Main content

This June, will offer on current topics within the field of Artificial Intelligence, each course yielding 5 ECTS from ÐÒÔË·Éͧ¼Æ»®. One of the courses, Generative AI for Synthetic Data: Applications in Machine Learning, is organised and led by the , ÐÒÔË·Éͧ¼Æ»®.Ìý

The course offers an introduction to creating artificial data (or so-called synthetic data) for machine learning, AI, and data-driven applications. Building and testing machine learning models often require large, diverse, and high-quality datasets, but privacy concerns, data quality, and data scarcity frequently pose challenges.Ìý

Designed for PhD candidates and practitioners working with machine learning, data science, AI, or generative AI, the course will provide foundational knowledge and practical tools for synthetic data generation. Participants will gain theoretical insights and hands-on experience with advanced methods, including GANs and large language models (LLMs), to generate synthetic data tailored to their applications.Ìý

The course is designed with the aim of being approachable for beginners but also foundational for intermediate learners who wish to advance in this key and future area. Learners from multidisciplinary backgrounds are encouraged to join and expand their understanding of synthetic data to unlock new possibilities for data-driven applications.Ìý

The course is led by , long-time Senior Researcher and newly appointed Associate Professor at SLATE. The team assisting with organising the course are SLATE PhD Candidates and , and SLATE Researcher .Ìý
