Title: Journey into AI Recommender Systems
Description:
In a world where nearly all manual tasks are being automated, the definition of manual is changing. Recommender engines powered by Artificial Intelligence can help buyers make choices based on their interest in products and services, provide recommendations while buyers are making choices, and get smarter and more personal with every interaction.
But, how is this done? How do you get a machine to even begin to understand what is a buyer’s interest of choice? There are core Machine Learning algorithms that will help us begin to answer these questions.
In this session, theDevMasters will take you on a journey into Machine Learning algorithms. We will not go into much of the math behind them but instead teach you about each algorithm, what they are good for, and how to train them. We'll also show you different metrics for evaluating these models; Python will be the language of choice for this session.
