Machine Learning: Finding pre-trained models for transfer learning

Online/Virtual Event

Abstract: Training models from scratch requires way too much data, time, and computing power (or money) to be a practical option. This is why transfer learning has become such a common practice: by starting with models trained on related problems, you are saving time and achieving good results with little data. Now, where do you […]
