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

Bat Mobile
The History: We made history when our debut solar powered vehicle was crowned joint Event Champions in the 2012 Sasol Solar Challenge. It may not have been the most elegant (it was definitely the cheapest) vehicle on the road but the Batmobile, as our car was affectionately known, certainly was effective. …http://engineering.nwu.ac.za/solar-car/sirius-x25
Sirius X25
[tabs] Sirius X25 The NWU Solar Car, Sirius X25 is the culmination of advanced technologies and innovation that sets a benchmark for South African solar car design. Named after the nearest star to earth’s solar system, Sirius (which shines 25 times brighter than Sol), this is one vehicle truly worthy of its name.…http://engineering.nwu.ac.za/solar-car/2016-0
