The Austin Python Meetup Monthly Meetup

Presentations: We have two presentations again this month. The 1st presentation will start at about 7:30pm, and we'll take a ~15 min break between the two presentations.

Lee Harper will present on machine learning on the Microsoft Azure platform. "With the increasing proliferation of machine learning models, reducing barriers to model deployment is becoming increasingly important. I will demonstrate Microsoft’s Azure ML SDK package, which provides a large number of useful APIs that integrate with Microsoft Azure, allowing for straightforward model and dataset versioning, experiment tracking, and rapid cloud deployment."

Chris Leonard will present on original cognitive linguistics algorithms implemented in Python.

Afterwards: At approx 9pm, we'll move to a local bar. This month we'll be back at The Russia House on 5th St. https://binged.it/2OicmUQ
