IIT Mandi, through its iHub and HCI Foundation, has invited applications from working professionals as well as students for a 6-day weekend online course deep learning. The course is aimed at executives and working professionals, mostly software engineers and executives, willing to work in the area of artificial intelligence and machine learning. Theory sessions will be conducted from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm and lab sessions from 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm every weekend and an assessment will be done at the end of the workshop on the basis of which certificates will be provided.
Although the course can be beneficial for professionals, final year students who are pursuing undergraduate, masters or PhD, and even faculty members have been encouraged to apply. Participants are required to have prerequisite knowledge of linear algebra, python, machine learning and probability theory. Candidates will be admitted into the course on a first come first serve basis.
