Validation and Machine Learning - Some thoughts on Deep Neural Networks

Lecture 1: Dr.Jorg Kientz

In this talk we outline the use of Machine Learning algorithms and their potential application. We focus on Deep Neural Networks. The aim is to outline different network architectures. Then, we wish to find a way of choosing the architecture that best fits from a model validation perspective. This approach is illustrated with examples.

Lecture 2: Ben Steiner

In this talk we will discuss the challenges of Deep learning and focus on the key aspects of Model Risk Management for Deep Learning and Alpha Strategies

The mobile advertising revolution is here.

This year, 3DAYS hit the road to educate every media buyer in America about how mobile is changing everything – from how we shop, to how we eat, to how we learn.

So far, we’ve spread the good word in New York City, DC, Philadelphia and Boston. And now we’re coming to you, Atlanta.

Join us for a day of killer keynotes, presentations and networking with peers and industry leaders who are shaking up the mobile advertising game. We’ve carefully crafted an incredible lineup of presenters who are prepared to arm you with new strategies, insights and know-how to take your mobile game to the next level.
