O'Reilly Network Articles and WeblogsIts time for my favorite conference of the year! ETech kicked off this morning to some awesome keynotes and moved straight into some killer sessions. The first session I attended was Peter Norvig's "How billions of examples lead to better models of images and text" presentation.
Before I tell you about what Peter shared with us, its important to mention that Peter works for Google and thus has access to massive amounts of data and images that most of us can't even conceive. And having access to these vast data stores is the premise for his presentation.
