The focus of the course is on machine learning methods and algorithms for communication protocols of Internet of Things (IoT). The course starts with an introduction of applications of network architecture. Thereafter, methods for communication protocols are treated and how these methods can be applied in the design of important aspects of the communication protocol stack. The course analyses machine learning algorithms that can be run on IoT systems, where data and calculations are distributed.
EP271V Internet of Things and Artificial Intelligence 7.5 credits
The Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are technologies that make “the world of everything connected” because they can connect physical objects, people, or infrastructure, especially thanks to wireless communications. IoT and AI allow us to gather data, make data analysis, and ultimately take some automatic decisions. We will use IoT and AI in the digitalized world, where vehicles will drive without human drivers, and energy and water resources will be distributed much more efficiently than today. This course gives an overview on the most important aspects of wireless networking and machine learning for AI over IoT.
