Building Blocks Skill Session

This event is free!


Sign up via the website to join the Skill Session by Building Blocks!


Last year, we visited Building Blocks at one of their offices in Tilburg (the other one is in Amsterdam). This year, they will visit us at the TU/e to organize a Skill Session! The company focusses on optimizing business decisions, mainly in the retail and insurance branch.


Building Block's Data Scientist Thomas will discuss the topic of Automated Machine Learning, a cool and state-of-the-art technique which is able to partly overtake the task of manually selecting models. Thomas will explain how the work is done by the algorithm now, which allows Building Blocks to deliver their solutions quicker and with higher predictive power!
