Biography
David Burke has worked professionally with machine learning for the past 9 years. He has been part of teams that successfully applied machine learning techniques both in the online and TV advertising domains at Admeta/WideOrbit and is now applying his knowledge to problems in the information retrieval domain at Meltwater. David has previously presented talks in several international workshops and conferences and more recently (February 2017) hosted a machine learning meetup at WideOrbit’s Gothenburg office. Machine learning in information retrieval is an exciting area and one that Meltwater want to be at the forefront of. This talk will present knowledge on what we are doing on one specific project, but with potentially several more ML projects in the pipeline, we see Meltwater becoming an active participant in the Gothenburg machine learning community. We want to share our problems and solutions in order to generate discussions, build relationships and continuously learn and improve in what we do.
