Using Machine Learning at Scale - insideBIGDATA

In this special guest feature, Peter Cnudde, VP of Engineering at Yahoo, provides a bird's eye view for the many ways that Yahoo is using machine learning at scale. This concept is driven by the irrational, yet popular notion that one day, machines will take over the jobs of humans. As Vice President of Engineering for Yahoo, Peter oversees the company's big data and machine learning platforms. He is particularly interested in large scale machine learning and its impact on our society. In the past, Peter has worked at several wireless telecommunications companies including Alcatel and RF Micro Devices.
