Machine Learning - Overview / Algorithm / Models / Production

Machine learning (ML) has gained significant attention because of its impact from advancements in areas like automated medical diagnosis to unique product interactions and advertising for individual users. At its core, it's a set of algorithms used for pattern matching and prediction, and it plays a prominent role in AI development. In this talk, I will provide an overview of ML, share an example algorithm and talk about how you would train the model as well as put it in production.
