Recurring Events

Meeting
Josh Clayton will be presenting "Rapid prototyping with Blueprint and Viewaide".
Randall Thomas from Engine Yard will be presenting "Artificial stupidity, adding smarts to yer kode with a little machine learning"
Machine Learning and data mining have long been a "black art" - partially because it sits squarely between various rigorous disciplines (statistics, linear algebra, analysis, geometry) and primarily because everyone who studies it either has a Ph.D or is working on one. This exploration will cover a basic (and gentle) introduction to machine learning, a brief overview of what sort of problems fit well into the machine learning bag, and a few examples of how we might integrate machine learning into a project.
