ICCV 2019 Tutorial: Everything You Need to Know to Reproduce SOTA Deep Learning Models

Time: Sunday, October 27, 2019. Half Day - AM (0800-1215)
Location: Auditorium, [COEX Convention Center](https://goo.gl/maps/VKDgLyYf8NDC1e4E6)

Abstract

Deep Learning has become the de facto standard algorithm in computer vision. There are a surge amount of approaches being proposed every year for different tasks. Reproducing the complete system in every single detail can be problematic and time-consuming, especially for the beginners. Existing open-source implementations are typically not well-maintained and the code can be easily broken by the rapid updates of the deep learning frameworks. In this tutorial, we will walk through the technical details of the state-of-the-art (SOTA) algorithms in major computer vision tasks, and we also provide the code implementations and hands-on tutorials to reproduce the large-scale training in this tutorial.

Q&A

Q1: How do I setup the environments for this tutorial?

A1: There will be all-in-one AWS SageMaker notebooks available for all local attendees, you need to bring your laptop and have a working email to access the notebooks.

Q2: How do I setup the environment in SageMaker after this tutorial?

A2: You can use lifetime-config to create sagemaker notebook instance using this lifetime-config. Make sure you have more than 30G disk space for the new notebook instance.
