LATENT SPACE REPRESENTATION: A HANDS-ON TUTORIAL ON AUTOENCODERS IN TENSORFLOW
This is a part-1 of the series of tutorials that I am writing on unsupervised/self-supervised learning using deep neural networks. In this tutorial, the focus would be on latent space implementation using autoencoder architecture and its visualization using t-SNE embedding. Before we delve into code, lets define some important concepts which we will encounter throughout the tutorial. The real-world data is often redundant with high dimensions. This poses challenges not only for computational efficiency but also hinders the modelling of the representation.
Fundamentals of Machine Learning for Healthcare
Machine learning and artificial intelligence hold the potential to transform healthcare and open up a world of incredible promise. But we will never realize the potential of these technologies unless all stakeholders have basic competencies in both healthcare and machine learning concepts and principles. This course will introduce the fundamental concepts and principles of machine learning as it applies to medicine and healthcare. We will explore machine learning approaches, medical use cases, metrics unique to healthcare, as well as best practices for designing, building, and evaluating machine learning applications in healthcare. The course will empower those with non-engineering backgrounds in healthcare, health policy, pharmaceutical development, as well as data science with the knowledge to critically evaluate and use these technologies.

Semantic TrueLearn: Using Semantic Knowledge Graphs in Recommendation Systems
Bulathwela, Sahan, Pรฉrez-Ortiz, Marรญa, Yilmaz, Emine, Shawe-Taylor, John
In informational recommenders, many challenges arise from the need to handle the semantic and hierarchical structure between knowledge areas. This work aims to advance towards building a state-aware educational recommendation system that incorporates semantic relatedness between knowledge topics, propagating latent information across semantically related topics. We introduce a novel learner model that exploits this semantic relatedness between knowledge components in learning resources using the Wikipedia link graph, with the aim to better predict learner engagement and latent knowledge in a lifelong learning scenario. In this sense, Semantic TrueLearn builds a humanly intuitive knowledge representation while leveraging Bayesian machine learning to improve the predictive performance of the educational engagement. Our experiments with a large dataset demonstrate that this new semantic version of TrueLearn algorithm achieves statistically significant improvements in terms of predictive performance with a simple extension that adds semantic awareness to the model.
Ethical and social risks of harm from Language Models
Weidinger, Laura, Mellor, John, Rauh, Maribeth, Griffin, Conor, Uesato, Jonathan, Huang, Po-Sen, Cheng, Myra, Glaese, Mia, Balle, Borja, Kasirzadeh, Atoosa, Kenton, Zac, Brown, Sasha, Hawkins, Will, Stepleton, Tom, Biles, Courtney, Birhane, Abeba, Haas, Julia, Rimell, Laura, Hendricks, Lisa Anne, Isaac, William, Legassick, Sean, Irving, Geoffrey, Gabriel, Iason
This paper aims to help structure the risk landscape associated with large-scale Language Models (LMs). In order to foster advances in responsible innovation, an in-depth understanding of the potential risks posed by these models is needed. A wide range of established and anticipated risks are analysed in detail, drawing on multidisciplinary expertise and literature from computer science, linguistics, and social sciences. We outline six specific risk areas: I. Discrimination, Exclusion and Toxicity, II. Information Hazards, III. Misinformation Harms, V. Malicious Uses, V. Human-Computer Interaction Harms, VI. Automation, Access, and Environmental Harms. The first area concerns the perpetuation of stereotypes, unfair discrimination, exclusionary norms, toxic language, and lower performance by social group for LMs. The second focuses on risks from private data leaks or LMs correctly inferring sensitive information. The third addresses risks arising from poor, false or misleading information including in sensitive domains, and knock-on risks such as the erosion of trust in shared information. The fourth considers risks from actors who try to use LMs to cause harm. The fifth focuses on risks specific to LLMs used to underpin conversational agents that interact with human users, including unsafe use, manipulation or deception. The sixth discusses the risk of environmental harm, job automation, and other challenges that may have a disparate effect on different social groups or communities. In total, we review 21 risks in-depth. We discuss the points of origin of different risks and point to potential mitigation approaches. Lastly, we discuss organisational responsibilities in implementing mitigations, and the role of collaboration and participation. We highlight directions for further research, particularly on expanding the toolkit for assessing and evaluating the outlined risks in LMs.
7Hours sprint to Data Science - Master Data Science
This handbook was designed for beginners. Joke aside, this book resulted as a process of teaching Machine Learning and Data Science to thousands of students from 2012.-2020. So, I do hope that I have managed to create a script that was tested numerous times in PC classrooms and during various Data Science Bootcamps. Let's keep a secret between us? Here is a free chapter from the handbook, so that you get a feeling of how good the book really is.
Naive Bayes Classifier Spam Filter Example : 4 Easy Steps
In probability, Bayes is a type of conditional probability. It predicts the event based on an event that has already happened. You can use Naive Bayes as a supervised machine learning method for predicting the event based on the evidence present in your dataset. In this tutorial, you will learn how to classify the email as spam or not using the Naive Bayes Classifier. Before doing coding demonstration, Let's know about the Naive Bayes in a brief.
Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence with Python
Machine learning is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that provides computers with the ability to learn without being explicitly programmed. Machine learning focuses on the development of Computer Programs that can change when exposed to new data. Looking to master Machine Learning for your job or as a career enhancement?
Text Processing: A Step by Step Guide through Twitter Sentimental Analysis - YOUR DATA GUY
According to Taweh Beysolow, "Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a subfield of computer science that is focused on allowing computers to understand language in a'natural' way, as humans do." NLP has evolved so rapidly gaining traction in its applications inn artificial intelligence (AI). In this project, we will explore one of the most exciting NLP applications i.e. We will build a machine learning model that can categorize tweets as positive (pro-vaccine), negative (anti-vaccine) or neutral. Stay tuned and let's jump into the project.
Fundamentals in Neural Networks
Beginner level audience that intends to obtain in-depth overview of Artificial Intelligence, Deep Learning, and three major types neural networks: Artificial Neural Networks, Convolutional Neural Networks, and Recurrent Neural Networks. Deep learning (also known as deep structured learning) is part of a broader family of machine learning methods based on artificial neural networks with representation learning. Learning can be supervised, semi-supervised or unsupervised. Deep-learning architectures such as deep neural networks, deep belief networks, deep reinforcement learning, recurrent neural networks and convolutional neural networks have been applied to fields including computer vision, speech recognition, natural language processing, machine translation, bioinformatics, drug design, medical image analysis, material inspection and board game programs, where they have produced results comparable to and in some cases surpassing human expert performance. This course covers the following three sections: (1) Neural Networks, (2) Convolutional Neural Networks, and (3) Recurrent Neural Networks.
