KnuEdge and UC San Diego Announce 2017 Dates/Details for New Academic Workshop on Heterogeneous Neural Networks
KnuEdge and Calit2 Workshop to Focus on Development of Next-Generation Computing Architectures to Power Machine Learning
(firmenpresse) - SAN DIEGO, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 10/13/16 -- ™, delivering LambdaFabric neural computing technology that accelerates machine learning and signal processing, in partnership with the , today released additional details about its first-ever workshop on Heterogeneous Neural Networks (HNNs), to be held April 27-28, 2017 at UC San Diego. HNNs, as well as sparse matrix algorithms, hold the promise of delivering a step-function increase in performance for machine learning workloads versus the current dense matrix approach. As machine learning evolves, it is crucial to inspire a new generation of technologists to advance the status quo and develop new approaches. At the inaugural workshop, industry leaders will discuss the HNN algorithms at the forefront of this exciting new paradigm of performance and efficiency.
"We are still in the early days, but the goal is clear: to enable fundamental advancements in the way humans interact with machines," said Dan Goldin, CEO of KnuEdge. "We are in the Wild West of machine learning where new approaches and technologies are proliferating, and there is limited information on the best paths. This workshop will focus on educating and inspiring the new generation of technologists to think and act differently toward new computing frameworks. And I cannot wait to see what they can do."

The California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology (Calit2) founded in 2000 as one of four Gray Davis Institutes for Science and Innovation, with research buildings on both the UC San Diego and UC Irvine campuses. The Qualcomm Institute (QI) is the UC San Diego division of Calit2, housed in Atkinson Hall. Calit2''s QI brings together more than 350 UC San Diego affiliated faculty members, nearly 120 technical and professional staff as well as hundreds of student workers, undergraduate scholars, graduate fellows, postdoctoral researchers, project and research scientists. The institute has also worked closely with more than 200 industry partners to date. The institute''s strategic vision stresses collaborative, interdisciplinary research in four core areas to benefit society: culture, energy, the environment, and health. QI also provides advanced facilities for using enabling technologies -- wireless communications, photonics, cyberinfrastructure, and nano-MEMS. In addition, the institute plays a leadership role in the development of new institutes and research centers for the UC San Diego campus, on current topics ranging from robotics and the brain to design, cyber-archaeology and healthy aging.
