Toronto AI Meetup – Introduction to Deep Learning by Microsoft

Details

Topic:
Introduction to Deep Learning by Microsoft

SIGN UP HERE

https://www.meetup.com/Toronto-AI/events/266978795/


Talk Details:
Deep learning is currently a hot topic when it comes to Artificial Intelligence. Often this topic seems out of reach to developers – I disagree! This session will introduce the basic concepts needed to understand deep learning and its use with a specific emphasis on computer vision. Attendees will learn what is actually happening when training a model and how the output can be used in a production setting with a simple image classification problem.

Speaker Bio:
My name is Seth Juarez. I currently live near Redmond, Washington and work for Microsoft. I received my Bachelors Degree in Computer Science at UNLV with a Minor in Mathematics. I also completed a Masters Degree at the University of Utah in the field of Computer Science. I currently am interested in Artificial Intelligence specifically in the realm of Machine Learning.
