Starting Simple and Machine Learning in Meds

from Talking Machines Hosted by Talking Machines

In episode nine we talk with George Dahl, of the University of Toronto, about his work on the Merck molecular activity challenge on kaggle and speech recognition. George recently successfully defended his thesis at the end of March 2015. (Congrats George!) We learn about how networks and graphs can help us understand latent properties of relationships, and we take a listener question about just how you find the right algorithm to solve a problem (Spoiler: start simple.)
