When does class start/end?
Classes begin promptly at 9:00 am, and typically end at 5:00 pm.
What is machine learning, and what kinds of problems can it solve? What are the five phases of converting a candidate use case to be driven by machine learning, and why is it important that the phases not be skipped? Why are neural networks so popular now? How can you set up a supervised learning problem and find a good, generalizable solution using gradient descent and a thoughtful way of creating datasets? Learn how to write distributed machine learning models that scale in TensorFlow, scale out the training of those models. and offer high-performance predictions. Convert raw data to features in a way that allows ML to learn important characteristics from the data and bring human insight to bear on the problem. Finally, learn how to incorporate the right mix of parameters that yields accurate, generalized models and knowledge of the theory to solve specific types of ML problems. You will experiment with end-to-end ML, starting from building an ML-focused strategy and progressing into model training, optimization, and productionalization with hands-on labs using Google Cloud.

Overall very good and informative course. Definitely aimed for beginners which applied to me and the course kept me engaged while gaining hands-on experience over the 3 days
Instructions were clear, lab exercises were pertinent and self-explanatory, topic was thoroughly covered in the presented course material.
This was an excellent and very informative class. I will recommend it to others. Thank you.
Simply great training provider that I can go for updating/acquiring my skill sets.
course material well organized; Some material and labs out of date. instructor was outstanding and able to work around out of date materials.
