    CALL FOR PAPERS

    ---------------

    BDL 2022

    Workshop on Big Data & Deep Learning in High Performance Computing

    in conjunction with IEEE SBAC-PAD 2022


    Bordeaux, France, November 2-5, 2022

    https://www.dcc.fc.up.pt/bdl2022/

    ----------------------

    Aims and scope of BDL

    ----------------------

    The number of very large data repositories (big data) is increasing in

    a rapid pace. Analysis of such repositories using the traditional

    sequential implementations of Machine Learning (ML) and emerging

    techniques, like deep learning, that model high-level abstractions in

    data by using multiple processing layers, requires expensive

    computational resources and long running times.



    Parallel or distributed computing are possible approaches that can

    make analysis of very large repositories and exploration of high-level

    representations feasible. Taking advantage of a parallel or a

    distributed execution of a ML/statistical system may: i) increase its

    speed; ii) learn hidden representations; iii) search a larger space

    and reach a better solution or; iv) increase the range of applications

    where it can be used (because it can process more data, for

    example). Parallel and distributed computing is therefore of high

    importance to extract knowledge from massive amounts of data and learn

    hidden representations.



    The workshop will be concerned with the exchange of experience among

    academics, researchers and the industry whose work in big data and

    deep learning require high performance computing to achieve

    goals. Participants will present recently developed

    algorithms/systems, on going work and applications taking advantage of

    such parallel or distributed environments.
