Experimenting with AWS Machine Learning for Classification

Posted on May 17, 2015 at 6:00pm 3 Comments 2 Likes

In this post, I'll explore the new AWS Machine Learning services.

The problem we are trying to solve is to classify auto accident severity given a set of features. I'll not go into further details of the data set and what classification algorithms,etc. here since the goal of this blog is to explore the new AWS Machine Learning service step by step.

In the next blog post, I'll explore another service: Microsoft Azure Machine…
