GPU Bootcamp

The Fundación Pública Galega Centro Tecnolóxico de Supercomputación de Galicia (CESGA) and NVIDIA are hosting a GPU Bootcamp on September 18th-19th, 2023. Application Deadline: August 28th, 2023.

During this online Bootcamp, participants will learn how to apply AI tools, techniques, and algorithms to real-life problems. You’ll study the key concepts of Deep Neural Networks, how to build Deep Learning models, and how to measure and improve the accuracy of your models. You’ll also learn essential data preprocessing techniques to ensure a robust machine learning pipeline. This online Bootcamp is a hands-on learning experience where you’ll be guided by step-by-step instructions with mentors on hand to help throughout the process.

This bootcamp will be hosted virtually in the Central European Summer Time Zone. All communication will be done through Zoom, Slack, and email.
