This will be an interactive workshop with Wolff doing some coding, presenting some slides and hanging around to see the progress of individuals.

You’re highly recommended (we try to avoid the word “required”) to bring yourself a laptop so that you can follow better by doing some hands-on exercises. To make the whole event more efficient, we encourage you to follow the instructions as at: https://github.com/random-forests/tensorflow-workshop so you do not need to download it at the venue.
