Neural networks: introduction to biological neural networks, Artificial Neural Networks, topologies (Multilayer, recurrent, fully meshed), Self-Organizing Feature Maps, spiking neural networks, emergent patterns in ANN

Machine learning: Genetic algorithms, simulated anneahling, Sintflut algorithm, rule-based learning, bayesian networks

Modeling and Simulation (?)

Algorithms and Data Structures

Lecture and Lab.

Content: Sorting and searching, tree-based structures, graph algorithms (over), recursive algorithms, complexity classes and computational effort.
