<span style="">Deep learning is widely used for many artificial intelligence (AI) applications including computer vision, speech recognition, robotics, etc. While deep learning delivers state-of-the-art accuracy on many AI tasks, it demands high computational
complexity. Accordingly, designing efficient hardware systems to support deep learning is an important step towards enabling its wide deployment, particularly for embedded applications such as mobile, Internet of Things (IOT), and drones.<br style="">
<br style="">
During the workshop, Professor Sze will provide an overview of recent advances towards enabling the efficient processing of deep learning. She will discuss various hardware platforms and architectures that support deep learning, and highlight key trends.</span></p>

<span style="">Currently an associate at Harvard’s Weatherhead Center for International Affairs, Hicks has worked extensively on international conflict resolution in the Middle East, Sri Lanka, Columbia, Cuba, and Northern Ireland (with Archbishop Desmond Tutu).
In her current work, she and has found that although dignity is our highest common denominator and plays a critical role in the well-being and health of a workplace culture, most of us – including leaders – know very little about it. Often confused with the
concept of “respect,” dignity goes much deeper, and reflects our inherent value and worth. Everyone wants to be treated in a way that shows they matter. Without a working knowledge of dignity, leaders unknowingly fail to honor it in others and unintentionally
cause emotional pain, conflict, and distrust – which can ultimately create a toxic work environment.</span></p>

<font color="#2E2E2E">Science training rarely includes the skills needed to effectively manage an academic lab or nonacademic work group. Talented managers get more done in any work place, and not all science trainees have a good role model for this skill.
Just like doing research—effective management is something you can learn and at which you can excel. This talk is designed to give you an introduction to the skills you can develop to be a good manager. Useful resources and tools provided for future training.
