In this workshop you will learn how to construct a densely connected convolutional neural network using Keras with a Tensorflow backend to classify spectrograms of audio files of 1 of n speakers (golly, that's dense...).

In this workshop, you'll learn how to tell which of two people is speaking - namely Stephen Colbert or Conan O'Brien - with neural networks.
The workshop is aimed at people who are interested in learning about machine learning.
Jupyter notebooks are an open-source web application that allows you to create and share documents that contain live code, equations, visualizations and explanatory text.
In this workshop we will use IBM Watson Studio to run a notebook. For this you will need an IBM Cloud account. The following steps will show you how sign up and get started. When you have the notebook up and running we will go through the notebook.

When you are signed up click
Create Resourceat the top of the Resources page. You can find the resources under the hamburger menu at the top left:
- Search for Watson Studio and click on the tile:
- Select the Lite plan and click
Create. - Go back to the Resources list and click on your Watson Studio service and then click
Get Started.
- You should now be in Watson Studio.
- Create a new project by clicking on
Get StartedandNew Project, orCreate Project - Give your Project a name.
- Select an Object Storage from the drop-down menu or create a new one for free. This is used to store the notebooks and data. Do not forget to click refresh when returning to the Project page.
