Back to [[conference:committee:2015-proposals]]\\ \\ **Title**: Hands on Machine Learning\\ **Proposer**: [[2015:Burkhard Kloss]]\\ **Type**: Workshop\\ **Duration**: 360 mins\\ **Description**: \\ A hands on exploration of machine learning algorithms, starting with raw real world data sets and ending with working classification tools. If there's enough interest, we can work on one or more problems suggested by participants, otherwise we can work through some publicly available datasets.\\ \\ Will require laptop and some knowledge of Python (and ideally numpy)\\ \\ \\ \\
