Sean Saito

Sean Saito is the youngest ever Machine Learning Developer at SAP and the first bachelor hired for the position. He currently researches and develops machine learning algorithms that automate financial processes. He graduated from Yale-NUS College in 2017 with a Bachelor of Science degree (with Honours), where he explored unsupervised feature extraction for his thesis. Having a profound interest in hackathons, Sean represented Singapore during Data Science Game 2016, the largest student data science competition. Before attending university in Singapore, Sean grew up in Tokyo, Los Angeles, and Boston.

Advantages of NAS


The biggest advantage of NAS is that one does not need to spend copious amounts of time designing a neural network for a particular problem. This also means that those who are not data scientists can also create machine learning agents as long as they can prepare data. In fact, Google has already productized this framework as Cloud AutoML, which allows anyone to train customized machine learning models with minimum effort. According to Google, Cloud AutoML provides the following benefits:

  • Users only need to interact with a simple GUI to create machine learning models.
  • Users can have Cloud AutoML annotate their own datasets if they are not labeled already. This is similar to Amazon's Mechanical Turk service.
  • Models generated by Cloud AutoML are guaranteed to have high accuracy and fast performance.
  • Easy end-to-end pipeline for uploading data, training and validating the model, deploying the model, and creating a REST endpoint for fetching predictions.

Currently, Cloud AutoML...
