GTC 21: Top 5 NVIDIA AI/DL Technical Sessions

With more than 1,400 sessions including the latest deep learning technologies in conversational AI, recommender systems, computer vision, and video streaming, here is a preview of some of the top AI/DL sessions.

NVIDIA GTC is coming up starting on April 12th with more than 1,400 sessions including the latest deep learning technologies in conversational AI, recommender systems, computer vision, and video streaming. 

Here’s a preview of some of the top AI/DL sessions at GTC. 

  1. Building & Deploying a Custom Conversational AI App with NVIDIA Transfer Learning Toolkit and Jarvis
    Tailoring the deep learning models in a Conversational AI pipeline to the needs of your enterprise is time-consuming. Deployment for a domain-specific application typically requires several cycles of re-training, fine-tuning, and deploying the model until it satisfies the requirements. In this session, we will walk you through the process of customizing ASR and NLP pipelines to build a truly customized production-ready Conversational AI application that is fine-tuned to your domain.

  1. Accelerated ETL, Training and Inference of Recommender Systems on the GPU with Merlin, HugeCTR, NVTabular, and Triton
    Learn how the Merlin framework, consisting of NVTabular for ETL, HugeCTR for training, and Triton for inference serving. Merlin accelerates recommender systems on GPU, speeding up common ETL tasks, training of models, and inference serving by ~10x over commonly used methods. Beyond providing better performance, these libraries are also designed to be easy to use and integrate with existing recommendation pipelines.
