No previous AI/ML learning experience required- beginners are welcomed and encouraged to join!Preserving animal diversity through Capstone projects with UCL
We all want to make a difference, and working for Microsoft is not something that should stop us from doing so. There's nothing that has as much meaning for me as working to preserve animal diversity. Just like anything, we can't do everything on our own. We need help. That's where University College London (UCL) and Sarah Maston, who leads Project 15 at Microsoft, comes colliding.University Texas Austin Students Complete VizWiz Challenge with Microsoft Azure
Applications that utilize machine learning have greatly improved human life in many fields. One such application is to help people who are blind or with low vision learn about their visual surroundings using computer vision. By creating such applications, people with visual impairments can more independently accomplish daily tasks such as recognizing the denomination of currency, whether their socks match, and what flavor of yogurt they select to eat for breakfast. To spur research in developing such applications, a series of VizWiz datasets were created to support several AI challenges. One such dataset challenge includes images taken by visually impaired users and an associated question about each image.How University Texas Austin Students Study Machine Learning with Microsoft Azure
In the spring semester of 2021, 19 students from The University of Texas at Austin took the Introduction to Machine Learning course taught by Professor Danna Gurari. Before taking the course, nearly half of the students had no programming background. By the end of the course, the students learned the foundations of Machine Learning and gained hands-on experience developing many machine learning models for different problems in Python. As part of the course, the students also paired up to develop final projects of their own design, with many groups achieving their research goals using the power of Microsoft AzureMicrosoft Project15 & University College London Red Panda Project
Since my first meeting with Sonam Lama (a representative from the Red Panda Network) it was evident that their current workflow lacked any sophistication and revolved heavily around human labour. From manually classifying and retrieving images to making in-field observations using pen and paper, it was clear that the workflow needed a flair of innovation to allow the organisation to work smarter and not harder.Learn TV - Run cognitive services on IoT edge - 19th October 2020
On the 19th October at 1PM PDT, 9PM BST, Marko Paloski, a Microsoft Learn Student Ambassador from Ss. Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje, North Macedonia, and Jim Bennett, a Cloud Advocate from Microsoft will livestream an in-depth walkthrough of how to run cognitive services on IoT Edge on Learn TV.
