PyDataMCR - Deep Neural Networks Workshop

PyDataMCR is a strictly professional event, as such professional behaviour is expected.

We welcome everyone with an interest in all things data, from beginners to seasoned pros, whether you work in journalism, eCommerce, physics, or anything in between. We're big fans of open source. Python, R, and Julia are staples, but Java, and JavaScript are welcome too.

The Plan:
Marc will provide some background on how Machine Learning works, how it's being used at Google, and how it can be used to solve real world problems. Then he'll lead a lab exercise, focusing on how to train and execute a deep neural network.

About Marc:

I build tools, demos, codelabs, and other things to make the Google Cloud Platform easier and more fun to use. Originally from New Jersey, then Seattle, and now live and work in London. I co-authored a book about Google Compute Engine and wrote the product announcement demo. In a previous life, I developed communication systems at Bell Labs and Lucent Technologies. Outside of work, I enjoy indie music, quirky films (especially documentaries), books, puzzles, and chess. I'm also very interested in education, teaching, and applying technology (like spaced repetition and Google Codelabs) to enhance the learning experience.
