What the Dev?

COVID-19 has driven a significant demand on real-time data analysis in cloud and edge environments but organizations are severely limited in their ability to achieve real-time analysis with AI, due to the current size and speed of deep neural networks. Dr. Eli David, a pioneering researcher in deep learning and neural networks and co-founder of DeepCube, has been working on solving this exact problem and believes the answer lies in rethinking the way we train deep learning models to more closely mirror the human brain’s early childhood development.
