Skytree and CANFAR Host Educational Webinar on How to Perform Machine Learning or Advanced Analytics on Big (Astronomical) Data Sets

--()--Skytree:

WHAT:
A highly informative webinar where attendees learn how CANFAR (the Canadian Advanced Network for Astronomical Research), the world’s first cloud computing system for astronomy, is successfully using Skytree’s high performance and scalable machine learning system in the cloud. The combination enables astronomers to focus on their scientific analyses rather than hassling with implementing scalable complex algorithms and architecting complex infrastructure to handle the massive datasets.

WHO:

Presenters:

Alexander Gray — CTO and co-founder at Skytree
Nick Ball — Assistant Research Officer, Canadian Astronomy Data Centre

Attendees:

Anyone interested in learning about and performing machine learning or advanced analytics on big (astronomical) data sets.

WHEN:

Wednesday, May 30, 2012 from 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM (PDT); 4:00 PM (GMT)

WHY:
There is so much to discover in the astronomically big datasets that are (and will be) available. The challenge is how to effectively mine these massive datasets. In this webinar, learn how to work much more efficiently and effectively while mining valuable data. This webinar will explain how Skytree Server, the industry’s first extreme speed and scale analytics processing engine for big data, overcomes the intensive computational demands associated with machine learning by applying revolutionary algorithms and system design.
