What do you need to need to make a machine learning project successful?

About this event

How can you make smart decisions about setup and execution of a machine learning project? How should you hire and support the staff working on the project? We hope to provide clear, thoughtful answers to these and other common questions to get you thinking about whether machine learning is a technology that you and your company or group should think about investing in. We will discuss topics like data collection, the trade-offs involved in choosing a model, and what to expect from a successful project, as well as how to salvage useful by-products and skills when projects don’t go as planned.

This is a beginner session oriented to business owners and project managers curious to learn more about machine learning, or who may have an idea that involves machine learning and want to know where to begin.

This session will take place on Thursday, March 24, 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm (Atlantic time)

You will need to have a laptop with a Mac, Linux or Windows operating system (not a tablet, Chromebook, etc).  

Participants must register using their institutional/organizational email address (not a personal email, i.e., gmail).

Instructions about how to join will be sent out one day prior to the start of the event to those who've registered with an institutional or organizational email.
