At a glance
“A Journey through Deep Learning” is an intensive school that comprehensively explores Deep Learning principles and applications. This program combines methodological and practical insights into modern frameworks and architectures”.
Key features include:
• Fundamental principles of DL, including dense and convolutional networks.
• Advanced topics like transformers, and generative models.
• Exploration of practical challenges such as dataset bias and data scarcity.
• Poster sessions to foster collaboration and discussions.
Participants will also work on a group project to consolidate their learning and will be evaluated based on this final project.
