TOMSK, Jun 14 – RIA
Tomsk. Tomsk State University (TSU) together with local
IT-company Rubius opened the first in Tomsk course on machine learning; its
graduates will be able to create and train any neural networks, the press
service of the university said on Thursday.
It's specified,
that on the course "Machine Learning: top specialty in a month" were
registered fifty of Tomsk citizens, from them into the first group entered only
18. From applicants were required knowledge of the higher mathematics and
ability to program on Python – all at the initial level.
"Information
technology is rapidly gaining popularity in Tomsk, and the main area that is
now in demand in the wave of high-profile projects, – is machine learning.
Until then, there was no machine training course in Tomsk that would be
conducted by industrial company and university. This is a successful symbiosis,
which, I hope, will lead to positive results", – the leading technical

Specialists from
Rubius IT-company will tell about how to transfer data into an understandable
for machine format and filter them, will teach to choose the appropriate tools

#EdCrunch Tomsk conference, dedicated to the newest educational technologies
and timed to the 140th anniversary of TSU, there was a presentation of a
large-scale digital project – "Virtual University 4.0".
Within the
framework of this project will be created an open IT-platform for the
development of educational courses. Students will be able to work with
interactive 3D-models and work out the mechanics of important processes, and
teachers – to create interactive courses and assignments. Intensive course in
machine learning became another form of cooperation.
