Seeburg - Schaufenster der Wissenschaft

The Deep Learning School "Advanced Concepts" is organized by the BMFTR-funded ErUM-Data-Hub with support from the community organization DIG-UM . The event serves the professional education of young scientists belonging to the ErUM Community. The workshop is aimed at deep-learning enthusiasts  from all ErUM communities (Research on Universe and Matter) who have prior knowledge of neural networks and applied basic concepts of deep learning.

From 1st to 4th September 2026, we will host for the fourth time the Deep Learning School at the Seeburg in Kiel (right by the Kiel Fjord). In a comfortable ambience, intensive classes on autoencoder, transformers and normalizing flows will be held over 4 days. The course includes a challenge to be worked out and presented by participant subgroups.

A fee of 100€ will be charged for participation in the school. The workshop fee includes the cost of the workshop, catering (coffee & lunch) and a school dinner. 

Programme is preliminary. Registrations will open October 2025.
