• Item retrieval systems are well implemented in our daily lives, but few are aware of how they are powered.
• Speaker Identification, Face recognition, Targeted advertisement are all examples of Item retrieval systems.
• During this workshop we will present what are the mechanisms behind those systems and see how we can implement one of them.
• We will setup a complete sketch-based image retrieval pipeline, from the processing of the dataset to the deployment of a small web app, including the engineering of the Deep learning model powering it.

• Learn how to represent different kinds of data in the same space and align embeddings.
• Implement a Conditional Variational AutoEncoder and other Deep learning models to create a Sketch-based Image Retrieval system.
• Create a small web application to expose the sketch-based image retrieval system to a live doodle board."

• Basic knowledge of python
• Computer with internet connection
