Following from my recent article on Machine Learning with Scikit Learn, I decided to experiment with the library that is most loved by developers today: TensorFlow. Similar to Scikit Learn, this post walks through a simple example of TensorFlow to categorise handwritten digits.

Machine learning (ML) has become an increasingly popular field of Computer Science. In the past few years I've found myself working with ML to categorise large sets of data, and Scikit Learn for Python has proved itself to be exceptionally good for the task. This post walks through a simple example of Scikit Learn to categorise handwritten digits.

First introduced to me as “upside-down recursion”, dynamic programming is a technique used to write efficient algorithms to solve a wide range of problems, often replacing recursive approaches. Having met many examples in the past few years, this post explores three applications I’ve seen for the benefit of those new to the technique.

Following the success of Scott Logic's first Bugathon in Newcastle last March, members of the Edinburgh and Newcastle teams grouped together to organise another Bugathon at Heriot-Watt University's Edinburgh campus. Held on Wednesday, October 18th, this post gives an insight into the work carried out by Scott Logic to prepare and run the event.
