About Gordon Elliott
Much as I love coding, coding and actually achieving results is even more satisfying (and profitable). Python is the most effective and fun way to achieve this I've found so far.

TALK 2
Title: Reusable Artificial Intelligence at LogoGrab
To first introduce LogoGrab augmented reality platform, focusing on the artificial intelligence aspects of our operations (machine learning and computer vision).
A second part of the talk covers the modular redesign of our AI stack to address reusability requirements and continuous integration. This has been accomplished by leveraging efficient Python constructs and was heavily inspired by functional programming.
The talk will conclude by highlighting the lessons learned in developing a large and efficient AI stack in Python while minimising the learning curve for new engineers contributing to our code base.
Talk length: 40 minutes plus Q&A
