OpenPOWER Summit 2021

A Course on Machine Learning for Software Developers
2021-10-28, 13:00–13:45 (US/Central), RoomC

Understanding machine learning algorithm is essential but the development, acceleration, and production engineering capabilities are also required in industry. This machine learning course introduces students to the concepts of data preprocessing, algorithmic overview of different supervised and unsupervised learning techniques, their development strategies and accelerating those algorithms using different hardware such as, IBM Power hardware. We developed the course in collaboration with experts from different industries (e.g., Facebook and IBM). The course will help the community to know more about the capabilities of IBM POWER processor while Design an ML production system end-to-end including project scoping, data needs, modeling strategies, and deployment requirements.
