Learn to Compress
Workshop at the International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT) 2024
This workshop will act as a dynamic platform for fostering interdisciplinary collaborations, featuring distinguished experts in machine learning and computer science, who will contribute valuable practical insights to the real-world applications of data compression. For ISIT regulars, it will acquaint them with recent advances in data compression, enabling them to explore the interplay between classical and contemporary methods. For those new to the field and experts alike, it will provide a chance to learn from experienced researchers from the industry and academia, and connect with peers who share similar research interests. The workshop aims to leave attendees with a more comprehensive intellectual toolkit in the era of machine learning.
