AWS DeepRacer - Automated Bots "AI performing live on speeding tracks!"

We are hosting the 5th Seattle Machine Learning Meetup on 5/22. If you are engineer/data-scientist/researcher applying machine learning or just interested, please join us. Food & drinks will be served!

Title: AWS DeepRacer - Automated Bots "AI performing live on speeding tracks!"

What is AWS DeepRacer?
AWS DeepRacer is 4WD model with monster truck axle that is able to learn to move autonomously on predetermined paths through Reinforcement Learning. The series of steps to get on track and watch your car run is truly minimal. It is possible to have a model trained for driving in just under an hour, although, obviously, more experiments and much more time are needed to get good results.

In this talk, Sahika will provide interesting details about technology that powers AWS DeepRacer. Followed by the presentation, we will have tournament where AWS DeepRacer bots will race on live tracks to give an exciting climax to the audience!

Speaker: Dr. Sahika Genc (Senior Applied Scientist, AI Ecosystem, AWS)
