Optimization algorithms for AI and learning algorithms for optimization problems
Course objectives
This course aims at elucidating the deep links between mathematical optimisation and machine learning. The students will be introduced to the following themes and abilities: understand the properties of different kinds of non-linear continuous optimisation algorithms to tune the (hyper-)parameters of machine learning models and how to apply them; understand how to model some advanced machine learning models as bi-level optimisation models; identify situations where machine learning and process mining can be used as a sub-module for combinatorial optimisation problems.
Course delivery
The lectures consist of 24 hours divided between the three themes previously described (respectively 10h/10h/4h) and will take place on Wednesdays afternoons between 1pm and 5pm on the following dates: 2/4/2025, 9/4/2025, 16/4/2025, 30/4/2025, 7/5/2025 and 14/5/2025 at the Computer Science Department of the University of Turin. For students who cannot attend physically, the lectures will be available in streaming
