My interest in ml stems back to 2014 when I started reading articles about it on Hacker News. I simply found the idea of teaching machines stuff by looking at data appealing. At the time I wasn't even a professional developer, but a hobby coder who'd done a couple of small projects. So I began watching the first few chapters of Udacity's Supervised Learning course, while also reading all articles I came across on the subject. This gave me a little bit of conceptual understanding, though no practical skills.

In this Introduction to IoT Programming with JavaScript training course, expert author Patrick Catanzariti will teach you how to create interactions with connected devices and dashboards. This course is designed for users that already have experience with web development, JavaScript, and Node. You will start by learning how to build your first dashboard, including setting up a modular Node server and getting your server onto the web. From there, Patrick will show you how to set up an Arduino, display Arduino data, and go wireless with Arduino Yun and node-serialport. This video tutorial also covers Spark, Tessel, pairing Android and JavaScript using on{X}, and voice recognition with Wit.

This course is all about A/B testing. A/B testing is used everywhere. A/B testing is all about comparing things. If you're a data scientist, and you want to tell the rest of the company, "logo A is better than logo B", well you can't just say that without proving it using numbers and statistics. Traditional A/B testing has been around for a long time, and it's full of approximations and confusing definitions. In this course, while we will do traditional A/B testing in order to appreciate its complexity, what we will eventually get to is the Bayesian machine learning way of doing things.

The majority of employed data scientists gained their skills through self-learning or a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) rather than a traditional computer science degree, according to a survey from data scientist community Kaggle, which was acquired by Google Cloud earlier this year. Some 32% of full-time data scientists started learning machine learning or data science through a MOOC, while 27% said that they began picking up the needed skills on their own, the 2017 State of Data Science & Machine Learning Survey report found. Some 30% got their start in data science at a university, according to the survey of more than 16,000 people in the field. More than half of currently employed data scientists still use MOOCs for ongoing education and skillbuilding, the report found, demonstrating the potential of these courses for helping people gain real world skills. Data scientist took the no. 1 spot in Glassdoor's Best Jobs in America list in 2016 and 2017, and reports a median base salary of $110,000.

I've nearly finished the Coursera John Hopkins course on data science with R. It was pretty decent, some sections were definitely better than others. I know want to move on to a python data science course. I have used both Python and R for data science extensively, though I have probably used R more. I've been using Python for a couple years now along with many of the data analysis libraries such as Numpy, Pandas, Matplotlib, seaborn and their R equivalents. I was wondering if anyone knew what the best python data science course is?

The Κ-means clustering algorithm uses iterative refinement to produce a final result. The algorithm inputs are the number of clusters Κ and the data set. The data set is a collection of features for each data point. The algorithm starts with initial estimates for the Κ centroids, which can either be randomly generated or randomly selected from the dataset. Each centroid defines one of the clusters.

I recently completed all available material (as of October 25, 2017) for Andrew Ng's new deep learning course on Coursera. I found all 3 courses extremely useful and learned an incredible amount of practical knowledge from the instructor, Andrew Ng. Ng does an excellent job of filtering out the buzzwords and explaining the concepts in a clear and concise manner. For example, Ng makes it clear that supervised deep learning is nothing more than a multidimensional curve fitting procedure and that any other representational understandings, such as the common reference to the human biological nervous system, are loose at best. The specialization only requires basic linear algebra knowledge and basic programming knowledge in Python.

The new Open Images dataset gives us everything we need to train computer vision models, and just happens to be perfect for a demo! Tensorflow's Object Detection API and its ability to handle large volumes of data make it a perfect choice, so let's jump right in… Open Images is a dataset created by Google that has a significant number of freely licensed annotated images. Initially it contained only classification annotations, or in simpler terms it had labels that described what, but not where. After a major version update to 2.0, more annotations were added – of particular importance were the introduction of object detection annotations. These new annotations not only described what was in a picture, but where it was located, by defining the bounding box (bbox) coordinates for specific objects in an image.
