R-Ladies Dec Tutorial: Scalable Machine Learning in R & Python with H20!

R-Ladies London

R-Ladies London, the UK chapter of the international R-Ladies Global network, invites you to our Decmber Tutorial! As a non-profit org promoting gender diversity in the R community, our events are always FREE to attend. To be notified of future events, join our official <A HREF="https://www.meetup.com/rladies-london/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Meetup Group</A> and follow us on Twitter @RLadiesLondon!
Timings: talk starts at 6.15pm, ends 8pm 
Our speaker is <A HREF="http://www.stat.berkeley.edu/~ledell/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Dr. Erin LeDell</A>, fellow Co-founder of the R-Ladies Global community and an Organiser of R-Ladies San Francisco, who's stopping over in London to give this talk! She's a Statistician &amp; Machine Learning Scientist at <A HREF="http://www.h2o.ai/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">H2O.ai</A>, the company that produces the open source machine learning platform, <A HREF="https://github.com/h2oai/h2o-3" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">H2O</A>. She's also the author of a handful of machine learning related <A HREF="http://www.stat.berkeley.edu/~ledell/software.html" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">software packages</A>, including the <A HREF="https://github.com/h2oai/h2o-3/tree/master" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">h2oEnsemble</A>!  
The focus of this talk is scalable machine learning using the H2O <A HREF="http://www.h2o.ai/download/h2o/r" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">R</A> &amp; <A HREF="http://www.h2o.ai/download/h2o/python" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Python</A> packages. <A HREF="https://github.com/h2oai/h2o-3" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">H2O</A> is an open source, distributed machine learning platform designed for big data, with the added benefit that it's easy to use on a laptop (in addition to a multi-node Hadoop or Spark cluster). The core machine learning algorithms of H2O are implemented in high-performance Java, however, fully-featured APIs are available in R, Python, Scala, REST/JSON, and also through a web interface.    
R &amp; Python code with H2O machine learning code examples will be demo-ed live and are available on GitHub (<A HREF="https://github.com/h2oai/h2o-tutorials#r-tutorials" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://github.com/h2oai/h2o-tutorials#r-tutorials</A>) for attendees to follow along on their laptops.  
Since H2O's algorithm implementations are distributed, this allows the software to scale to very large datasets that may not fit into RAM on a single machine. H2O currently features distributed implementations of Generalized Linear Models, Gradient Boosting Machines, Random Forest, Deep Neural Nets, dimensionality reduction methods (PCA, GLRM), clustering algorithms (K-means), anomaly detection methods, among others. The ability to create stacked ensembles, or "Super Learners", from a collection of supervised base learners is provided via the <A HREF="https://github.com/h2oai/h2o-3/tree/master/h2o-r/ensemble" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">h2oEnsemble</A> R package. 
NOTE: the venue has NO public WiFi, only access for those with eduroam accounts. It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO ACCESS THE REQUIRED MATERIALS BEFOREHAND.
