Applied Machine Learning and Deep Learning with R

@machinelearnbot

In this course, we will examine in detail the R software, which is the most popular statistical programming language of recent years. You will start with exploring different learning methods, clustering, classification, model evaluation methods and performance metrics. From there, you will dive into the general structure of the clustering algorithms and develop applications in the R environment by using clustering and classification algorithms for real-life problems Next, you will learn to use general definitions about artificial neural networks, and the concept of deep learning will be introduced. The elements of deep learning neural networks, types of deep learning networks, frameworks used for deep learning applications will be addressed and applications will be done with R TensorFlow package. Finally, you will dive into developing machine learning applications with SparkR, and learn to make distributed jobs on SparkR.


Machine Trading Analysis with R Udemy

@machinelearnbot

It explores main concepts from basic to expert level which can help you achieve better grades, develop your academic career, apply your knowledge at work or do your research as experienced investor. Learning machine trading analysis is indispensable for finance careers in areas such as computational finance research, computational finance development, and computational finance trading mainly within investment banks and hedge funds. It is also essential for academic careers in computational finance. And it is necessary for experienced investors computational finance trading research and development. But as learning curve can become steep as complexity grows, this course helps by leading you step by step using S&P 500 Index ETF prices historical data for back-testing to achieve greater effectiveness.


Reality check on AI โ€“ DXC Blogs

#artificialintelligence

It's too early to worry about a sentient AI apocalypse. The reality is that we know very little about how the human brain works -- which means we know even less about how to build a computer that works just like the human brain. For very specific tasks, AI tends to make rapid progress until it matches human-level performance; then progress tends to slow down. So despite fears of an AI dystopia, the technology is still very limited compared to human intelligence. A more practical problem in AI is figuring out good ways for engineers and product managers to communicate a shared vision for how to actually use AI in the enterprise.


Data Science: Natural Language Processing (NLP) in Python

@machinelearnbot

In this course you will build MULTIPLE practical systems using natural language processing, or NLP - the branch of machine learning and data science that deals with text and speech. This course is not part of my deep learning series, so it doesn't contain any hard math - just straight up coding in Python. All the materials for this course are FREE. After a brief discussion about what NLP is and what it can do, we will begin building very useful stuff. The first thing we'll build is a spam detector.


How to Win a Data Science Competition: Learn from Top Kagglers Coursera

@machinelearnbot

About this course: If you want to break into competitive data science, then this course is for you! Participating in predictive modelling competitions can help you gain practical experience, improve and harness your data modelling skills in various domains such as credit, insurance, marketing, natural language processing, sales' forecasting and computer vision to name a few. At the same time you get to do it in a competitive context against thousands of participants where each one tries to build the most predictive algorithm. Pushing each other to the limit can result in better performance and smaller prediction errors. Being able to achieve high ranks consistently can help you accelerate your career in data science.


Reverse curriculum generation for reinforcement learning agents

Robohub

Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a powerful technique capable of solving complex tasks such as locomotion, Atari games, racing games, and robotic manipulation tasks, all through training an agent to optimize behaviors over a reward function. There are many tasks, however, for which it is hard to design a reward function that is both easy to train and that yields the desired behavior once optimized. Suppose we want a robotic arm to learn how to place a ring onto a peg. The most natural reward function would be for an agent to receive a reward of 1 at the desired end configuration and 0 everywhere else. However, the required motion for this taskโ€“to align the ring at the top of the peg and then slide it to the bottomโ€“is impractical to learn under such a binary reward, because the usual random exploration of our initial policy is unlikely to ever reach the goal, as seen in Video 1a.


Deep Dive into Statistical Modeling with R Udemy

@machinelearnbot

R is a data analysis tool, graphical environment, and programming language. Without any prior experience in programming or statistical software, this video tutorial will help you quickly become a knowledgeable user of R. Now is the time to take control of your data and start producing superior statistical analysis with R. In this video tutorial, you will start with a quick refresher on programming in R. You will learn to set up your R development environment, as well as work on a few simple R programs. After that you will dive right into working with different types of data structures in R, such as vectors, lists, matrices, etc. You will explore how to import and export data for your data analysis project, and also connect to databases such as PostgreSQL.


Robotics: Computational Motion Planning Coursera

#artificialintelligence

About this course: Robotic systems typically include three components: a mechanism which is capable of exerting forces and torques on the environment, a perception system for sensing the world and a decision and control system which modulates the robot's behavior to achieve the desired ends. In this course we will consider the problem of how a robot decides what to do to achieve its goals. This problem is often referred to as Motion Planning and it has been formulated in various ways to model different situations. You will learn some of the most common approaches to addressing this problem including graph-based methods, randomized planners and artificial potential fields. Throughout the course, we will discuss the aspects of the problem that make planning challenging.


Artificial Intelligence II - Neural Networks in Java

@machinelearnbot

This course is about artificial neural networks. Artificial intelligence and machine learning are getting more and more popular nowadays. In the beginning, other techniques such as Support Vector Machines outperformed neural networks, but in the 21th century neural networks again gain popularity. In spite of the slow training procedure, neural networks can be very powerful. In the first part of the course you will learn about the theoretical background of neural networks, later you will learn how to implement them.
