Platform Product Essentials
Delivering a platform solution for your business in a “clicks not code environment” seems easy. However the drag and drop interface of the technology isn’t the hard part. This is a course that will help you focus on the real difficulty in platform implementation, the structure of your business and its people. We will explore the benefits of low-code application development vs no-code development and how these tools are surpassing traditional development as the gold standard for custom applications. Our classes will showcase the low-code app development on the google platform and show you how to leverage LC/NC apis to leverage the functionality of tools like Zapier to connect your platform applications. All with little to no coding knowledge. This fun and engaging course will take a foundational look at the necessary elements to successfully transform your business with the right platform. Starting with establishing a foundational understanding of LCNC tools and taking a look at the landscape of platforms in the market. Participants will get a taste of how citizen developers and professional developers can collaborate to build productive low-code applications. We will then introduce the four pillars model as a tool that will provide clarity for all of the critical elements that are involved in your implementation. We will also highlight some real world use cases where LC/NC applications have been built successfully and where application development has failed. Historically, traditional implementation models utilize project management techniques to deliver solutions. Throw your PMBOK (project management body of knowledge) out the window. We are no longer running a project. Our platform is now a product and you are on the road to your digital transformation.

Структурирование проектов по машинному обучению
Из этого курса вы узнаете, как создавать успешные проекты по машинному обучению. Вы — лидер команды по внедрению ИИ или хотите им стать? Этот курс научит вас ставить правильные цели для своей команды. Многое из содержимого этого курса никогда не предлагалось в других образовательных проектах и наработано на основе моего опыта построения и внедрения многочисленных проектов. В настоящий курс также включены два тренажера, которые позволят вам отработать принятие решений в ходе организации проектов по машинному обучению. Тренажеры дадут вам опыт, на получение которого иначе могло бы потребоваться несколько лет работы в машинном обучении. После двух недель занятий вы: — поймете, как диагностировать ошибки в системах машинного обучения; — научитесь выделять наиболее перспективные направления для снижения количества ошибок; — получите знания о сложных настройках машинного обучения, таких как несоответствие наборов для обучения тестовым наборам, и сравнении показателей машины с показателями человеческого уровня; — узнаете, как применять сквозное обучение (end-to-end learning), перенос обучения (transfer learning) и многозадачное обучение (multi-task learning). Я видел, как команды специалистов впустую тратили месяцы и даже годы работы потому, что не понимали принципы, излагаемые в этом курсе. Я надеюсь, что этот двухнедельный курс сэкономит месяцы вашего времени. Он независим от других, и для его прохождения нужны только базовые знания в области машинного обучения. Это третий курс специализации «Глубокое обучение».
