JuliaCon 2015 Preview: Deep Learning, 3D Printing, and Parallel Computing at MIT
JuliaCon 2015, the annual conference for the Julia programming language community, is scheduled to take place from June 24th to 28th at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Following the success of the inaugural event in Chicago, this year's conference expands into a four-day program featuring workshops, hackathons, and dual-track talks. The event highlights Julia's application in diverse scientific fields, including bioinformatics, astronomy, economic modeling, and quantum simulations. Key sessions will cover deep learning, probabilistic programming, and high-performance computing. Notable speakers include Julia founder Viral B. Shah, who will discuss JuliaBox, and Mike Innes, presenting on web-powered apps. The conference also explores practical developments such as 3D printing integration, visualization tools like Gadfly, and package interoperability. Attendees can participate in introductory workshops, contribute to open-source projects during hackathons, and attend specialized sessions on statistics and code optimization. Early bird registration deadlines are emphasized for prospective participants. This gathering serves as a significant platform for developers and researchers to share advancements in using Julia for complex computational tasks and scientific research.
