While both have gained a lot of attention this year, these techniques have been around for quite some time, but no more so than now, has it felt so promising. Over the past few years, there has been a monumental shift in technology and how it's being applied to everyday life. From robots to search engines, deep learning and machine learning are being raved about as the tech fuelling our new innovations, but many are left wondering what truly differentiates these two models. Broadly speaking, both machine learning and deep learning are forms of Artificial Intelligence, the intelligence exhibited by machines using cutting-edge techniques to perform cognitive functions that we associate with intuitive learning; however, each application is unique and offers an array of benefits to the end-user, whether it's solving unique problems for a particular business case, aiding in speech/facial recognition, speeding up web applications or protecting against breaches or hacks. While the concepts of machine learning and deep learning have been around as early as the 1960s, each model has changed drastically over the years, creating a greater divide between the two.

Data science interviews are notoriously complex, but most of what they throw at you will fall into one of these categories. Data science interviews are daunting, complicated gauntlets for many. But despite the ways they're evolving, the technical portion of the typical data science interview tends to be pretty predictable. The questions most candidates face usually cover behavior, mathematics, statistics, coding, and scenarios. However they differ in their particulars, those questions may be easier to answer if you can identify which bucket each one falls into.

In this post you discovered artificial neural networks for machine learning. How neural networks are not models of the brain but are instead computational models for solving complex machine learning problems. That neural networks are comprised of neurons that have weights and activation functions. The networks are organized into layers of neurons and are trained using stochastic gradient descent. That it is a good idea to prepare your data before training a neural network model.

Organizations create style guides to capture the rationale of their design decisions and help other teams build great experiences. You might have read gov.UK's service manual or the U.S. Digital Services Playbook. I wanted to do the same for chatbots built on the Facebook's Messenger platform. At Sure, we are creating an online assistant that helps you find food and drinks that are better for you and the planet. It is still very early days for bots, so I wanted to take the opportunity to share some of our early learnings.

The best services have one thing in common: a superb customer experience. Banking services are no exception to this rule, and indeed the quest for an effortless, well informed, and personalized customer experience is one of the main goals of today's innovation in digital banking services. According to what Maslow has described in his "pyramid of needs", customers are seeking a more intimate and meaningful experience where banking services can actively assist the customer in performing and managing their financial life. Predictive APIs have a fundamental role in all this, as they enable a new set of customer journeys such as automatic categorization of transactions, detecting and alerting recurrent payments, pre-approving credit requests or provide better tools to fight fraud without limiting legitimate customer transactions. In this talk, I will focus on how to provide better banking services by using predictive APIs.

The above graph summarizes the number of Artificial Intelligence companies founded in a certain year. We are currently tracking 1503 Artificial Intelligence companies in 13 categories across 73 countries, with a total of $9.3 Billion in funding.

There is much discussion these days about Lambda Architecture and its benefits for developing high performance analytic architectures. It offers a combination of a high performance, low latency ETL with a real-time layer, and a slower, more accurate, and flexible solution that runs in batch. As I work with it, I have learned to appreciate Cassandra's relative "immortality" and fit for such analytic systems. In a complex distributed system it's nice to know you have one component that you can rely on without much tending. Need to be highly available and regionally distributed?

Interesting article posted recently in MIT Technology Reviews. What kind of metrics would help detect such tweets? Whether a picture or not is associated with the tweet Whether a link or not is associated with the tweet Number of typos for the tweet in question, compared with average for the user in question Frequency of tweets (sudden spike) for user in question Keywords (and mi-spelled keywords) typically found in such tweets across drunk users Replies / re-tweets from other twitters (volume, do they contain specific keywords?) Replies / re-tweets from other twitters (volume, do they contain specific keywords?) Which algorithm would you use?

There is a lot of confusion these days about Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL), yet the distinction is very clear to practitioners in these fields. Are you able to articulate the difference? There is a lot of confusion these days about Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL). There certainly is a massive uptick of articles about AI being a competitive game changer and that enterprises should begin to seriously explore the opportunities. The distinction between AI, ML and DL are very clear to practitioners in these fields. AI is the all encompassing umbrella that covers everything from Good Old Fashion AI (GOFAI) all the way to connectionist architectures like Deep Learning.
