français (ou en anglais si nécessaire) dans le notebook (n&amp;rsquo;oubliez-pas de sauver vos changements) et envoyé par e-mail à mailto:laurent.perrinet@univ-amu.fr une fois votre travail fini (de préférence avant le 31 avri).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Outils nécessaires: &lt;a href="https://jupyter.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Jupyter&lt;/a&gt;, avec &lt;a href="https://numpy.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;numpy&lt;/a&gt; et &lt;a href="https://matplotlib.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;matplotlib&lt;/a&gt;. Ce sont des outils standard et qui sont facilement installables sur toute plateforme. Si vous avez des problèmes, me joindre par e-mail 👇&lt;/li&gt;
