DSC 180 Capstone Domain: Explainable AI (Section A01)
- Instructor: Jurgen Schulze
- Discussion: Wednesdays 12-12:50pm on Zoom at https://ucsd.zoom.us/j/9100475160
- Piazza Discussion Board: https://piazza.com/ucsd/fall2020/dsc180
Overview
In this capstone domain we are going to study how we can make machine learning systems more user friendly by exploiting additional knowledge we can derive from the system and present it to the user. These types of systems are called Explainable AI.
The example we are going to use in this class is object recognition in images. We are first going to go over the basics of CNNs, then learn about saliency and attention maps, and finally we are going to implement the Grad-CAM algorithm in PyTorch and apply it to the COCO image data set.
The quarter will end with a proposal for your capstone project, which you will be working on in the winter quarter.
This class will be entirely remote.
