Topic

Automatic Data Science AI

Abstract

In a recent competition for predicting consumer credit risk, AutoAI beat 90% of the participating data scientists. In this talk, I will share the methodologies behind the development of AutoAI and how it accelerates time to value with data science projects. Come listen how a combination of Data Science patterns are combined with years of research to develop a tool that can choose the best possible machine learning model automatically for you.
