PHYS-467: Machine learning for physicistsMachine learning and data analysis are becoming increasingly central in sciences including physics. In this course, fundamental principles and methods of machine learning will be introduced and practised. ...
MATH-437: Calculus of variationsIntroduction to classical Calculus of Variations and a selection of modern techniques. The Calculus of Variations aims at showing the existence of minimisers (or critical points) of functionals that naturally appear in mathematics and physics (Dirichlet en ...
COM-406: Foundations of Data ScienceWe discuss a set of topics that are important for the understanding of modern data science but that are typically not taught in an introductory ML course. In particular we discuss fundamental ideas and techniques that come from probability, information the ...
MATH-451: Numerical approximation of PDEsThe course is about the derivation, theoretical analysis and implementation of the finite element method for the numerical approximation of partial differential equations in one and two space dimensions. ...
PHYS-216: Mathematical methods (for SPH)Ce cours est un complément aux cours d'analyse et d'algèbre linéaire qui apporte des méthodes et des techniques mathématiques supplémentaires requises pour les cours de physique de 3e année, notamment l'électrodynamique et la mécanique quantique. ...
AR-489: Urban sociologyCe cours a pour objectif de familiariser les étudiants à la sociologie urbaine à partir du prisme du logement. Il permet de naviguer entre les concepts, outils et méthodes qu'elle propose pour penser l'évolution concomitante des modes de vie et de l'organi ...
CS-308: Introduction to quantum computationThe course introduces the paradigm of quantum computating in an axiomatic way. We introduce the notions of quantum bits, gates, and circuits. We introduce themost important quantum algorithms. We also touch upon error-correcting codes. This course is indep ...
AR-201(an): Studio BA3 (Truwant et Rodet)Le projet de transformation considère les sites existants comme des ressources pour réinventer nos manières d'habiter. À Renens, les étudiants exploreront la rénovation pour concevoir de nouvelles formes de vie, créant des typologies domestiques issues des ...
PHYS-314: Quantum physics IIThe aim of this course is to familiarize the student with the concepts, methods and consequences of quantum physics. ...
ME-372: Finite element methodL'étudiant acquiert une initiation théorique à la méthode des éléments finis qui constitue la technique la plus courante pour la résolution de problèmes elliptiques en mécanique. Il apprend à appliquer cette méthode à des cas simples et à l'exploiter pour ...
MATH-302: Functional analysis IConcepts de base de l'analyse fonctionnelle linéaire: opérateurs bornés, opérateurs compacts, théorie spectrale pour les opérateurs symétriques et compacts, le théorème de Hahn-Banach, les théorèmes de l'application ouverte et du graphe fermé. ...
MATH-431: Theory of stochastic calculusIntroduction to the mathematical theory of stochastic calculus: construction of the Ito stochastic integral, proof of the Ito formula, introduction to stochastic differential equations, Girsanov's theorem and the Feynman-Kac formula, the martingale represe ...
COM-309: Introduction to quantum information processingInformation is processed in physical devices. In the quantum regime the concept of classical bit is replaced by the quantum bit. We introduce quantum principles, and then quantum communications, key distribution, quantum entropy, and spin dynamics. No prio ...
PHYS-431: Quantum field theory IThe goal of the course is to introduce relativistic quantum field theory as the conceptual and mathematical framework describing fundamental interactions. ...
