About the session - Democratizing AI with Automated Machine Learning in Azure

Automated ML is an emerging field in Machine Learning that helps developers and new data scientists with little data science knowledge build Machine Learning models and solutions without understanding the complexity of Learning Algorithm selection, Neural architecture search, and Hyperparameter tuning.

In this talk, we will explore Azure Machine Learning's automated machine learning capability, given a dataset and a few configuration parameters. You will get a trained, high-quality Machine Learning model for the dataset that you can use for Predictions.

You will learn how you can use Automated machine learning for productivity gains, empowering domain experts to build ML-based solutions and scale to build several models with Azure Machine Learning's automated ML and may be able to answer the question -- can automated machine learning outperform handcrafted models?
