Machine Learning is a huge, deep field. Come get a head start on how you can learn about how machines learn.
This talk will be an overview of the Machine Learning field. We’ll cover the various tools and techniques that are available to you to solve complex, data-driven problems. We’ll walk through the algorithms and apply them to some real but accessible problems so you can see them at work.
