Workshops on ‘Machine Learning using Julia’ and ‘Natural Language Processing’

As part of the 11th symposium, the Data Centre &  Analytics Lab (DCAL) held two parallel workshops on Machine Learning using Julia and Natural Language Processing on July 16th, 17th and 18th. A total of 20 external participants and 20+ IIMB community members benefited from the three-day workshop. Machine Learning is a fast-growing and exciting field. In the workshop, one develops an understanding of the motivation for machine learning models and design intelligent systems that learn from datasets. The workshop introduces the learner to the basic concepts of machine learning models, helps them solve new classes of problems that were once thought prohibitively challenging and encourages them to better appreciate the complex nature of human intelligence as they solve these problems using machine learning algorithms.
