You are invited to participate in a one-day workshop about the new Azure Machine Learning cloud service that makes creating, testing, evaluating and publishing predictive analytics easy - http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/machine-learning/. The event is free to attend and will be held at Microsoft Research Cambridge (UK) on 15 October 2014. It includes hands-on labs aimed at academic researchers interested in using machine learning for their projects and teaching data science courses.
* Please register online at http://aka.ms/AzureMLCam *
Participants will be provided with access to Azure Machine Learning during the day, and for three months afterwards to continue to develop their work (no credit card required). The cloud service is web browser-based, supports R code, has R and Python APIs, and can be used from participant's own laptops running Linux, Mac and/or Microsoft Windows.
The aim of the workshop is to provide you with:
- An understanding of Azure Machine Learning and how it can be used;
- Hands-on experience designing, building, training, evaluating and deploying predictive models;
- An opportunity to discuss you current and future needs with Microsoft and Microsoft Research.
Please pass this invitation on widely to colleagues, researchers, and PhD student who may be interested in using machine learning.
We are also soliciting proposals for Azure Machine Learning Awards for data science courses, research project, and shared workspaces for research collaboration. The next deadline is 15 November 2014, and then every two months - apply at http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/projects/azure/ml.aspx.
Microsoft Research is now supporting over 300 projects worldwide as part of its Azure for Research programme (www.azure4research.com) . You can also apply for one of our general bi-monthly awards, the next deadline for projects is 15th October 2014. Please submit your project proposals for up to 180,000 core hours of compute and 20TB of data over 12 months at http://www.microsoftazurepass.com/research.
We hope to see you in Cambridge, feel free to email me with any queries. Cheers,
