William Mong Distinguished Lecture: Model Based Deep Learning: Applications to Imaging and Communications

June 12, 2024

Professor Yonina Eldar of the Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel delivered the William Mong Distinguished Lecture titled “Model Based Deep Learning: Applications to Imaging and Communications” on June 5, 2024 at Lecture Theatre C, LG1/F, Chow Yei Ching Building, The University of Hong Kong. The talk was organised by the Faculty of Engineering and facilitated by Professor Kaibin Huang, Head of the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering.

During the lecture, Professor Yonina Eldar shared her various approaches to model based learning which merge parametric models with optimization tools and classical algorithms leading to efficient, interpretable networks from reasonably sized training sets. She also provided how model-based methods can also be used for efficient diagnosis of COVID19 using X-ray and ultrasound.
