NVIDIA, the AI compute company, has announced its Developer Connect Six-City Program, an educational tour that will provide program attendees workshops and demonstrations of tools designed specifically to meet the challenges big data presents.
The 2-day event in every city will bring together the local ecosystem of AI developers, data scientists, researchers, and academia, to look at AI trends, technology, use cases and India’s role and opportunities in what many are calling the fourth Industrial Revolution.
Starting from November 14th in Hyderabad, this event series will showcase the most vital work in the computing industry today, including deep learning and AI, big data analytics, virtual reality, and much more. This program is part of the Developer engagement program of NVIDIA, which has been very successful in training programmers in AI.
Intrinsic to this, NVIDIA is also conducting its Deep Learning Institute (DLI) workshops in each of the six cities, DLI provides training on the latest techniques for designing, training, and deploying neural networks across a variety of application domains through self-paced online labs and instructor-led workshops.
Vishal Dhupar, Managing Director, NVIDIA – South Asia said, “NVIDIA’s DGX portfolio and its software are the essential instruments for advancing the work of world-class AI research and realizing the promise of this new era of computing. Through the Developer Connect Program, we are empowering developers with skills needed to solve some of the most challenging deep learning problems in the areas of image recognition, text classification and speech modeling.
NVIDIA Deep Learning Institute is an Instructor-led training for developers, data scientists, and researchers. Participants will explore widely used open-source frameworks as well as NVIDIA’s latest GPU-accelerated deep learning platforms. NVIDIA plans to train 100,000 developers this year worldwide in over 20 countries.
The Developer Connect is a free, half-day event that will cover talks and sessions with topics of interest for developers, architects, data scientists and technical managers. It will cover speaker sessions, training labs and demonstrations focusing on a range of technology topics including artificial intelligence, super-computing, and deep learning with speakers from NVIDIA, Google Research, Microsoft and IBM, among other companies.
