LuxCarta, a leading provider of geospatial products, is pleased to offer a Research and

Application Workshop aimed at training in Deep Learning for Computer Vision Applications,
with a special focus on geospatial use cases. The workshop targets engineers and graduate
students.

You will learn:

 Fundamentals of machine learning and deep learning concepts
 Design of deep neural networks for computer vision applications
 Implementation of deep learning architectures using Tensorflow for common vision
applications, such as image classification and segmentation
 Train and deploy your models to solve real-world problems, with a case study of an
actual LuxCarta industrial application
Prerequisites: Technical background and programming skills. Basic understanding of
machine learning concepts is an advantage.
Registration: Deadline for registration is May 17, 2019. Registration fee: 50 TND for
students, 100 TND for salaried employees. For registration, a CV of the participant candidate
must be sent to dltunis19@luxcarta.com Space is limited. Register today.
