May20-24, 2019 –Lecce, Italy Call for participation · Piazza Duomo, Lecce Otranto. Title:...

The technical focus of this summer school is on fundamentals

and algorithmic advances for learning from large volumes of

data, with emphasis on network (i.e., graph) data. Topics

covered go all the way from learning graph representations of

complex signals, to tensor decompositions of multi-aspect data

and learning efficient signal representations via state-of-the-art

deep learning architectures. To better illustrate the concepts

taught, a gamut of diverse applications will be considered,

including communication, social, brain, and power networks,

Internet of Things technologies, and artificial intelligence.

Fundamentals• Statistical analysis of network data

• Tensor methods for signal processing and machine learning

• Distributed optimization for large-scale analytics

• Graph signal processing

• Inference of graph topologies and network processes

• Representation learning and deep reinforcement learning

• Graph convolutional neural networks

Applications• Social networks

• Internet of things

• Brain networks and neuroimaging

• Artificial intelligence

• Smart grid analytics

• Resource allocation for 5G networks

IEEE-SPS / EURASIP Summer School

T

May 20-24, 2019 – Lecce, Italy

he 2019 IEEE-SPS / EURASIP Summer School on

“Network- and Data-driven Learning: Fundamentals

and Applications,” will take place in Lecce, Italy. It will

bring together researchers to share exciting advances

in network and data sciences theory and applications.

The event will host students interested in signal processing,

offering them opportunities to network with world-renowned

professors and industry researchers as well as to engage in

hands-on tutorials in signal processing and machine

learning. In addition to the beautiful ambiance offered by

“The Florence of the South of Italy,” attendants will benefit

from a stimulating environment to learn about the latest

advances in an exciting field. Students will have the

possibility to present their current research work in a poster

session.
