Machine Learning in Production
by Szilard Pafka

In this talk I will discuss the main steps involved in having machine learning models in production. No hype (“artificial intelligence”), no bullshitting and no marketing of expensive products (the best tools are all open source and free, you just need to know what you are doing).

Bio: Szilard has trained, deployed and maintained machine learning models in production (starting with random forests) since 2007. He’s a Chief Scientist and a Physics PhD with 20+ years experience with data, computing and modeling. He founded the first data meetup in LA in 2009 (by chance) and he has organized several data science events since.

We’ll also have a lightning talk (10-mins) before the main talk:

Opening the black box: Attempts to understand the results of machine learning models
by Michael Tiernay, Data Scientist at Edmunds

What has Kaggle learned from 2 million machine learning models? Anthony Goldbloom, founder and CEO of Kaggle UPDATE:Video recording of the talk available here Kaggle is a community of almost 450K data scientists who have built almost 2MM machine learning models to participate in our competitions. Data scientists come to Kaggle to learn, collaborate and develop the state of the art in machine learning. This talk will cover some of the lessons on winning techniques we have learned from the Kaggle community.

This is a re-publication of a blog post from a blog I created not long before we got the idea to start DataScience.LA, and in many aspects it is the genesis of DSLA (the blog’s name, the people getting together - thanks Eduardo, Amelia and Leigh). It was also the spark that lead to the creation of the Python Data Science LA meetup.
