This course provides an overview of machine learning in the age of big data, cloud computing, and our data-saturated society. Business leaders will learn of the various types of machine learning, and how they can be used with a variety of enterprise data holdings and publicly available data to develop deeper insights in the business environment; understand basic computational intelligence paradigms, and how machine learning is integral to the field; learn the technical vocabulary and high-level concepts of machine learning in a manner that demystifies the topic and enables them to ask the right questions on the deployment of machine learning into business operations. Speaker: Grant Scott, Assistant Professor in the Center for Geospatial Intelligence (CGI) and the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Department, University of Missouri Co-sponsored by: Continuing Education Committee of the Educational Activities Board of the IEEE Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/365740

Set Sail with IEEE-USA! Join us 16-20 October 2023 aboard Royal Caribbean’s Independence of the Seas for a 4-night cruise from sunny Orlando, Florida (Port Canaveral), to the tropical beauty of the Bahamas, as IEEE-USA celebrates 50 years of service to U.S. IEEE members. Our celebration cruise will feature exclusive events, food and live entertainment, nightly group dining, four informative, fast-paced and insightful “Lightning Sessions” on a variety of interesting topics, and scheduled meet-ups, but you’ll also have time to enjoy everything this remarkable ship has to offer. We’ll be cruising in style from Port Canaveral to stops in Nassau and CocoCay, before concluding our cruise back in Port Canaveral.

AI has been used almost everywhere. Video analytics is the most commonly used AI. In the era of Internet of Video Things (IoVT), many cameras collect a massive amount of visual data to be analyzed by AI. While there are still challenges in the algorithms, especially after the systems are deployed, e.g., accuracy, energy efficiency, processing speed, we can further use AI to design efficient IoVT systems at the development time. This talk will discuss the following two topics: - Deployment-time AI for Image/Video Processors and Codec: Here, AI is utilized to perform specific system functions, such as video analysis and object detection/recognition, after the hardware system has been designed. - Development-time AI for Image/Video Processors and Codec: In this context, AI is employed to enhance the design. For example, EDA tools and compilers use AI to generate better designs. Given the numerous design trade-offs in image/video processing and compression, incorporating AI during the development phase (rather than relying solely on human-crafted heuristics) can result in more effective hardware system designs.
