Machine Learning services in the cloud (5 cr)

Evaluation scale

0-5

Objective

Do You Want to learn how to understand cloud services that enable the construction of AI (Artificial Intelligence) and ML (machine learning) services with ready-made models and cloud services? In the course, the students will familiarise and utilise artificial intelligence and machine learning services with image- and optical character recognition and forecasting services in the cloud. The course enables students to understand the potential of cloud-based AI and machine learning services in a digital operating environments.
