Learn how to use Azure Maps (aka.ms/MapsTechCommunity) to analyze a catchment area around a retail store. ShiSh Shridhar, Principal PM in the Azure IoT Team , who spent 15 years on the Microsoft Industry Retail team, will demo how to build a catchment analysis for a café in downtown Seattle. You will see how Azure Maps can pull in data on locations, competitors, traffic, and public transit through Microsoft partnerships with TomTom and Moovit. Azure Maps also ingests data from any data provider including companies that offer human mobility data. You'll see how a catchment analysis can help a retailer analyze business disruptors, decide where best to open a store, or identify opportunities for expanding business.

Understanding what your AI models are doing is super important both from a functional as well as ethical aspects. In this episode we will discuss what it means to develop AI in a transparent way. Mehrnoosh introduces an awesome interpretability toolkit which enables you to use different state-of-the-art interpretability methods to explain your models decisions. By using this toolkit during the training phase of the AI development cycle, you can use the interpretability output of a model to verify hypotheses and build trust with stakeholders. You can also use the insights for debugging, validating model behavior, and to check for bias. The toolkit can even be used at inference time to explain the predictions of a deployed model to the end users.
