Delivery Problem Coursera
About this course: We'll implement (in Python) together efficient programs for a problem needed by delivery companies all over the world millions times per day -- the travelling salesman problem. The goal in this problem is to visit all the given places as quickly as possible. How to find an optimal solution to this problem quickly? We still don't have provably efficient algorithms for this difficult computational problem and this is the essence of the P versus NP problem, the most important open question in Computer Science. Still, we'll implement several solutions for real world instances of the travelling salesman problem.
Fundamentals of Decision Trees in Machine Learning
A tree has many analogies in real life, and turns out that it has influenced a wide area of machine learning, covering both classification and regression. In decision analysis, a decision tree can be used to visually and explicitly represent decisions and decision making. If you're working towards an understanding of machine learning, it's important to know how to work with decision trees. This course covers the essentials of machine learning, including predictive analytics and working with decision trees. In this course, we'll explore several popular tree algorithms and learn how to use reverse engineering to identify specific variables.
'Teachers, don't fall for AI. It's just spin'
Digital natives, 21st century learning, schools of the future, flipped classroomsโฆ and now artificial intelligence. The catalogue of clever marketing for technology aimed at seducing schools has turned a shiny new page. AI has all the right ingredients to make it a commercial success. Conceptually way outside most teachers' pay grade, so they can't challenge it, AI also carries a sniff of sci-fi glamour. Gullible and not so gullible key influencers with a nose for this sort of thing are already out there, busy influencing.
The Future of AI and Education - insideBIGDATA
AI and machine learning can predict, to a certain degree, who we should friend or what song we should listen to next based on our previous choices on social media and music apps. AI has assisted in video games, making enemies harder to attack by giving them the ability to interact with their surroundings to hide behind structures and pick up better weapons. But what if we dive a little deeper into AI technology? Education professionals are taking on the task to implement AI into operations, and finding it to be quite beneficial. While social media, music, and video games have their value, education is far more necessary.
Machine Learning for Developers: 2-in-1 Udemy
Are you looking forward to learning the basics of Machine Learning and develop high performing apps? Then, this Learning Path is perfect for you. The question frequently asked by developers across the globe is, "How do I get started in Machine Learning?" One reason could be the vastness of the subject area because people often get overwhelmed by the abstractness of ML and terms such as regression, supervised learning, probability density function, and so on. This systematic guide will teach you various Machine Learning techniques as well as Neural Networks in Machine Learning.
Think You Can Tell Fake News From Real? New Study Says 'Think Again'
Despite confidence in their soft skills, including critical thinking, a majority of young professionals in the 2nd Annual State of Critical Thinking Study commissioned by Massachusetts-based educational technology company MindEdge Learning resoundingly flunked a quiz that assessed their critical thinking skills specifically when applied to digital literacy. The nine questions in the quiz targeted the respondents' ability to distinguish fake news on the internet from reliable, factual content. Getting the questions right demanded one pay attention to details of style (use of all caps, presence or absence of photo credits, words such as "promoted" or spelling errors, etc.) as well as technical aspects such as broken links and recognizable domains. I asked MindEdge if I could see the survey questions and took the quiz myself. I am pretty sure I got all 9 questions right.
Mother's Day Interview: How Nicole Finnie Became a Competitive Kaggler on Maternity Leave
As Kaggle's moderating data scientist for the Data Science Bowl, I'm fortunate to have met first-time competitor Nicole Finnie. Her team (Unet Nuke) impressively ranked within the top 2%, earning Nicole a silver medal. More impressively, I learned that Nicole had no ML/DS experience just a year ago, and picked up these new skills through online classes during her recent maternity leave. As an expectant mother, I found Nicole's story inspiring and am excited to share it with the broader Kaggle community this Mother's Day. I hold a Bachelor degree in Computer Science and a Master degree in Software Engineering specialized in computer visualization.
