TVM Conference 2018 Program

TVM is an open-source deep learning compiler stack for CPUs, GPUs, and specialized accelerators. It aims to close the gap between the productivity-focused deep learning frameworks, and the performance- or efficiency-oriented hardware backends.

We are excited to hold a conference on the state of the art of deep learning compilation optimization. We welcome TVM contributors, potential users, UW SAMPL sponsors, collaborators and researchers and practitioners from the broader community. The conference will discuss recent advances in frameworks, compilers, systems and architecture support, security, training and hardware acceleration.
