General Information

Overview

Artificial Intelligence (AI) involves developing systems that are autonomous and intelligent. This unit introduces you to contemporary and emerging AI technologies to address problems such as medical diagnosis, manufacturing optimisation and transport scheduling. You will investigate the application of AI technologies in areas such as computer vision, machine learning and deep learning. Fundamental AI concepts will be considered, including artificial neural networks and model validation techniques. You will develop AI systems using industry tools and learn to develop a business case for an AI system.

Previous Student Feedback

Feedback, Recommendations and Responses

Every unit is reviewed for enhancement each year. At the most recent review, the following staff and student feedback items were identified and recommendations were made.

Feedback from Teaching Team

Feedback

Students feel overloaded with many new theoretical and practical concepts each week, making it difficult for some students to grasp key AI concepts.

Recommendation

Increase practical materials on important AI topics, such as image analysis, face recognition and deep learning models, while reducing some of the theory on less important topics.

Feedback from Head of Postgraduate ICT courses

Feedback

The Moodle site can be streamlined to make it more user-friendly and consistent to adhere with CQURenew guidelines.

Recommendation

Streamline the Moodle site to make it more consistent to adhere with CQURenew guidelines.
