Through interactive activities like drawing recognition\, fitting a simple prediction model\, and training an image classifier\, students will see how machine learning models make gues ses\, learn from mistakes\, and improve with better data. The workshop is designed for students who are curious about AI and want an accessible\, en gaging introduction to how modern machine learning works.\n\nSpeaker(s): E ric Yan\, Eimaan Saqib\, Fatemeh Shafiei Ardestani\n\nRoom: DC 2585\, Bldg : Davis Centre\, 200 University Ave W\, Waterloo\, Ontario\, Canada\, N2L 3G1 LOCATION:Room: DC 2585\, Bldg: Davis Centre\, 200 University Ave W\, Waterl oo\, Ontario\, Canada\, N2L 3G1 ORGANIZER:mohammad.salahuddin@ieee.org SEQUENCE:30 SUMMARY:How Machines Learn: From Examples to Models URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/560078 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p>In this hands-on workshop for Women in Com puter Science (WiCS) Conference\, students will explore how computers lear n from examples instead of being given every rule by hand.
