12th – 16th June 2023, Goa
The 4th Indian Workshop on Applied Deep Learning, hosted at Birla Institute of Technology and Science Pilani, K K Birla Goa campus from June 12-16, 2023, was organized jointly by BITS Pilani, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Mandi and ICAR-Indian Agricultural Statistics Research Institute (ICAR-IASRI) in a blended learning format.
Professor Phalguni Gupta, Vice Chancellor, GLA University and Dr. Rajender Parsad Director ICAR-IASRI, New Delhi expressed their views about the importance of IWADL workshop and National Agricultural Research and Education Sysyem-Blended Learning Platform (NARES BLP) during the inaugural session.
NARES-BLP enabled researchers, experts, and enthusiasts in the field of deep learning to explore and learn the subject in a cohesive environment.
Prominent researchers from various institutions and companies, including IIT Mandi, IIT Delhi, IIT Kharagpur, International Institute of Information Technology (IIIT) Hyderabad, BITS Pilani, Harman DTS, Fujitsu, and Sahaj AI focuses on the application of deep learning architectures such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), Autoencoders, Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), Transformers, Diffusion models, and more. These architectures have shown great potential in addressing a wide range of problems in diverse domains such as agriculture, healthcare, finance, transportation, education, manufacturing, and entertainment.
Dr. Suman Kundu, Director BITS Pilani, K K Birka Campus was the chief guest during the valedictory session. He emphasized greater collaboration among the participating institutions.
