03-IMVA-ACSS Kurs
Credit points: 6
Main focus: AI, DMI
Description:
The aim of this course is to create an understanding of the major aspects of sports applications. The course is split into two parts: the first half has a classic lecture/tutorial style, whereas the second half will focus on the creation of individual sports applications.
The lectures will explain the necessary fundamentals, such as sensor technology, user feedback, and the conduction of empirical studies, along with a number of inspiring examples.
In the project part, own prototypes for sports applications are developed in small groups. The exact application as well as the technical implementation approach can be chosen freely. The final graded outcome of the course will be a small sports application about which a presentation has to be held and a documentation in a scientific paper style has to be written.
The course will be held in English.

Actionable Knowledge Representation
IBVP-AKR
Credit points: 6
Description:
This course deals with the idea of bringing knowledge into applications to support users in daily life. It therefore covers topics on how knowledge can be represented to be machine-understandable, how knowledge can be acquired from different sources (including Web scraping) and how such different knowledge chunks can be linked. It will further discuss how to reason about knowledge and how different agents like websites, AR applications or robots can use knowledge to support users in their daily life. All exercises will be available in platform-independent jupyter notebooks based on python and have low software requirements.
The course will be held in English.
