Toronto AI

Want to level up your AI skills on Kaggle? Want help getting started? Willing to learn and help brainstorm with a team of new friends at a startup called Myplanet? Toronto AI and Myplanet are bringing together people throughout the community who want to hone their AI skills with Kaggle challenges. This is a great way to build experience, learn new techniques, to improve your portfolio, and to meet great people. The challenge we will be working on is the 'Quick Draw Doodle Recognition Challenge' - this will need some creative approaches with AI to solve: https://www.kaggle.com/c/quickdraw-doodle-recognition For this meetup, we will start with an introduction to the challenge, some orientation, and then attendees will be grouped into small teams with introductions. The teams then collaborate and brainstorm on the problem and collaborate with their team on possible design approaches. Each team will then be asked to present the findings of their team, using a Google Slides presentation (one team member will be responsible for making slides). FAQ: ---------------------------- - Is a laptop required? Yes - Is past experience in machine learning recommended? Yes - Are you allowed to start the challenge before the event? Yes! This is encouraged, but not mandatory, but it will definitely help your team.
