RTDL 2017: IEEE Swiss Circuits and Systems “Real-time deep learning” Workshop

Many thanks to all the great presenters of talks, posters and demos and to the lively participants.

Photos of the event are available here.

Reason for workshop: Autonomous driving and flying, mobile devices, domotics, and IoT are rapidly driving the development of both deep learning models and quick, power-efficient deep neural network inference accelerators. At the same time, theory advances are enabling potential incremental, online and reinforcement learning methods that might be computed on devices rather than in the cloud. Come to this workshop to hear about the latest results from these real-time deep neural networks. The workshop includes talks, poster/demo sessions and apero to promote lively discussions and networking in this fast-growing field.

Background: This workshop is one of a series organized by Swiss CAS/ED, including the 2011 “Swiss Image and Vision Sensors” and the 2014 “Memristive Devices and Neuromorphic Applications” workshops, along with several student workshops and a series of IEEE CAS/ED distinguished lectures.

Organizers: IEEE Swiss Chapter of Circuits and Systems and Electron Devices Society
Date: Tuesday 05.12.2017, 9:30 to ~19:00

Place: UZH Irchel Campus, Room Y15 G19; demo, poster and apero area in corridor between Y15 G19 and building Y55. (See map at the bottom of the page.)
