The National School of Statistical Sciences (ENCE/IBGE) will open pre-registration on August 28 for the Fundamental Aspects of Neural Networks and Computational Intelligence course, class of 2025. The course is free and aims at presenting how neural networks and other modern techniques can learn, recognize patterns and solve daily problems.
Interested parties should access the website https://ence.ibge.gov.br/index.php/trilhas/cdbdia, which provides more information about the course. The link to the pre-registration form will be made available for four days, from 9 am on August 28 (Thursday) until 9 am on September 1 (Monday).
There are 60 places to be filled, which will be distributed by Major Region, by sex and by internal (IBGE) and external audiences. The order of pre-registration is one of the tiebreaker criteria for selection. College degree is required. Activities include reading scientific articles and supplementary material on th topic.
With a workload of 45 hours, the course will begin on October 14 and last for nine weeks, until December 11. It includes synchronous remote activities (classes, seminars and debates) on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 10 am to 12 pm, and asynchronous activities (reading and research). Professor Bruno Erbisti Garcia (ENCE/IBGE) is responsible fr the course.
Learning paths
The course Fundamental Aspecto of Neural Networks and Computational Intelligence is part of the Data Science, Big Data and Artificial Intelligence (CDBDIA) learning path, a project by ENCE/IBGE that offers courses on this topic. Five courses have already been offered: Introduction to Data Science, Artificial Intelligence in Public Policy, Big Data and Public Statistics, Privacy Preservation in Data Science and Computatonal Intelligence. Other courses and paths are being developed and will be launched soon.
