Thursday 
Machine Learning is no longer exclusively reserved for Python or some of the more ‘hipster’ languages. Let's see what we can do while sticking to C#!
.NET
AI
Microsoft
Mobile

In this session, we’ll explore how to train Regression and Classification models using C# and ML.NET, and how to run those models in a .NET MAUI app, enabling offline AI analysis directly on a mobile device. We’ll also look at how to create an image classification model using Azure Custom Vision, and use it offline in our .NET MAUI app with the power of ONNX.

After this session, you’ll have a basic understanding of what Regression and Classification problems are, how to train and evaluate models with ML.NET and Azure Custom Vision and how to use these models locally in a .NET MAUI app.
