The 12th ACM SIGGRAPH Conference and Exhibition on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques in Asia (SIGGRAPH Asia 2019) will be held in Brisbane, Australia at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre (BCEC) from 17 – 20 November 2019. The annual event held in Asia attracts the most respected technical and creative people from all over the world who are excited by research, science, art, animation, gaming, interactivity, education and emerging technologies.

SIGGRAPH Asia 2019’s Gold Sponsor, the NVIDIA Deep Learning Institute (DLI), will be conducting hands-on training workshops over two days on Fundamentals of Deep Learning for Computer Vision and Multiple Data Types. NVIDIA DLI offers hands-on training for developers, data scientists, and researchers looking to solve challenging problems with deep learning and accelerated computing.

This workshop teaches deep learning techniques for a range of computer vision tasks. After an introduction to deep learning, the participants will advance to building and deploying deep learning applications for image classification and object detection, modifying their neural networks to improve their accuracy and performance, and implementing the techniques they’ve learned on a final project. At the end of the workshop, they’ll have access to additional resources to create new deep learning applications on their own. During the workshop, each participant will have dedicated access to a fully configured, GPU-accelerated workstation in the cloud.

Aimed at developers, data scientists, and researchers, NVIDIA will help participants get started with training, optimizing, and deploying neural networks to solve real-world problems across diverse industries such as self-driving cars, healthcare, online services and robotics.
