Deep Learning methods are currently the state-of-the-art in many image-related problems. This 6-hour tutorial explores Deep Learning for Robotics Image Perception in vector processors through a hands-on approach. Participants will have the opportunity to apply deep neural networks (DNNs) to image classification problems through a simplified set of tools, frameworks and data pipelines commonly used to train and deploy DNN in customised GPUs.
This is a hands-on tutorial. You should bring your own laptop to develop the GPU exercises during the course. Also, you should register to this tutorial by clicking in the button REGISTER above.

Undergraduate and graduate students, university lecturers and researchers interested in the field of deep learning for robotic image perception. Level: Elementary (70%) up to Intermediate (30%) Skills: Basics of programming. No previous experience is required in any of the machine learning tools and libraries explored in this tutorial: Caffe, TensorFlow, DIGITS e Python Jupyter Notebook.
The expected outcome for each participant is that they gather an understanding of the fundamentals of deep learning in parallel processors (e.g. GPUs):
* To explore deep machine learning in vector processors in the cloud and embedded in real-world applications;
* To implement a pipeline of commonly used deep learning tasks;
* To experiment with datasets, fine-tune neural net training parameters, structure the inner layers of a network, and understand other strategies to improve the performance of a
neural network;
*To integrate and deploy neural nets in the robotic field in order to solve real-world problems;
*To investigate the use of deep learning to deal with robotics challenges.
*Vector Processors and DSAs
