Sustainable AI

In the era of big data and even bigger machine learning models, the environmental footprint of these technologies can no longer be ignored. This much-needed guide confronts the challenge head-on, offering a groundbreaking exploration into making deep learning (DL) both efficient and accessible. Author Raghavendra Selvan exposes the high costs--both environmental and economic--of traditional DL methods and presents practical solutions that pave the way for a more sustainable AI. This essential read is for anyone in the machine learning field, from the academic researcher to the industry practitioner, who wants to make a meaningful impact on both their work and the world. This book enables readers to be agents of change toward a more sustainable and inclusive technological future. In this book, you will:

Raghavendra Selvan (Raghav) is currently an Assistant Professor at the University of Copenhagen, with joint responsibilities at the Machine Learning Section (Dept. of Computer Science), Kiehn Lab (Department of Neuroscience) and the Data Science Laboratory. He received his PhD in Medical Image Analysis (University of Copenhagen, 2018). Raghavendra Selvan was born in Bangalore, India. His current research interests broadly pertain to Resource Efficient ML, Medical Image Analysis with ML, Quantum Tensor Networks and Graph Neural Networks. An overarching theme of his current research interests lies at the intersection of sustainability and ML where he is interested in investigating sustainability with ML, and also the sustainability of ML.
