Google Cloud and SoftServe Meet-up: Machine Learning Design, Demystified in London

WHAT

Join us at the Google UK office at Kings Cross for our free meet-up, “Machine Learning Design, Demystified.”

Once available only to scientists, today machine learning (ML) is open to a much broader audience of software architects and engineers. Inspired by attribute-driven design (ADD) and Smart Decisions (a software architecture design game for big data), the authors are happy to present a new version of the game focused on designing ML systems.

In this participatory session, you will learn about designing the architecture for ML systems via series of gamified interactive exercises. We will simulate state-of-the-art ML design systems by analyzing both business and technical requirements, selecting the best matching algorithms, and teaching how to validate early design decisions using rapid prototyping techniques.

Attendees are encouraged to think of an ML use case and bring it to the meet-up for discussion.
