Speaker: Xiangnan Xu

Title: Introduction to Deep Learning

Abstract: Deep learning has achieved tremendous success in recent years including 
classification, data generation and reinforcement learning. In this talk, we will 
introduce some basic ideas of deep learning and some network structures that are 
commonly used in deep learning. Also, we will show a network which converts photos 
from real world to animation style image using CycleGAN. Finally, if time permits, 
we will discuss some combination of deep learning with bioinformatics.
