Agenda for AI/ML focused 80th Devclub.lv

  • Taivo Pungas from Veriff will give a talk “Machine Learning at Veriff: What Is Possible In A year?”.
    Building a great online identification service requires automating as many decisions as possible. At Veriff, we grew the team responsible for automatic decisions from 0 to 20 people in less than a year. In his presentation, Taivo will tell you about what we learned during this process, from hiring machine learning engineers to architectural decisions to data annotation, and much more.
