Our Practical Artificial Intelligence - Level 4 Course takes you behind the scenes of this developing technology, providing everything you need to know, expressed in simple terms, to gain an understanding of the complex technologies behind AI, and including numerous hands-on practical exercises and projects using the Python programming language (all of the code is provided, and we even include a crash course in Python for those who need it).
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a set of technologies, including machine learning, deep learning, and neural networks, that enable computers to perform human-like advanced functions, including the ability to see, understand and translate spoken and written language, analyse data, make recommendations, and much more, including controlling self-driving cars.
We investigate how computers are able to use historical data to learn how to make predictions, like forecasting a stock price movement or a cricket match score, how to recognise images, such as faces and traffic signs, and we dive under the hood to examine the technologies behind self-driving cars. We also explore the current state-of-the-art in robotics, including the use of AI-powered robotic arms in surgery and a range of manufacturing industries and delve into the techniques behind Natural Language Processing and automatic language translation.
Each unit is designed to build on what you learned in the previous unit and the course is designed around the “learn-by-example” methodology, with a wide range of real-life examples provided to demonstrate new concepts as you learn them. You also get the chance to practice your skills with a variety of interesting exercises and assignments. You will even build your own neural network using advanced deep learning techniques!
On successful completion of the course, students will receive the Distance Learning Centre Practical Artificial Intelligence Diploma with feedback and analysis of your completed work, as well as an Open Awards Quality Endorsed Unit Course Certificate.
