Natural Language Processing (NLP) is undergoing a renaissance, similar to Computer Vision a few years ago. We’ll dive into the industry standard workflow for text classification with deep learning, and how this compares to historical approaches.

In his previous work at Capital One and startups, he has built authorization fraud, insider threat, and legal discovery automation platforms. In each of these cases he’s lead a team of data scientists and data engineers to enable and elevate his client’s business workflow (and capture some amazing data).
