We had the annual ML conference in our home town Charlottesville, VA. After an astounding success in the first ever major data conference last year, Charlottesville had the honor of again hosting some of the major data & analytics thought leaders in the mid-Atlantic region. The annual Applied Machine Learning Conference convenes researchers, entrepreneurs, and practitioners who use big data and machine learning applications for a day of presentations and flash talks.

At the sold-out 2018 conference, speakers presented findings in everything from “Social Bias in Machine Learning” to “An Introduction to Wikidata”. Particularly entertaining was the advances in graphics computing and image analytics by David Luebke, VP Graphics research from Nvidia.
