Online Learning for Mixture of Multivariate Hawkes Processes
Ghassemi, Mohsen, Dalmasso, Niccolò, Lamba, Simran, Potluru, Vamsi K., Shah, Sameena, Balch, Tucker, Veloso, Manuela
Online learning of Hawkes processes has received increasing attention in the last couple of years especially for modeling a network of actors. However, these works typically either model the rich interaction between the events or the latent cluster of the actors or the network structure between the actors. We propose to model the latent structure of the network of actors as well as their rich interaction across events for real-world settings of medical and financial applications.
Training Latent Variable Models with Auto-encoding Variational Bayes: A Tutorial
Auto-encoding Variational Bayes (AEVB) is a powerful and general algorithm for fitting latent variable models (a promising direction for unsupervised learning), and is well-known for training the Variational Auto-Encoder (VAE). In this tutorial, we focus on motivating AEVB from the classic Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm, as opposed to from deterministic auto-encoders. Though natural and somewhat self-evident, the connection between EM and AEVB is not emphasized in the recent deep learning literature, and we believe that emphasizing this connection can improve the community's understanding of AEVB. In particular, we find it especially helpful to view (1) optimizing the evidence lower bound (ELBO) with respect to inference parameters as approximate E-step and (2) optimizing ELBO with respect to generative parameters as approximate M-step; doing both simultaneously as in AEVB is then simply tightening and pushing up ELBO at the same time. We discuss how approximate E-step can be interpreted as performing variational inference. Important concepts such as amortization and the reparametrization trick are discussed in great detail. Finally, we derive from scratch the AEVB training procedures of a non-deep and several deep latent variable models, including VAE, Conditional VAE, Gaussian Mixture VAE and Variational RNN. It is our hope that readers would recognize AEVB as a general algorithm that can be used to fit a wide range of latent variable models (not just VAE), and apply AEVB to such models that arise in their own fields of research. PyTorch code for all included models are publicly available.

Real-World Machine Learning--PyTorch and Monai for Healthcare Imaging
To improve your skills in machine learning and artificial intelligence, it is important to solve real-world problems. What better problem to solve then helping to save people's lives? Machine learning is being used more and more in the field of healthcare. PyTorch and Monai can be used to discover tumors in livers. We just published a course on the freeCodeCamp.org
introduction-to-pytorch-crash-course.html
In this course, I will explain in a practical and intuitive way how PyTorch works. We will go beyond the use of the API which will allow you to continue your journey in machine learning and/or differentiable programming with more confidence. In the first part, we will implement (in Python, from scratch) our own differentiable programming framework, which will be very similar to PyTorch. This will allow you to understand how PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX, etc. work. Then, we will focus on PyTorch and see the basic tensor operations, the calculation of gradients and the use of graphics cards (GPUs).
Data Science Academy Camp 2: Down the Rabbit Hole of Machine Learning
Camp 2 Data Science Academy (DSA) was held online from August 8, 2022 to August 13, 2022 via the Zoom platform. This camp was mentored by Rendi Chevi, an AI Research Scientist from kata.ai. Curious about the excitement of Camp 2 of DSA? Let's see what it's all about! The first day began with remarks from the MCs, followed by a presentation by Rendi Chevi about "Introduction to Machine Learning". First of all, Rendi gave an overview of Machine Learning along with a Roadmap of what will be discussed during the second camp of DSA, then Rendi gave a Venn Diagram of the relationship between Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence which gave rise to a sub-section, namely Deep Learning.

Supervised machine learning is the underlying method behind a large part of this.
Artificial Intelligence: Reinforcement Learning in Python
When people talk about artificial intelligence, they usually don't mean supervised and unsupervised machine learning. These tasks are pretty trivial compared to what we think of AIs doing - playing chess and Go, driving cars, and beating video games at a superhuman level. Reinforcement learning has recently become popular for doing all of that and more. Much like deep learning, a lot of the theory was discovered in the 70s and 80s but it hasn't been until recently that we've been able to observe first hand the amazing results that are possible. In 2016 we saw Google's AlphaGo beat the world Champion in Go.

Genetic Algorithm: A to Z with Combinatorial Problems
This is one of the most applied courses on Genetic Algorithms (GA), which presents an integrated framework to solve real-world optimization problems in the most simple way. For the first time, we have presented a practical course in the domain of metaheuristics algorithms required for students, researchers and practitioners. Firstly, we will introduce the basic theory of GA, then implement the simplest version of GA, namely Binary GA, into Matlab, and then present the continuous version, real GA, of it. Therefore, the main focus will be on the Genetic Algorithm as the most well-regarded optimization algorithm in the literature. In the following sections, we will introduce some well-known operation research problems, including transportation problems, hub location problems (HLP), quadratic assignment problems and travelling salesman problems (TSP) and try to solve them via GA.
