The aim of this course is to provide students with basic theoretical knowledge of artificial intelligence, its application in various fields (such as finance, agriculture, healthcare, etc.) and how different artificial intelligence models are built.
The study course is learned independently, using learning materials posted on the e-study portal. Materials consist of theoretical materials (lectures), practical works (assignments) and tests.
Knowledge:
• in the application of artificial intelligence;
Skills:
• justify what type of AI model would be most suitable for the development of a specific solution;
• prepare data for further use in a machine learning model;
• use various artificial intelligence platforms that offer you to create your own machine learning models without using programming languages
Competencies:
• independently evaluate whether the given problem can be solved using artificial intelligence and what digital tools should be used.

In order for the study course to be counted as successfully completed:
1) The student must submit at least 80% of all practical work - self-check tests and practical work. The self-check test is considered submitted if the student has answered at least 70% of the questions correctly.
2) Successful completion (at least 65%) of the final exam in test format.
If the student has not submitted at least 80% of the practical work, he is not admitted to the final test.
The study course is learned independently, by the student, using the materials added to the e-study portal.
The student follows the attached course plan, which describes both the order in which the lectures of the study course must be studied and the tasks to be completed after the lecture.
After certain lectures, the student must complete self-check tests, which are attached to the study course and available on the e-study portal. The self-check tests are designed in such a way that the student can check his knowledge after learning the theory on the specific topic.
In addition, during the study course, the student has to do practical work. Descriptions of the tasks of the practical works are attached and available on the e-study portal. The student completes the tasks online using the free version of "Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Studio".
The completion of a study course is evaluated with a pass/fail grade. To pass the course, the student must complete at least 80% of all practical work and successfully pass (at least 65%) the final exam in a test format.
