ITS provides the ai-service which offers AI/Deep Learning capabilities to researchers using IBM’s Watson Machine Learning-Accelerator (WML-A) platform. The platform provides a web interface which allows users to start their AI/machine learning work with lesser effort. There are also pre-built pipelines for Object Classification, Object Detection and Vector Output.

This session serves as an introduction of WML-A. Including an overview of its features, such as elastic distributed training, optimizing hyper-parameters, how to run elastic distributed inference and how to bring your own frameworks onto the WML-A platform.
