<strong>SCOPE:</strong>
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
DeepLearn 2022 Winter will be a research training event with a global scope aiming at updating participants on the most recent advances in the critical and fast developing area of deep learning. Previous events were held in Bilbao, Genova, Warsaw and Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
Deep learning is a branch of artificial intelligence covering a spectrum of current exciting research and industrial innovation that provides more efficient algorithms to deal with large-scale data in a huge variety of different environments: computer vision, neurosciences, speech recognition, language processing, human-computer interaction, drug discovery, biomedical informatics, image analysis, recommender systems, advertising, fraud detection, robotics, games, etc. etc. Renowned academics and industry pioneers will lecture and share their views with the audience.
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
Most deep learning subareas will be displayed, and main challenges identified through 22 four-hour and a half courses and 3 keynote lectures, which will tackle the most active and promising topics. The organizers are convinced that outstanding speakers will attract the brightest and most motivated students. Face to face interaction and networking will be main components of the event.
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
An open session will give participants the opportunity to present their own work in progress in 5 minutes. Moreover, there will be two special sessions with industrial and recruitment profiles.
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>

<div>
<strong>ADDRESSED TO:</strong>
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>
Graduate students, postgraduate students and industry practitioners will be typical profiles of participants. However, there are no formal pre-requisites for attendance in terms of academic degrees, so people less or more advanced in their career will be welcome as well. Since there will be a variety of levels, specific knowledge background may be assumed for some of the courses. Overall, DeepLearn 2022 Winter is addressed to students, researchers and practitioners who want to keep themselves updated about recent developments and future trends. All will surely find it fruitful to listen to and discuss with major researchers, industry leaders and innovators.
