Abstract: The term Word Embeddings refers to a set of NLP techniques where words or phrases are mapped to real-valued vectors. In this talk we will be exploring one of the most popular word embedding models, GloVe (for Global Vectors), and a very interesting application of embeddings in recommendations/product similarity.

Bio: Kostas joined Argos in 2017 as a Lead Machine Learning engineer. Prior to Argos, he worked at Royal Mail, Mailonline, Pearson and in research; he was involved in a broad range of projects from European FP6 research programs to EdTech, Analytics, Search, Predictive Modelling using Machine Learning and AI. He is interested in Deep Learning, Distributed Computing, Optimisation, Search, Predictive Analytics and Natural Language Processing.
