Evaluating Models: Get Ready to ROC
Introducing the ROC curve and its use in Azure ML.
This session introduces the Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curve and explains its strengths and
weaknesses in evaluating models. We will then show the use of ROC curves and performance measures used in Azure Machine Learning Studio.

Inside the classic machine learning algorithms
Algorithms like Neural Nets, Deep Learning, SVM and KNN are dominating the Machine Learning world. You don’t need to know the maths behind them but you do need to know how they work in order to use them effectively. This talk will explain just that.

Analytics Master Class-exploiting exotic patterns in data
There are some little-known but very useful ways of extracting information from data.
This session will cover:
• Monte Carlo simulations
• Nyquist’s Theorem
• Simpson’s paradox
• Benford’s Law
These will rock your world (they certainly rocked mine).
MDX and DAX-compare and contrast
This talk looks at MDX and DAX, examining their similarities and differences. It won’t turn you into an expert in either but it will help you to decide, given your particular career plans, if either or both are worth learning.
