Learn about IBM PowerAI as a platform for Deep Learning

IBM PowerAI Meetup

Invest half a day together with IBM, NVIDIA and Elinar and learn about Deep Learning and IBM PowerAI. Listen to Elinar Oy on how they are using Deep Learning as part of their daily business. Explore the benefits of using open source frameworks like TensorFlow and Caffe together with IBM PowerAI tools to enable a complete user-friendly Deep Learning system. Everything running on IBM's state-of-the-art platform based on Power CPU's and NVIDIA GPU's. The seminar is targeted people with an interest in Deep Learning, whether that interest is fueled by business or technical reasons. Our focus is more on what Deep Learning is and what you can do with it more than a detailed walkthrough of TensorFlow, Python, cuBLAS and the like.
