Learning with Limited Labeled Data with Shioulin Sam - TWiML Talk #255 Apr 22, 2019

Show notes

Today we’re joined by Shioulin Sam, Research Engineer with Cloudera Fast Forward Labs. Shioulin and I caught up to discuss the newest report to come out of CFFL, “Learning with Limited Label Data,” which explores active learning as a means to build applications requiring only a relatively small set of labeled data. We start our conversation with a review of active learning and some of the reasons why it’s recently become an interesting technology for folks building systems based on deep learning

cuDF, cuML & RAPIDS: GPU Accelerated Data Science with Paul Mahler - TWiML Talk #254 Apr 19, 2019

Show notes

Today we're joined by Paul Mahler, senior data scientist and technical product manager for ML at NVIDIA. In our conversation, Paul and I discuss NVIDIA's RAPIDS open source project, which aims to bring GPU acceleration to traditional data science workflows and ML tasks. We dig into the various subprojects like cuDF and cuML that make up the RAPIDS ecosystem, as well as the role of lower-level libraries like mlprims and the relationship to other open-source projects like Scikit-learn, XGBoost and Dask.

Edge AI for Smart Manufacturing with Trista Chen - TWiML Talk #253 Apr 18, 2019
