About MUST Deep Learning
MUST Deep Learning is a research group within the Faculty of Engineering at NWU. We perform basic and applied research in machine learning, with an emphasis on the theory and application of deep learning. Our theoretical work focuses on some of the central open questions related to how these models learn and why they perform so well. Our…http://engineering.nwu.ac.za/must-deep-learning/background
Background
The relationship between mind and matter is perhaps the deepest intellectual challenge facing humanity. It links to wide ranges of science, philosophy and engineering, and has been infamously resistant to solution. In recent times, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a central theme in addressing this challenge, offering several insights that…http://engineering.nwu.ac.za/must-deep-learning/research-projects

DL Theory Generalisation in Deep Learning A long-standing theoretical interest in our group is generalisation - that is, how exactly information learned on a training set of samples is transferred to novel inputs. This is particularly relevant in the context of Deep Learning: Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have…http://engineering.nwu.ac.za/must-deep-learning/awards-and-events
