Geocomputation and Machine Learning for environmental applications

I am participating as a trainer for the GeoComp & ML 2026 course organized by Spatial Ecology. The course covers geocomputation and machine learning for environmental applications.

My lectures focus on Machine Learning and include the following topics:

• Lecture 11 (Oct 27, 2026): Machine Learning Introduction, Support Vector Machine
• Lecture 12 (Oct 29, 2026): Machine Learning - Perceptron
• Lecture 13 (Nov 3, 2026): Machine Learning - Perceptron
• Lecture 14 (Nov 5, 2026): Machine Learning - Architecture of Neural Networks
• Lecture 15 (Nov 10, 2026): Machine Learning - Capacity, Overfitting, Underfitting - Convolutional Neural Networks
• Lecture 16 (Nov 12, 2026): Machine Learning - Papers discussion

The course also features an in-person coding hackathon in Matera, Italy from November 23-27, 2026.

More information about the course can be found on the official course page.
