Johns Hopkins University 3 credits Computer Science
Recent experimental advances enable the measurement of DNA, RNA and other diverse molecular modalities inside individual cells at an unprecedented scale and resolution. Computational and machine learning (ML) methods are essential for analyzing and interpreting these high-dimensional, single-cell genomics datasets. This course introduces computational/ML frameworks that are often used to analyze modern single-cell and spatial datasets. Topics include but are not limited to: matrix factorization; autoencoders and contrastive learning; graphs and manifold learning; graph neural networks; computational optimal transport (OT); Gromov-Wasserstein and dynamic OT. Expected course background in python programming, probability, linear algebra, and multi-variable calculus. A machine learning/data science course is strongly recommended. No biology background is necessary. Prerequisite(s): Students can only earn credit for EN.601.439 OR EN.601.639.;(EN.553.310 or EN.553.311 or EN.553.420 or EN.553.421) and (AS.110.201 OR AS.110.212 OR EN.553.291 OR EN.553.295) and (AS.110.202 OR AS.110.211)
