Description: Deep learning is a rapidly growing segment of artificial intelligence. It is increasingly used to deliver near-human level accuracy for image classification, voice recognition, natural language processing, sentiment analysis, recommendation engines, and more. Applications areas include facial recognition, scene detection, advanced medical and pharmaceutical research, and autonomous, self-driving vehicles. This talk focuses on the role GPUs play in accelerating all aspects of deep learning and where NVIDIA technologies play a key role in academia, supercomputing and industry.
