LMS Invited Lectures on the Mathematics of Deep Learning

Dear colleagues,

Thanks for joining our CWI event where we watch the “Lectures on the Mathematics of Deep Learning” (LMS) workshop together. I am looking forward to discussing the talks with you all. The LMS workshop will be from Monday 28th of February untill Friday the 4th of March. We have rooms available with a beamer on all days. The schedule at the CWI will be as follows:

28-02: room L017, time 14:00 – 17:00
        14:00 – 15:15   Introduction to Deep Neural Networks

        Closing remarks

PLEASE NOTE: It seems unlikely that people will be able to join our CWI event virtually given how LMS will be organized. This means that you will probably have to join physically at the CWI for those talks you want to follow. This may be somewhat difficult with the work restrictions still in place (we don’t know what the situation will be during LMS). Therefore, please try to arrange physical attendance for those lectures you definitely want to see. If this is somehow difficult given office spaces, please let me know.

Since the programme is quite extensive, you may not want to follow every lecture. However, please try to join as many as possible to enable interesting discussion in the group afterwards.  The full programme can also be found here and some more information can be found here.
