Machine Learning Workshop Series
Topic: Artificial Intelligence for Everyone
Join us as we collectively explore and discuss AI, in particular, a thriving area of AI called Machine Learning. The series will begin at a very basic level, and progress towards building AIs of our own.
You will learn what Machine Learning is, and be equipped with the skills to build your own Machine Learning algorithm and then apply this to projects found within your discipline.
