JavaScript is the most popular language in the world right now. It’s already used practically everywhere, and the good news is that you can also efficiently use JavaScript for deep learning and machine learning tasks. In this event, we will teach you how to get started with javascript for machine learning.
Agenda:

[9:30 - 10:15am] Tech talk: Machine Learning in JavaScript, by Jason Mayes

Discover how to achieve super powers by embracing machine learning in JavaScript using TensorFlow.js in the browser and beyond in this speedy 30 minute talk. Get inspired through a whole bunch of creative prototypes that push the boundaries of what is possible in the modern web browser and then take your own first steps with machine learning in minutes. By the end of the talk everyone will understand how to recognize an object of their choice which could then be used in any creative way you can imagine. Familiarity with JavaScript is assumed, but no background in machine learning is required. Come take your first steps with TensorFlow.js!

[10:15 - 11:30am] Workshop: Build real time image classifier with tensorflow.js. by Rising Odegua

In this tutorial, I’m going to introduce you the efficient library for doing Deep Learning in Javascript (Tensorflow.js). You will be showed how to install it, via client-side and server-side, and how to build a gesture recognication application using Transfer learning.
