Announcement: This Saturday at The Science Circle - "The Role of the Greeks in Science and Math" and "Deep Learning"

 

"The Role of the Greeks in Science and Math Concept"

Saturday January 8

10 AM to 11 AM SL time

The ancient Greeks were instrumental in developing fundamental concepts in a wide range of science and math disciplines such as Palaeontology, Geometry, Medicine, Astronomy, and Physics. I am by no means an expert on this topic but will present what I know in voice and participants are free to share their knowledge on this topic in local chat.

"Deep Learning"

Saturday January 8

9 PM to 10 PM SL time

In 2021 I had the opportunity to give a presentation on computer vision and bias in artificial intelligence. I touched on a subset of AI methods termed “Deep learning”. In this presentation I hope to discuss the principles and utility of these methods, share some of my experiences in learning about and applying them and tell you why I think it’s super cool that computers can mimic processes in our brains to process information.
