The IEEE Information Theory Society Guangzhou Chapter and Tsinghua University Shenzhen International Graduate School (SIGS) are organizing the GBA International Workshop on Information Theory and Artificial Intelligence on Sep. 25, 2021, which will be free for registration. Many methods and ideas developed in information theory (IT) have been adopted to explain and uncover the internal mechanism in modern deep neural networks. Progress regarding an information theoretic understanding of deep neural networks has often been driven by the deep-learning-based application and induced phenomenon and is yet to be explored further. Moreover, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) techniques to study and improve the classical source coding and channel coding problem in information theory is also yet to be explored. This workshop aims to provide an opportunity for academic exchange on novel progress regarding the connection between IT and AI. This will be a hybrid conference where overseas scholars will participate online, and domestic ones will be onsite. Graduate students are encouraged to submit their most recent results to our Recent Results Poster Session. All are welcome!
