Mini Hackathon: Building a deep learning powered application in R
Details
Hello everyone,
We are super excited to bring you all our first R-Ladies Hackathon in SF. Come and join us for this fun afternoon where we will be coding in R, using several packages including R Shiny, Plumber, etc. We will leverage the Model Asset Exchange, an open source project that makes free, deployable and trainable deep learning code available for you to use and consume.
Our goal in this hackathon is for you to use these models and create a web application with a potential use case around it. You can find sample python version of the app here: https://bit.ly/2J6yLSM
The exciting use case will win the competition.
Prizes:
#1: $75 gift card
#2: Have your project added to the Open Source Developer patterns
AGENDA:
1:30pm - 2pm: Setup
2pm - 5pm: Hacking time
5pm - 5:30pm: Presentations
5:45pm: Judges will provide feedback and announce the winner
