About the event
This workshop is being run as part of a collaboration between QCIF and National Computational Infrastructure (NCI).
Image classification is a fundamental task in computer vision, a field of artificial intelligence focused on teaching computers to interpret and understand visual information from the world. Image classification specifically involves the process of assigning a label or category to an input image. The goal is to enable computers to recognize and categorize objects, scenes, or patterns within images, just as a human would. With this hands-on workshop, participants will learn how to perform an image classification task using a convolutional neural network (CNN). Through coding exercises in Python, attendees will load and pre-process a set of images to build, train and evaluate a CNN to make classification predictions.
This workshop will take place over two days, Wednesday 12th and Thursday 13th November 2025 from 10:00am to 2:00pm AEDT (Canberra) / 9:00am to…
