KurzbeschreibungThis seminar discusses recent relevant contributions to the fields of computational genomics, algorithmic bioinformatics, statistical genetics and related areas. Each participant will hold a presentation and lead the subsequent discussion.
LernzielPreparing and holding a scientific presentation in front of peers is a central part of working in the scientific domain. In this seminar, the participants will learn how to efficiently summarize the relevant parts of a scientific publication, critically reflect its contents, and summarize it for presentation to an audience. The necessary skills to succesfully present the key points of existing research work are the same as needed to communicate own research ideas.
In addition to holding a presentation, each student will both contribute to as well as lead a discussion section on the topics presented in the class.
InhaltThe topics covered in the seminar are related to recent computational challenges that arise from the fields of genomics and biomedicine, including but not limited to genomic variant interpretation, genomic sequence analysis, compressive genomics tasks, single-cell approaches, privacy considerations, statistical frameworks, etc.
Both recently published works contributing novel ideas to the areas mentioned above as well as seminal contributions from the past are amongst the list of selected papers.
Voraussetzungen / BesonderesKnowledge of algorithms and data structures and interest in applications in genomics and computational biomedicine.

KurzbeschreibungIn this seminar, recent papers of the machine learning and data science literature are presented and discussed. Possible topics cover statistical models, machine learning algorithms and its applications.
LernzielThe seminar “Advanced Topics in Machine Learning and Data Science” familiarizes students with recent developments in machine learning and data science. Recently published articles, as well as influential papers, have to be presented and critically reviewed. The students will learn how to structure a scientific presentation, which covers the motivation, key ideas and main results of a scientific paper. An important goal of the seminar presentation is to summarize the essential ideas of the paper in sufficient depth for the audience to be able to follow its main conclusion, especially why the article is (or is not) worth attention. The presentation style will play an important role and should reach the level of professional scientific presentations.
InhaltThe seminar will cover a number of recent papers which have emerged as important contributions to the machine learning and data science literatures. The topics will vary from year to year but they are centered on methodological issues in machine learning and its application, not only to text or images, but other scientific
domains like medicine, climate or physics.
LiteraturThe papers will be presented in the first session of the seminar.

KurzbeschreibungNetwork models can be used to analyze non-iid data because their structure incorporates interconnectedness between the individuals. We introduce networks, describe them mathematically, and consider applications.
LernzielNetwork models can be used to analyze non-iid data because their structure incorporates interconnectedness between the individuals. The participants of the seminar acquire knowledge to formulate and analyze network models and to apply them in examples.

Voraussetzungen / BesonderesEvery class will consist of an oral presentation highlighting key ideas of selected book chapters by a pair of students. Another two students will be responsible for asking questions during the presentation and providing a discussion of the the presented concepts and ideas, including pros+cons, at the end. Finally, an additional two students are responsible for giving an evaluation on the quality of the presentations/discussions and provide constructive feedback for improvement.
