Welcome to Workshop 1!

Workshop
In Progress

We are excited to welcome you to Workshop 1 of the Phase 1 hackathon.

Working with the group you formed earlier and the scenario you selected in the kickoff, you’ll now frame your ML problem and work through the end-to-end design of an AI/ML solution. You’ll continue developing this solution in Workshop 2. At the end of the hackathon, you’ll present your approach to your peers and instructor.

The areas you’ll work through​

As you design your solution, you’ll work through five connected areas:

  • ML Problem Framing

Define how success will be measured linking back to the business need.

  • Methodology and foundations How the work would be run and why that approach makes sense.
  • Technical strategy How the data, features, and models would work together.
  • Governance and ethics How risks, bias, transparency, and responsibility are addressed.
  • Execution and communication How the solution would be explained, delivered, and taken forward.
