The day started with Abdul Azeez discussing basics of NLP or Natural Language Processing. NLP is used for text analytics, language translation, sentiment analysis etc.
Then came Shreyas Jagannath session which introduced ANNs and CNNs. ANNs or Artificial Neural Networks are more complex forms of ML algorithms and help solve complex problems in Computer Vision, Language Modeling, Healthcare, Financial Services, Driverless Cars etc. CNNs or Convolutional Neural Networks are specialized neural networks useful for image processing applications.
Then came an amazing session on Speech2Face algorithm by Vishruit Kulshreshtha. Here we train a model to reconstruct the face from short audio segments. The training data consists of YouTube or internet videos from which the model learns to produce images from audio portions. The images capture the speaker attributes such as age, gender and ethnicity. This is done in a self-supervised manner, by utilizing the natural co-occurrence of faces and speech in Internet videos, without the need to model the attributes explicitly.
