A Complete Tutorial on Ridge and Lasso Regression in Python

@machinelearnbot

When we talk about Regression, we often end up discussing Linear and Logistics Regression. Do you know there are 7 types of Regressions? Linear and logistic regression is just the most loved members from the family of regressions. Last week, I saw a recorded talk at NYC Data Science Academy from Owen Zhang, current Kaggle rank 3 and Chief Product Officer at DataRobot. He said, 'if you are using regression without regularization, you have to be very special!'. I hope you get what a person of his stature referred to. I understood it very well and decided to explore regularization techniques in detail. In this article, I have explained the complex science behind'Ridge Regression' and'Lasso Regression' which are the most fundamental regularization techniques, sadly still not used by many.


How linguistic descriptions of data can help to the teaching-learning process in higher education, case of study: artificial intelligence

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence is a central topic in the computer science curriculum. From the year 2011 a project-based learning methodology based on computer games has been designed and implemented into the intelligence artificial course at the University of the Bio-Bio. The project aims to develop software-controlled agents (bots) which are programmed by using heuristic algorithms seen during the course. This methodology allows us to obtain good learning results, however several challenges have been founded during its implementation. In this paper we show how linguistic descriptions of data can help to provide students and teachers with technical and personalized feedback about the learned algorithms. Algorithm behavior profile and a new Turing test for computer games bots based on linguistic modelling of complex phenomena are also proposed in order to deal with such challenges. In order to show and explore the possibilities of this new technology, a web platform has been designed and implemented by one of authors and its incorporation in the process of assessment allows us to improve the teaching learning process.


A scalable Keras deep learning REST API - PyImageSearch

@machinelearnbot

In today's blog post we are going to create a deep learning REST API that wraps a Keras model in an efficient, scalable manner. Our Keras deep learning REST API will be capable of batch processing images, scaling to multiple machines (including multiple web servers and Redis instances), and round-robin scheduling when placed behind a load balancer. For a more simple Keras deep learning REST API, please refer to this guest post I did on the official Keras.io To learn how to create your own scalable Keras deep learning REST API, just keep reading! Today's tutorial is broken into multiple parts. We'll start with a brief discussion of the Redis data store and how it can be used to facilitate message queuing and message brokering.


Neural Network Algorithms - Learn How To Train ANN

@machinelearnbot

Learning of neural network takes place on the basis of a sample of the population under study. During the course of learning, compare the value delivered by output unit with actual value. After that adjust the weights of all units so to improve the prediction. There are many Neural Network Algorithms are available for training Artificial Neural Network. We use the gradient descent algorithm to find the local smallest of a function.


International Leadership and Organizational Behavior Coursera

@machinelearnbot

About this course: Leaders in business and non-profit organizations increasingly work across national borders and in multi-cultural environments. You may work regularly with customers or suppliers abroad, or be part of a globally dispersed cross-functional team, or an expatriate manager on an international assignment. You may be a member of a global online community, or a development aid worker collaborating with an international network of partner organizations. In all of these contexts, your effectiveness as a leader depends on how well you understand and are able to manage individual and collective behaviors in an intercultural context. In this course – together with a team of Bocconi expert faculty and Bocconi alumni – we'll explore the theory and practice of international and intercultural leadership and organizational behavior.


How to Detect if Numbers are Random or Not

@machinelearnbot

In this article, you will learn some modern techniques to detect whether a sequence appears as random or not, whether it satisfies the central limit theorem (CLT) or not -- and what the limiting distribution is if CLT does not apply -- as well as some tricks to detect abnormalities. Detecting lack of randomness is also referred to as signal versus noise detection, or pattern recognition. It leads to the exploration of time series with massive, large-scale (long term) auto-correlation structure, as well as model-free, data-driven statistical testing. No statistical knowledge is required: we will discuss deep results that can be expressed in simple English. Most of the testing involved here uses big data (more than a billion computations) and data science, to the point that we reached the accuracy limits of our machines.


Machine Learning for Apps Udemy

Machine Learning K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) Algorithm In Python

#artificialintelligence

Now, let us understand the implementation of K-Nearest Neighbors in Python in creating a trading strategy. We will start by importing the necessary libraries. We will import the pandas libraries to use the features of its powerful dataframe. We will import the numpy libraries for scientific calculation. Next, we will import the matplotlib.pyplot


A Gentle Introduction to Linear Algebra - Machine Learning Mastery

#artificialintelligence

Linear algebra is a field of mathematics that is universally agreed to be a prerequisite to a deeper understanding of machine learning. Although linear algebra is a large field with many esoteric theories and findings, the nuts and bolts tools and notations taken from the field are practical for machine learning practitioners. With a solid foundation of what linear algebra is, it is possible to focus on just the good or relevant parts. In this tutorial, you will discover what exactly linear algebra is from a machine learning perspective. A Gentle Introduction to Linear Algebra Photo by Steve Corey, some rights reserved.


Python Data Science Handbook- An essential handbook for Python enthusiasts

@machinelearnbot

The book, written by Jake VanderPlas and published by O'Reilly, does not claim to be something which will be used to someone who wants to get into the field from the start. As the name suggests, the Handbook is targeted towards the working professionals and researchers to help them with the common usages of the libraries and methods in Python related to the field of Data Science. The readers will find it an ideal reference, which will help them tackle day- to- day issues: manipulating, transforming, cleaning, visualizing data, or in building statistical or machine learning models for better forecasting. In simple words, this is a must- have a reference for scientific and statistical computing in Python adepts, and also for those who have a command over the subject but in other languages, and want to implement the same in Python.
