Genomic ancestry inference with deep learning Google Cloud Big Data and Machine Learning Blog Google Cloud Platform

For the past several years, our goal at Google has been to play a critical role in bringing the benefits of AI to everyone. Machine learning is at the heart of that goal. In the area of life sciences -- or more specifically, the field of genomics -- we're using ML to derive insights from the human genome. Additionally, due to the scale of human genomic data, we need new techniques to process the datasets using machine learning and cloud computing. We'll examine an analytical technique for verifying the ancestry of a human DNA sample, and show you how to implement it as a system using Google Cloud Platform, TensorFlow and Google Cloud Machine Learning Engine.
