Participants are expected to bring their own laptops running the latest version of Chrome or Firefox. There are no PCs installed in the course room! 

Contents

Whether your organisation needs to monitor cybersecurity threats, fraudulent financial transactions, product defects, or equipment health, artificial intelligence can help catch data abnormalities before they impact your business. AI models can be trained and deployed to automatically analyse datasets, define “normal behavior,” and identify breaches in patterns quickly and effectively. These models can then be used to predict future anomalies. With massive amounts of data available across industries and subtle distinctions between normal and abnormal patterns, it’s critical that organisations use AI to quickly detect anomalies that pose a threat.

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to implement multiple AI-based approaches to solve a specific use case of identifying network intrusions for telecommunications. You’ll learn three different anomaly detection techniques using GPU-accelerated XGBoost, deep learning-based autoencoders, and generative adversarial networks (GANs) and then implement and compare supervised and unsupervised learning techniques. At the end of the workshop, you’ll be able to use AI to detect anomalies in your work across telecommunications, cybersecurity, finance, manufacturing, and other key industries.

The course is part of a training series co-organised by LRZ and NVIDIA Deep Learning Institute (DLI).  All instructors are NVIDIA certified University Ambassadors.

Learning Objectives

By participating in this workshop, you’ll:

  • Prepare data and build, train, and evaluate models using XGBoost, autoencoders, and GANs
  • Detect anomalies in datasets with both labeled and unlabeled data
  • Classify anomalies into multiple categories regardless of whether the original data was labeled

Important information
