Machine learning has become one of the driving fields in data analysis. But how to deal with data analysis and limited resources: Computational power, data distribution, energy or memory? The summer school on Resource-aware Machine Learning provides lectures on the latest research in machine learning, typically with the twist on resource consumption and how these can be reduced. This year’s summer school will be held online and free of charge between 31st of August and 4th of September. The events will be a mixture of pre-recorded and live sessions, including a dedicated space for presenting PhD/PostDoc research and a hackathon featuring real world ML tasks.
A selection of course topics: Deep Learning, Graph Neural Networks, Large Models on Small Devices, Power Consumption of ML, Deep generative modeling, Memory challenges in DNN...

During registration you may express your interest in joining the hackathon and/or presenting at the students’ corner.
Hackathon - Positioning prediction and robot control
As a practical example to leverage your ML skills we host a challenge on indoor location prediction based on floor-integrated sensor data. Real world data is gathered in a warehouse scenario, where free roaming robots perform transportation of goods. Your first task will be to use sensor data (vibration, magnetic fields…) with position ground truth to build a position prediction. The best teams will get the chance for live control of the robots on the final day of the summer school. The winner will be invited for research cooperations to Dortmund.

Students’ Corner - Share and discuss your work
The summer school will be accompanied by an exchange platform for participants, the Students' Corner, which will allow them to network and share their research. During the registration you may express your interest in participation at the student’s corner and we will keep you updated.

The summer school is organised by the competence center for Machine Learning Rhine-Ruhr, ML2R, the collaborative research center SFB 876 and the artificial intelligence group at TU Dortmund University.
