Each training runs for 8-10 hours over the span of two or five consecutive days where each session builds upon the last, providing in-depth exploration of specific topics. These intensive learning experiences combine theoretical foundations with practical applications, allowing participants to develop comprehensive understanding and skills. Each participant must bring their own laptop to be able to develop and apply the applications presented. Instructor: Dr. Vinod Ahuja Course Description:In this advanced training, participants will learn to design and implement machine learning solutions using modern AI platforms. They will go from data preprocessing to model evaluation and deployment through a guided project. Learning Outcomes: - Design end-to-end ML pipelines- Implement supervised learning models- Evaluate and tune model performance- Deploy machine learning solutions using standard tools Dates/times:- June 16, 2025 (2:00 PM - 4:00 PM)- June 17, 2025 (2:00 PM - 4:00 PM)- June 18, 2025 (2:00 PM - 4:00 PM)- June 19, 2025 (2:00 PM - 4:00 PM)- June 20, 2025 (2:00 PM - 4:00 PM)Hosted by: Dendritic InstituteAdditional Information can be found at: https://getinvolved.fgcu.edu/event/11246632
