Deep Learning school @ Universite Cote d’Azur (France)

March 11th, 2025 Daniela Lopez de Luise
Registration is now open for the 7th Deep Learning School @UniCA. We have listened your recommendations by spreading the school over 2 weeks between June 23 and July 4: each week is organized with 2 days of tutorials on Mondays and Tuesdays, followed by 3 days of Master classes (with their dedicated labs).

This year's Master classes will be taught by prestigious AI Professors Stuart Russell (UC Berkley), Mihaela Van der Schaar (University of Cambridge), Dan Jurafsky (Stanford University), Yulan He (King's College London), Zeynep Akata (Technical University of Munich), with more to come.

Huggingface lead engineers, responsible for the Smol LM project and the recently published Ultra-Scale Playbook will detail all the algorithms and techniques involved to efficiently train LLMs.

They will address some of the most important topics of the moment: LLMs, Foundation models for vision and text, RLHF techniques, Ethical and equity issues around LLMs, Data-Centric AI for health…

During the 4 days of tutorials, we will teach you all the internal mechanisms des LLMs and supervise you in implementing your own LLM from Scratch.

Whether you work in engineering, research, are a deep learning specialist or are simply looking to familiarize yourself with these crucial methods at the heart of modern AI, this program is designed for you!
