Sri FC Kohli Memorial Lecture
IEEE Computer Society Chapter Hyderabad Section invites you to the 2nd Sri FC Kohli Memorial Lecture on 26th June, 2022 to be delivered by Dr. Kiran Gunnam. The title of the talk is Co-Design of Algorithms and Architectures for Machine Learning Inference at the Edge for Video Analytics.
Faqir Chand Kohli was the founder and first CEO of TCS Tata Consultancy Services, India's largest software services company. He was also associated with other companies within the Tata Group and had been President of the Indian Information Technology services advocacy body NASSCOM. He is frequently referred to as the "Father of the Indian Software Industry" due to his significant contribution to the Indian IT industry.
In memory of Sri FC Kohli, the IEEE Computer Society Chapter, Hyderabad Section has organized an annual memorial lecture series. The first lecture in the series was delivered by Dr. P.J. Narayanan, Director, IIIT Hyderabad on 19th March 2021 at IIIT Hyderabad.

Co-Design of Algorithms and Architectures for Machine Learning Inference at the Edge for Video Analytics
Video analytics involves processing video content in real-time, extracting metadata, sending out alerts, and delivering actionable intelligence insights to security staff or other systems. Video analytics products apply artificial intelligence to cameras to recognize temporal and spatial events. Video analytics are needed in various end applications such as quality inspection, industrial process automation, and workplace security. It is crucial to have video analytics performed at the edge on the multiple streams from on-premises cameras to make automated predictions with high accuracy and low latency. This talk explains the co-design of hardware-friendly algorithms and corresponding domain-specific accelerator architectures for machine learning inference at the edge of video analytics.
