Create your first model with Azure Custom Vision and Python
In this article I want to share with you how you can create a classification model using the Azure Custom Vision service with the Python SDK.
Create a simpsons classifier with Azure Machine learning Service
In this blogpost I want to dive into how you can create a Simpson Classification model from scratch using Azure Machine Learning service.
Intelligent Cloud Conference 2019
In this session we take a deep-dive into the DevOps process that comes with Azure Machine Learning service, a cloud service that you can use to track as you build, train, deploy and manage models. We zoom into how the data science process can be made traceable and deploy the model with Azure DevOps to a Kubernetes cluster.
TechDays Finland
In this session we do a deep dive into the A.I. stack that Microsoft has to offer. We start with pre-trained Cognitive services like Computer Vision, Anomaly Detection and Speaker recognition. And move on to the more advanced tooling like Machine Learning Studio and Azure Machine Learning Services.

Custom Vision on the Raspberry Pi (ONNX & Windows IoT)
Custom vision in the cloud that can be consumed through an API is available now for quite some time, but did you know that you can also export the models you create in the Cloud and run them localy on your desktop or even on a small device like a the Raspberry Pi?
Serverless AI with Custom Vision & Azure Functions
After using the Microsoft Custom Vision API for some time now it was time to explore the possibilities a bit more. I decided to find out if it was possible to run a exported model from the Custom Vision Service in an Azure Function and create Serverless AI
Azure Function x64 dev setup
Last week I needed an Azure Function to be compiled for the x64 platform because of a dependency. It was a long google search and a lot of try and fail. Looking back it was actually very very easy. Here a summary of what I did to get it working on my local machine using Visual Studio 2017 on Windows 10
Create an Intelligent Chatbot for Cortana
Voice interfaces are the new thing around and also Microsoft has brought us Cortana. I have a harman/kardon speaker with Cortana on my desk for quite sometime now and wanted to see how I can create something for this device
Object detection with Microsoft Custom Vision
Last year Custom Vision was released to classify your own objects on images. Yesterday at Build 2018 a new Project Type was added to enable Object Detection in images. In this blog we are going to take a closer look and see what this new feature can do.
Microsoft Machine Learning Studio 101 - A used car price predictor
I have been playing around with Microsoft Cognitive services for some time now, seeing what they are capable of and how easy it is to use them in your applications is stunning. But what is underneath these API's, how can I train my own model and make it available through an API?
Speech to Text in an Azure Function
Sometimes it is just easier to record some information instead of typing it. Recordings are great, you can just sit back and listen to them, but sometimes you just want to scan over the text or maybe your environment is not the best for listening to audio. I recently had a case like that and I made an Azure Function that can process spoken text into written text and store this output in an Azure Table.
Beta testing Tendocare.ai in Uganda
In the beginning of February we went as a team to Uganda to beta-test the tendocare.ai platform. We joined the medical team into the field visiting some remote villages in Uganda and started using the app.
Microsoft Speaker Recognition API
Gone are the days that only a password is enough protection for your accounts. But who can remember all the different passwords for all the different websites you login to. The time is there to rethink how authenticating can be more secure and a better user experience.
