DETAILED AGENDA:

TALK #1
Speakers: Marcel Horstmann, Deep Learning Researcher and Laurent Decamp, Deep Learning Engineer at Tractable

Title: Using TensorFlow to bring AI to the real world

Abstract: The talk will review the performance impact of collocating convolutional neural networks on a single GPU device and discuss how to run several different deep learning models at scale in a production system.

Speakers Bio:

• Marcel is Deep Learning Researcher at Tractable with a background in research on quantum optics, veteran deep learning hacker, applied deep learning to both solar power prediction and energy efficiency. MSs in Physics.

• Laurent is Deep Learning Engineer at Tractable with Artificial Intelligence MSc (Distinction) from the University of Edinburgh. Worked on a research project on real-time image-based localisation in large-scale outdoor environments.

TALK #2
Speaker: Oliver Gindele, Data Scientist at Datatonic

Title: Recommender systems with TensorFlow

Abstract: Recommender systems are widely used by e-commerce and services companies worldwide to provide the most relevant items to the user. Many different algorithm and models exist to tackle the problem of finding the best product in a huge library of items for every user. In this talk, Oliver explains how some of these models can be implemented in TensorFlow, starting from a collaborative filtering approach and extending that to deep recommender systems.

Speaker Bio:

Oliver is a Data Scientist at Datatonic with a background in computational physics and high performance computing. He is a machine learning practitioner who recently started exploring the world of deep learning.
