He taught a 3-hour tutorial, titled, "Optimization Techniques for Sparse/Low-Rank Recovery Problems in Image Processing and Machine Learning" and presented two papers.

We look at Google’s TPUs – tensor processing units – and ask what makes them different to CPUs, GPUs and DPUs, as well as how you can take advantage of them in AI processing.
