Start: 2019-06-04T19:00:00+01:00

Location: Raspberry Pi Foundation

This is the June monthly meeting. Normally some of us go on to the pub afterwards.

Sam Ringer, who is a Machine Learning Engineer at Speechmatics (http://www.speechmatics.com/) will lead a workshop:

Together, we will build and train an image classifier using the Deep Learning framework PyTorch.

The overall aim of the session will be for those attending to leave with a decent understanding of what 'training a model' actually means in the context of machine learning.

PyTorch combines the power of the most advanced deep learning frameworks with an intuitive Pythonic API that makes writing machine learning code a pleasure and not a pain.

An entry level understanding of the key moving parts of deep learning is desired but not essential.

Please come prepared with a laptop and Google account.

Speechmatics will also be providing pizza.

**How CamPUG uses meetup.com**

We mainly use meetup as a way of publicising meetings, at which it is very good. We also use the RSVP mechanism to get some idea of how many people will turn up to a meeting, but this is very inaccurate - at best, we normally get between half and two-thirds of the "yes" numbers attending.

We do not require people to pay for meetings, or acquire tickets, and we do not "take a register" of who actually turns up. We don't even insist that people have to use meetup to indicate they're coming. It is important to me that this be a free and open meeting.

This does mean that we could have a problem when a meeting is very popular and reaches the practical room size - i.e., how many will safely fit in our meeting room. Given our new venue, we don't think that is likely to happen in the near future, but we have put a limit on the number of "yes" RSVP replies: larger than the actual room size, but hopefully not too large.
