Topic: Recent Advances in Machine Learning and Their Application to Networking
Description: The recent progress of Machine Learning and Deep Learning in
particular has been nothing short of spectacular. Machine learning applications
now span wide variety of application spaces including perceptural tasks such as
image search, object and scene recognition and captioning, voice and natural
language recognition and generation, self-driving cars and automated assistants
such as Siri, as well as various engineering, financial, medical and scientific
applications.
More generally, cutting-edge startups, established technology companies and
Universities are increasingly finding new, novel, and exciting ways to apply
powerful machine learning tools such as neural networks to new and existing
problems in many different industries.
The network domain, however, has been virtually untouched by all of this
activity. This talk will outline recent advanced in Machine Learning with an
eye towards network applications. In addition, we outlines a few "Machine
Learning for DevOps" applications which are focused on next generation network
automation.
