DESCRIPTION: On Wed\, Feb 12\, join ~180 devs at SF Python’s presentation
  night. \n\n 🖋Register here to attend: https://ti.to/sf-python/hypothes
 is-assumptions-and-bias \n\n 🔥 [NEW] Want do to improve the content at 
 SF Python? Please fill out our survey here \n\n Our generous sponsor Yelp 
 will provide pizza and drinks. \n\n PROGRAM \n\n Lightning talks \n\n \n E
 nabling Fastai Multi-GPU/DDP Training in Jupyter Notebook - Phillip Chu \n
  Python's best AI package - Cameron Smith \n Unittest AsyncMock - Pranay S
 uresh \n \n\n Short talk(~10 mins + Q&amp\;A) \n\n In-Database Machine Lea
 rning w PostgreSQL - Nitin Borwankar \n\n Machine learning pipelines invol
 ve multiple transformation steps very often involving cleaning and moving 
 massive amounts of data. In-database ML is a single stack ML approach wher
 e all pipeline steps happen inside the database\, minimizing massive data 
 movement. PostgreSQL is the only open source database that supports this p
 aradigm.\nThis talk describes how this process works with description of a
 rchitecture\, internals and live demo with well known data sets. We also t
 ouch upon additional Postgres features that support a NoETL paradigm\, red
 ucing end to end time and resources even further. \n\n Bio \n\n Nitin Borw
 ankar has been a user of Python since the days of Zope and has played almo
 st every role in the software development lifecycle over 25 years from QA 
 Engineer\, to App developer\, Database Architect\, Product Manager\, Engin
 eering Manager and Data Scientist. He is a founder and CTO of Numericc. \n
 \n Main talk (25 mins+Q&amp\;A) \n\n Removing Unfair Bias in Machine Learn
 ing - Upkar Lidder \n\n Extensive evidence has shown that AI can embed hum
 an and societal bias and deploy them at scale. And many algorithms are now
  being reexamined due to illegal bias. So how do you remove bias &amp\; di
 scrimination in the machine learning pipeline? In this talk you'll learn t
 he de-biasing techniques that can be implemented by using the open source 
 toolkit AI Fairness 360. \n\n AI Fairness 360 (AIF360) is an extensible\, 
 open source toolkit for measuring\, understanding\, and removing AI bias. 
 AIF360 is the first solution that brings together the most widely used bia
 s metrics\, bias mitigation algorithms\, and metric explainers from the to
 p AI fairness researchers across industry &amp\; academia. \n\n In this ta
 lk we’ll cover: \n\n · How to measure bias in your data sets &amp\; mod
 els\n· How to apply the fairness algorithms to reduce bias \n\n What you'
 ll learn: \n\n An introductory look at how bias &amp\; discrimination can 
 arise within modern machine learning techniques and the methods that can b
 e implemented to tackle those challenges. Learn how to evaluate the metric
 s using the open-source AI Fairness 360 Toolkit to check for fairness and 
 mitigate machine learning model bias. \n\n Bio \n\n Upkar Lidder is a Full
  Stack Developer and Data Wrangler at IBM with a decade of development exp
 erience in a variety of roles. He can be seen speaking at various conferen
 ces and participating in local tech groups and meetups. He is currently cu
 rious about magic behind Machine Learning and Deep Learning. Upkar went to
  graduate school in Canada and currently resides in the United States. \n\
