LV-Beschreibung

Intendierte Lernergebnisse

This lecture is subdivided into two parts:

PART 1. This part familiarizes students with the fundamentals of optimization and neural networks. Selected applications are considered in various fields of engineering including transportation.

The general expectation regarding the knowledge to be provided/acquired is as follows:

  • Mastering of the basics of optimization and selected applications
  • Mastering of some MATLAB Toolboxes (e.g. Linear programming and Quadratic programming toolboxes) and their application in solving linear and nonlinear optimization problems.
  • Mastering of Recurrent Neural Networks and their application in solving linear and nonlinear optimization problems.
  • Mastering of the development of simulation algorithms (based on Recurrent Neural Networks) for the solving of shortest path problems and traveling salesman problems in graph networks.

Lehrmethodik inkl. Einsatz von eLearning-Tools

The slides are available for the entire lecture. These slides are uploaded into the MOODLE system. The entire content of each slide is systematically explained by the lecturer.

Additional examples that are not included in the slides are suggested by the lecturer to allow a good understanding of the information provided.

The slides contain exercises with solutions to allow a good understanding of the contents of each chapter. These solutions are systematically explained (during the lecture) by the lecturer.

The Lecturer provides full explanation of how to write numerical codes to solve the exercises proposed in each chapter of the Lecture.
