| Course contents | This lecture deals with the basic principles and procedures of the pattern recognition in particular from a probabilistic point of view. The following topics are discussed in the course: fundamentals (among other things stochastic, model selection, “Curse of Dimensionality”, decision-making and information theory), distributions (multinomial, Dirichlet, Gaussian and student distribution, nonparametric estimation), linear models of regression, linear models of classification, mixed models and “Expectation Maximisation”, approximate inference, combination of models, statistical learning theory (support vector machines), examples of applications (online clustering, anomaly detection, etc.) |
