1. "Solving Image Recognition Problems using Microsoft Cognitive Services and Cognitive Toolkit", Dmitry Soshnikov

In this talk, I will talk about several real-life projects related to image classification or image detection, and how Microsoft technologies helped us to solve those problems. We will cover simple Cognitive Services, which can be used by software developers without any AI background, as well as CNTK neural network framework and neural network training at scale using Azure Batch AI. The talk would be useful for both general software developers as well as data scientists.

In his spare time he is fond of amateur electronics and make-up, technological magic and digital art, holds Chinese tea ceremonies gu fu cha.

2. "Conversational AI: Handling your user's small talk and conversational chatter using natural language processing models", Alyssa Ong

Ever have issues handling all the random chatter users throw at your bot? Such as "How are you?", "Tell me a joke", "Are you a bot?" Handling all of these is challenging for bot builders but it gives another dimension of personality to your bot and significantly improves the experience. In this session, we will explore different techniques to build and train NLP models to handle freestyle conversation.

Alyssa is a Software Engineer and Evangelist for Conversational AI and Machine Learning based in Microsoft’s Asia Pacific team. Featured in VentureBeat as one of the top 100 people to watch in the chatbot space, she has extensive experience coding with enterprises and startups across Asia and bringing their AI related projects to life. Where majority of developers are fueled by coffee, she is fueled by bubble tea.

After Party!

After talks thanks to Microsoft you are all invited to join us for after party at Znajomi Znajomych (Wilcza Street 58A, 00-679 Warsaw). Vouchers for drinks will be distributed to attendees.
