Tutorial 3 - Data informatics-driven machine intelligence for human-oriented computing: From deep learning-based video processing to system optimization

Tutorial Session Presented by

Haijun Zhang and Tommy W. S. Chow

Abstract

The proposed tutorial is aimed at introducing the most important machine learning techniques that are particular useful to industrial informatics engineers and researchers. The techniques that will be covered in the tutorial are the state-of–the-art and are still ongoing hot research topics. This tutorial is designed in a way to bridge the areas of industrial informatics and machine learning.
