The annual KDD conference is the premier interdisciplinary conference bringing together researchers and practitioners from data science, data mining, knowledge discovery, large-scale data analytics, and big data.

For the first time, KDD will host a full Deep Learning Day as a key event, specifically dedicated to the field. The goal will be to provide a clear, wide overview of recent developments in deep learning, including emerging topics deserving of more attention, such as graph convolutional neural networks or computational optimal transport.

FeedForward co-founder, Kevin Webster, is co-organising the Deep Learning Day, which will feature speakers from organisations including DeepMind, Tesla and MIT.
