Deep Learning Demystified

As part of IDEAS 2020, the NVIDIA Deep Learning Institute (DLI) is offering a hands-on deep learning workshop on Wednesday, April 29, 2020 from 1:00-4:00 pm in IOEC 217. Registration is free, but space is limited to verifiable academic students, staff, and researchers.

NVIDIA DLI offers hands-on training for developers, data scientists, and researchers looking to solve challenging problems with deep learning and accelerated computing.

In this hands-on workshop, you will learn the basics of deep learning by training and deploying neural networks. You will:

  • Implement common deep learning workflows such as Image Classification and Object Detection.
  • Experiment with data, training parameters, network structure, and other strategies to increase performance and capability.
  • Deploy your networks to start solving real-world problems.On completion of this course, you will be able to start solving your own problems with deep learning.

Prerequisites:

Familiarity with the basic programming fundamentals such as functions and variables.

Instructor:

Dr. Manal Jalloul is a Lecturer in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department. She is also a Certified Trainer and University Ambassador at the NVIDIA Deep Learning Institute. Email: mj37@aub.edu.lb

The acronym, IDEAS, was developed to reflect the diversity of the modules. Each letter represents a malleable set of words representing different facets of the conference.
