From Zero to Hero - Intro to Python AI Workshop

Image of Python AI Workshop

This 2-hour technical workshop’s mission is to introduce the concepts of Computer Vision to students interested in Machine Learning, looking to explore avenues into the AI field! The event will begin with a brief introduction to ML and the different applications of neural networks, followed by a deep-dive into Computer Vision. Students will then get a chance to train their own neural network that detects and classifies different images in a binary classification problem.
