Build a Pet Detector in 30 Minutes or Less

Ever wondered what breed that dog or cat is? In this show, you’ll learn how to train, optimize and deploy a deep learning model using Azure Notebooks, Azure Machine Learning Service, and Visual Studio Code using Python. Using transfer learning to retrain a mobilenet model via Tensorflow to recognize dog and cat breeds using the Oxford IIIT Pet Dataset.

Next, watch how to optimize that model using the Azure Machine Learning Service HyperDrive service, and improve the accuracy of our model to over 90%. Finally, we’ll put on our developer hat, and use Visual Studio Code and our Python Extension to deploy and test our model. Along the way you’ll see cool features like our new Jupyter-powered interactive programming experience in VS Code, our AI powered IntelliSense feature called Intellicode, and our Azure Machine Learning extension.

TensorFlow Machine Learning for Programmers

TensorFlow Machine Learning for Programmers

In this talk from the most recent O’Reilly AI Conference, Laurence Moroney from Google talked about Machine Learning, AI, Deep Learning and more, and how they fit the programmers toolkit. He introduced what it’s all about, cutting through the hype, to show the opportunities that are available in Machine Learning. He also introduced TensorFlow, and how it’s a framework that’s designed to make Machine Learning easy and accessible, and how intelligent apps that use ML can run in a variety of places including mobile, web and IoT.

What Does Machine Learning Think of Your Code?

What Does Machine Learning Think of Your Code?

In what could be a sign of things to come, machine learning algorithms that apply NLP techniques to source code could replace the need for human reviewers. The notion of a computer reviewing source code underscores that it’s not just low skill jobs at risk in the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

In this video, Francesc Campoy, VP Developer Relations at source{d} talks about ML-assisted code review (Lookout) and the Public Git Archive.

You’ll learn how and why source{d} makes uses a dataset based on many GitHub repos available as public datasets to train its models and how “assisted code reviews” apply ML, image processing, and NLP concepts – like word2vec – to code.

Francesc shares his favorite MLonCode moments, why it’s made him a better developer, what’s coming next, and where you can get started.

Siraj Raval on Time Series Prediction

Siraj Raval on Time Series Prediction

Time series is the fastest growing category of data out there! It’s a series of data points indexed in time order.

Often, a time series is a sequence taken at successive equally spaced points in time. In this video, Siraj Raval covers 8 different time series techniques that will help us predict the price of gold over a period of 3 years.
