In this ProcessMiner University podcast episode, Tom Tulloch
chats with Dr. Chitta Ranjan, Director of Science at ProcessMiner,
about his early life and education, what inspired him to write his
book, "Understanding Deep Learning -
Application in Rare Event Prediction," and the role deep
learning plays in the evolution of artificial intelligence.
Those who know Dr. Ranjan, know he has a keen ability to take
complex ideas and simplify them for all to understand... something
he talks about during this session.
Fun fact: Throughout his experience writing this book, Dr. Ranjan
became an unexpected expert chef, which he also delves into during
this talk.
Listeners will walk away feeling inspired, motivated to learn
something new, and maybe a little hungry.
