Location: Great American Ballroom J/K

Who is this presentation for?

  • JavaScript developers, web developers, mobile app developers, and full stack developers

Level

New to TensorFlow

Description

TensorFlow.js is a library for training and deploying machine learning models in the browser and in Node.js, and offers unique opportunities for JavaScript developers. Kangyi Zhang, Brijesh Krishnaswami, Joseph Paul Cohen, and Brendan Duke take a deep dive into the TensorFlow.js ecosystem: how to bring an existing machine learning model into your JS app, retrain the model with your data, and go beyond the browser to other JS platforms with live demos of models and featured apps (WeChat virtual plugin from L’Oréal and a radiology diagnostic tool from Mila).

Prerequisite knowledge

  • Familiarity with JavaScript and machine learning

What you'll learn

  • Learn how TensorFlow enables the use of machine learning in JavaScript applications and resources to get started
