Who is this presentation for?

  • Developers

Prerequisite knowledge

  • Familiarity with machine learning

Materials or downloads needed in advance

  • A laptop with TensorFlow installed (This workshop will be conducted on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and will use GCP's infrastructure to run TensorFlow.)

What you'll learn

  • Learn how to classify images using deep learning, implement convolutional neural networks, improve the model by augmentation, batch normalization, and more, and leverage transfer learning

Description

Benoit Dherin explains how machine learning is applied to image classification, discusses evolving methods and challenges, and walks you through creating increasingly sophisticated image classification models using TensorFlow. You’ll learn different strategies for building an image classifier using convolutional neural networks and discover how to improve the model’s accuracy with augmentation, feature extraction, and fine-tuning hyperparameters while avoiding overfitting your data.

Hi,
I have tensor flow installed with Anaconda; I assume this will work?
I am also curious to hear during the workshop of alternative solution to TensorFlow, in particular for Java and Scala (DL4J, Weka, etc…). But of course this will depend on the time we have…

Hi, I want to make sure that my corporate computer’s proxy allows access to everything that we will be accessing. Are there any URLs I can test in advance to make sure it works?
