Recent developments in machine learning due to availability of data and computational power promise to revolutionize almost every area of science. The driving technology behind this advancement is deep learning – a machine learning technology based on artificial neural networks consisting of many layers. Deep learning is capable of processing huge amount of data of different nature and already outperforming humans in many decision-making tasks. Biomedical research became now a source of large heterogeneous data, i.e. images, video, activity sensors, omics and text data. Leveraging the opportunities of the deep learning technology in the biomedical field requires particular set of skills combining thorough knowledge of necessary algorithms, specifics of biomedical data and designated programming tools. In this course we aim to offer students with background in computer science an opportunity to acquire the above skills to be able to deploy deep learning technology with a focus on biomedical applications. The course is structured as a seminar, where students under extensive guidance of instructors read fundamental books and recent research articles on deep learning, learn necessary programming tools, and produce their own implementations of computational pipelines in case studies using already published or original data. Starting from fundamental aspects of deep learning we aim to cover its applications to e.g. image data, time series data, text data, complex networks and genomics data.
