  (21698) Computers & Society: Understanding AI: Technology Transforming Society  Alfredo Canziani TR 3:30-4:45PM 194M 208
  

  Course Description:

  This dynamic, team-taught course introduces students to the ideas and technologies that are redefining the future of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Turing Award winner Yann LeCun opens the course with the foundations of modern AI and concludes with a forward-looking exploration of the breakthroughs that lie ahead. Students learn from NYU’s top AI researchers, who guide them through the major subfields of the discipline, including machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision, robotics, and responsible AI. Throughout the course, students discover how AI is transforming industries around the world, with a special focus on innovations in healthcare and medicine, where reliability and human oversight are vital. This course offers an inspiring gateway into one of the most influential technologies of our time. The course spans 14 weeks, organized into 7 thematic modules, each lasting two weeks. Each module includes three lecture sessions (approximately 75 minutes each, delivered live) and one interactive session in the fourth meeting, featuring knowledge assessments (30 min) and hands-on activities (30 min). Weekly discussion sessions and an online forum provide opportunities for engagement with instructors. Assessment is based on weekly quizzes and participatory activities designed for non-technical audiences. canziani@nyu.edu

  (8992) Natural Language Processing  Adam Meyers TR 8:00-9:15AM CIWW 101
  

  Course Description:

  Natural Language Processing (aka Computational Linguistics) is an inter-disciplinary field applying methodology of computer science and linguistics to the processing of natural languages (English, Chinese, Spanish, Japanese, etc.). Typical applications include: information extraction (automatically finding information from text); information retrieval (web searches and other applications involving the automatic selection of "relevant" documents); sentiment analysis (automatic extraction of opinions about a set of issues); and machine translation (automatically translating one natural language to another). Much of the best work in the field combines two methodologies: (1) automatically acquiring statistical information from one set of "training" documents to use as the basis for probabilistically predicting the distribution of similar information in new documents; and (2) using manually encoded linguistic knowledge. For example, many supervised methods of machine learning require: a corpus of text with manually encoded linguistic knowledge, a set of procedures for acquiring statistical patterns from this data and a transducer for predicting these same distinctions in new text. This class will cover linguistic, statistical and computational aspects of this exciting field.

  (8973) Special Topics: Computer Graphics  Gizem Kayar TR 9:30-10:45AM 60 Fifth Ave 150
  

  Course Description:

  This course provides an introduction to the field of Computer Graphics. We will cover the basic mathematical concepts, such as 2D and 3D transformations, study the interaction of light with geometry to derive shading models, and implement rendering algorithms such as raytracing and rasterization. We will investigate how these fundamental components are integrated into current graphics processors and study the corresponding programming APIs.

  (8976) Special Topics: Algorithmic Problem Solving  Joanna Klukowska MW 12:30-1:45PM 60 Fifth Ave 150
  

  Course Description:

  Student must also register for a Recitation section.

  Many of the top firms in the technological and financial sectors are using algorithmic problems as interview questions for assessing candidate skill. In this course we take this idea one step further and use algorithmic problem solving as way to hone programming skills. Students will use the material covered in the data structures and algorithms courses and learn new algorithmic techniques to solve challenging problems quickly. Each week will be devoted to a particular type of algorithm. Weekly problem sets will reinforce the lecture, and require students to implement their solutions in Java or C++.

  Students completing this course will be well prepared to participate in programming competitions such as the ACM Inter-Collegiate Programming Contest, TopCoder, and Google's Code Jam.

  (21315) Special Topics: Computer Networks  Jinkun Geng MW 11:00-12:15PM 60 Fifth Ave C15
  

  Course Description:

  This course will introduce students to computer networks, using today's Internet as an example. Topics covered include socket programming, routing, forwarding, reliable transmission, congestion control, and medium access control. The course will involve a good deal of programming in Python. Familiarity with programming, algorithms, and basic probability is expected. Prerequisites: Computer Systems Organization (CSCI-UA 201), Basic Algorithms (CSCI-UA.0310), and Discrete Mathematics (Math UA 120); or permission of the department.

  (8977) Special Topics: Introduction to Computer Security  Joseph Bonneau MW 2:00-3:15PM CIWW 109
  

  Course Description:

  This course will cover basic principles of computer security and security engineering. To facilitate understanding, this course will consider security both from an attacker's perspective (threat modeling) and the defender's perspective (building and deploying secure systems). Specific topics will include operating system security, network security, web security, and mobile device security. Course projects will focus both on writing secure code and exploiting insecure code.
