Below are the videos from the Boston TensorFlow meetup—sponsored and organized by Altoros on March 7, 2016.

 

Talk #1: Neural Networks with Google TensorFlow

In his session, Darshan Patel embraced computer vision tasks, convolution neural network’s (CNN) architecture, explaining how to implement it with TensorFlow, and TensorBoard graph visualization.

 

 

Talk #2: Transfer learning on TensorFlow in 30 minutes

Syed Tousif Ahmed of Alhold USA provided answers for the following questions:

  • What is transfer learning (strategies, use cases)?
  • How to collect data?
  • How to retrain a model in TensorFlow?

 

 

Fireside chat

Later on, Renat Khasanshyn interviewed Darshan Patel and Syed Tousif Ahmed on the following aspects:

  • What does attract you most in TensorFlow?
  • How can TensorFlow make a difference as a library in the next 5–10 years?
  • Pieces of advice for those getting started with TensorFlow
