Half-Day Training | Quant Finance | Machine Learning | Intermediate
The rapid progress in machine learning (ML) and the massive increase in data availability has enabled novel approaches to quantitative investment and increased the demand for the application of data science to develop discretionary and automated trading strategies.
This workshop covers popular ML use cases for the investment industry. In particular, it focuses on how ML fits into the workflow of developing a trading strategy, from the engineering of financial features to the development of an ML model that generates tradable signals, the backtesting of a trading strategy that acts on these signals and the evaluation of its performance.
We’ll use common Python data science and ML libraries as well as Zipline, Pyfolio, and Alphalens. The code examples will be presented using jupyter notebooks and are based on the second edition of my book ‘Machine Learning for Algorithmic Trading’…more details
Half-Day Training | Big Data | Beginner
This tutorial will introduce you to the wonderful world of Bayesian data science through the lens of probabilistic programming in Python. In the first half of the tutorial, we will introduce the key concepts of probability distributions via hacker statistics, hands-on simulation, and telling stories of the data-generation processes. We will also cover the basics of joint and conditional probability, Bayes’ rule, and Bayesian inference, all through hands-on coding and real-world examples. In the second half of the tutorial, we will use a series of models to build your familiarity with PyMC3, showcasing how to perform the foundational inference tasks of parameter estimation, group comparison (for example, A/B tests and hypothesis testing), and arbitrary curve regression…more details
Workshop | Deep Learning | Intermediate
Learn the basics of building a PyTorch model using a structured, incremental and from first principles approach. Find out why PyTorch is the fastest growing Deep Learning framework and how to make use of its capabilities: autograd, dynamic computation graph, model classes, data loaders and more.
The main goal of this session is to show you how PyTorch works: we will start with a simple and familiar example in Numpy and “torch” it! At the end of it, you should be able to understand PyTorch’s key components and how to assemble them together into a working model.
We will use Google Colab and work our way together into building a complete model in PyTorch. You should be comfortable using Jupyter notebooks, Numpy and, preferably, object oriented programming…more details
Tutorials | Machine Learning | Intermediate
Automated machine learning is the science of building machine learning models in a data-driven, efficient, and objective way. It replaces manual trial-and-error with automated, guided processes. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the current state of the art in hyperparameter optimization, pipeline construction, and neural architecture search. We will discuss model-free blackbox optimization methods, Bayesian optimization, as well as evolutionary and other techniques. We will also pay attention to meta-learning, i.e. learning how to build machine learning models based on prior experience. Moreover, we will give practical guidance on how to do meta-learning with OpenML, an online platform for sharing and reusing machine learning experiments, and how to perform automated pipeline construction with GAMA, a novel, research-oriented AutoML tool in Python…more details

Tutorial | Machine Learning | Beginner-Intermediate
Faces are a fundamental piece of photography, and building applications around them has never been easier with open-source libraries and pre-trained models. In this tutorial, we’ll help you understand some of the computer vision and machine learning techniques behind these applications. Then, we’ll use this knowledge to develop our own prototypes to tackle tasks such as face detection (e.g. digital cameras), recognition (e.g. Facebook Photos), classification (e.g. identifying emotions), manipulation (e.g. Snapchat filters), and more…more details
Workshop | Machine Learning | Responsible AI | Beginner
In the days where we have autonomous cars, drones, and automated medical diagnostics, we want to learn more about how to interpret the decisions made by the machine learning models. Having such information we are able to debug the models and retrain it in the most efficient way.
This talk is dedicated to managers, developers and data scientists that want to learn how to interpret the decisions made by machine learning models. We explain the difference between white and black box models, the taxonomy of explainable models and approaches to XAI. Knowing XAI methods is especially useful in any regulated company.
We go through the basic methods like the regression methods, decision trees, ensemble methods, and end with more complex methods based on neural networks. In each example, we use a different data set for each example. Finally, we show how to use model agnostic methods to interpret it and the complexity of the interpretability of many neural networks…more details
