This tutorial will offer an in-depth experience of methods and tools for the Machine Learning practitioner through a selection of advanced features of scikit-learn and related projects. This tutorial targets developers already familiar with machine learning concepts and scikit-learn who wish to learn how to apply those tools on larger datasets using multicore machines or distributed clusters.

The goal of this tutorial is to give the attendee a first experience of machine learning tools applied to practical software engineering tasks such as language detection of tweets, topic classification of web pages, sentiment analysis of customer products reviews and facial recognition in pictures from the web or from your own webcam.
