Building AI Applications on Google Cloud Platform

4+ Hours of Video Instruction

Overview

There is a rapid evolution occurring in machine learning with tools like AutoML that basically automate many of the tedious aspects of machine learning and allow developers to focus on getting results into production. Noah Gift illustrates just now to harness this technology and deploy it successfully on Google Cloud Platform, demonstrating for developers how to employ the current best practices and automated tools to create analytics applications that solve real-world problems.

Developers who want to take their Data Science skills to the next level and build AutoML applications in the Cloud will benefit from this unique course, as they learn how to use AutoML, Big Query, Python, and Google App Engine to create sophisticated AI.

Description

Cloud AutoML is a suite of machine learning products that enables developers with limited machine learning expertise to train high-quality models specific to their business needs. It relies on Google’s state-of-the-art transfer learning and neural architecture search technology. Developers use Cloud AutoML’s graphical user interface to train, evaluate, improve, and deploy models based on their data.

This LiveLesson covers programming components essential to the development of AI and Analytics applications. The focus is on building real-world software engineering applications on the Google Cloud Platform. Several emerging technologies are used to demonstrate the process, including AutoML and Google BigQuery. The Python language is used throughout the course, as Python is becoming the de facto standard language for AI application development in the cloud.
