Talk 1: Building Deep Learning Neural Networks for Developers using Python and Tensor Flow by Keith Harrison

Machine learning has been all over the news recently from beating humans at Go (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-40042581) to diagnosing heart failure (https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/04/180430160513.htm). I decided to learn what all the fuss was about and soon found that these amazing results were being achieved by Deep Learning Neural Networks and you can build them yourself even if you have no background in Data Science.

In this talk I’ll explain what Machine Learning is and show you how to build a Deep Learning Neural Network from scratch to perform simple hand writing recognition using Keras and TensorFlow. It’s not as hard as you think!

Talk 2: We are trying to find a second speaker!
