Google machine learning gains Kaggle and more

Google has already carved out a niche for itself in machine learning with projects like TensorFlow and Google Brain. Now, it's adding data science provider Kaggle, which runs contests related to machine learning and provides services for data discovery and analysis, to the fold. The company also is moving ahead with other machine learning projects, including an API providing intelligence for video. Google Cloud is gaining access to Kaggle's community of more than 850,000 data scientists and vice versa. Kaggle and Google Cloud will continue to support machine learning training and deployment, while the community gets the capability to store and query large data sets.
