The objective of this course is to introduce and clarify the core principles of deep learning behind generative AI, enabling learners to recognise key neural components, compare major architectures (CNNs, RNNs, Transformers), and build a simple generative model. Learners will also reflect on implementation choices and evaluate ethical risks, developing responsible practice and a solid foundation for advanced topics such as fine-tuning and prompt design.

Course overview

The course provides a theoretical and practical material on models and methods used for text, image and video generation. Learners will delve into the specifics of deep learning models with the focus on conditional and unconditional image generation (GAN, CycleGAN, score-based models, etc.), as well as sequence generation (RNN, LSTM, transformers, etc.). By analyzing examples and implementing tasks, students will gain knowledge and practical skills on multimodal models, text, image, and video generation and evaluation.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • LO1: Explain the concepts of deep learning models used for text, image, and video generation.
  • LO2: Use and evaluate the models for text generation.
  • LO3: Use and evaluate the models for image and video generation.
