Description

This tutorial aims to provide attendees with practical knowledge of advanced intelligent learning algorithms and how they can be applied to communications and networking problems. The tutorial will first provide attendees with an introduction to intelligent algorithms as well as a crash course on some of the theory behind intelligent algorithms. The tutorial will then provide an overview of many of the key types of learning algorithms, including machine learning algorithms, genetic algorithms, bio-inspired algorithms, deep learning, and then discuss the emerging field of multi-agent learning algorithms. The tutorial will then go on to compare and contrast the strengths and weaknesses of various types of algorithms, developing and presenting a detailed taxonomy of all the various mainstream forms of intelligent learning. The tutorial will then go on to highlight a plethora of areas of communications and networking in which intelligent learning algorithms have played a key role in technology development, including all layers of the protocol stack. Lastly, the tutorial will discuss existing machine learning tools and libraries available to today’s practitioners such as TensorFlow, Python scikit-learn, Theano, etc.
