Sonat and NCE Media

Workshop: Machine Learning
This session will examine closer how machine learning can be applied to recommend content to users based on behavior and interests.
Please note: The exercises will be conducted with Python and requires that you (or someone accompanying you to the workshop) is familiar with basic programming and that you bring your own device.
During the workshop you will gain insight into the underlying methodology and how you can evaluate functional correctness, by working through examples and practical exercises as a group. Among other things, we will look at content-based methods, collaborative filtering with matrix factorization, and sequence prediction with deep neural networks.
If machine learning has seemed like a mythical domain to you, this workshop will provide you with a better understanding of the process and help you get started with your own projects.
