In addition to delivering expert system, algorithm, hardware and software technical perspectives in the Technical Insights track, this year's Embedded Vision Summit adds two new presentation tracks, tailored for specific audiences. The Business Insights Track is ideal for business executives, marketers, analysts, and investors seeking an understanding of the commercial computer vision landscape. Presented by leading industry innovators, entrepreneurs, executives and analysts, its focus is on business opportunities and drivers, with an emphasis on end products, markets, and and key trends.
Here are a few examples:
- In the keynote "Large-Scale Deep Learning for Building Intelligent Computer Systems," Jeff Dean, Senior Fellow at Google Research, will discuss how his company has built multiple generations of large-scale computer systems for training neural networks, and then deployed this technology in numerous Google products.
- In "How Deep Learning Is Enabling Computer Vision Markets," Bruce Daley, Principal Analyst at Tractica, will highlight the market factors, technology issues, use cases, and industry ecosystem that is developing around the use of deep learning for computer vision. In preparation, see Tractica's just-published white paper "Deep Learning Use Cases for Computer Vision" (Alliance website registration required for download).
- And In "The Road Ahead for Neural Networks: Five Likely Surprises," Cadence CTO Chris Rowen will examine the fundamental capabilities and limitations of neural network computing, especially for real-time and embedded systems, and will paint a picture of how it will likely evolve over the next decade. As a preview, see a recent interview with Rowen on the topic.
The Embedded Vision Summit, an educational forum for product creators interested in incorporating visual intelligence into electronic systems and software, takes place in Santa Clara, California May 2-4, 2016.
