Maximising Business Efficiency using Artificial Intelligence

Brisbane Business Hub

Join this practical introduction to deep learning and its potential for business applications.

Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence (AI) that allow computers to learn and improve based on data – but what does this mean for business?To help answer this question, we will explore a subset of machine learning known as deep learning. This has become an essential technology for many businesses, allowing automation and streamlining of processes which in turn improves customer experience and greater data insights.We will introduce the basics of deep learning and show you an example of how powerful it can be for your own business by stepping through how to build an image classifier using the fastai library. This is where computers are able to automatically categorise visual content based on the rules provided.Whether you are an absolute beginner or a seasoned Python developer, this presentation will give you a practical and hands-on introduction to deep learning and its potential for business applications. By the end of the session, you will have a working image classifier and a better understanding of how deep learning can benefit your organization.In this workshop, you will:<ul><li>Understand the basics of deep learning, including neural networks, training, and optimization</li><li>Hands-on experience in building an image classifier using fastai and fine-tuning a pre-trained model</li><li>Understanding the potential of deep learning for solving real-world business problems, and challenges associated with deploying deep learning models in production environments</li></ul>P﻿lease note there will be pizza and networking from 5:30PM - 6:00PM. The workshop session will then run from 6:00PM - 7:30PM.PRESENTERSAbout Arun Prakash Pillai, Senior Data Scientist at WooliesXArun is a Senior Data Scientist in Brisbane, specializing in providing machine learning solutions for retail industries.
