Abstract:
Intro to machine learning: What is data science and machine learning, and what do they have to do with computer science and software engineering? We'll be giving a high level overview of common modeling techniques, some of the popular data science technologies, and the basics of training, validating, and scoring a model. We'll also discuss a few case studies on how machine learning can be used to make a social good impact. Finally, the talk will include an interactive exercise where we build a model as a group!
