Hello! I am Thomas Capelle (cape), Machine Learning engineer at Weights & Biases working on the AI Applied Team. I am responsible for keeping the wandb/examples repository live and up to date. I also build content on ML-OPS, application of wandb to industry and fun deep learning in general. Previously I was using deep learning to solve short term forecasting for solar energy at Steady Sun. I have a background in Urban Planning, Combinatorial Optimization, Transportation Economics and Applied Math.
I love contributing to OSS and the ML community!
