Paper explained: DINO -- Emerging Properties in Self-Supervised Vision Transformers

#artificialintelligence

In this story, I would love to give you a a good idea of how the DINO paper works and what makes it great. I've tried to keep the article simple so that even readers with little prior knowledge can follow along. Traditionally, Vision Transformers (ViT) have not been as attractive as some would expect: They have high computational demands, need more training data, and their features do not exhibit unique properties. With their 2020 paper, "Emerging Properties in Self-Supervised Vision Transformers", Caron et al. aimed to examine why supervised ViT have not yet taken off and if that could be changed by applying self-supervised learning methods to them. This meant that a human would have to create labels for the training data like telling the model that there is a dog in the image.


Data Science: Supervised Machine Learning in Python

#artificialintelligence

In recent years, we've seen a resurgence in AI, or artificial intelligence, and machine learning. Machine learning has led to some amazing results, like being able to analyze medical images and predict diseases on-par with human experts. Google's AlphaGo program was able to beat a world champion in the strategy game go using deep reinforcement learning. Machine learning is even being used to program self driving cars, which is going to change the automotive industry forever. Imagine a world with drastically reduced car accidents, simply by removing the element of human error.


Low Code and No Code: The Future of Artificial Intelligence โ€“ Bestgamingpro

#artificialintelligence

Will low code apps go any higher? The jury is still out on how high this will all go. Low code and no code might even help business users build AI-driven applications, according to some experts. "Low and no code platforms make it feasible for businesses to deploy artificial intelligence without having to hire an army of pricey developers and data scientists," writes Jonathan Reilly in Harvard Business Review. "Removing friction from adoption will help unleash the power of AI across all industries and allow non-specialists to literally predict the future. In time, no-code AI platforms will be as ubiquitous as word-processing or spreadsheet software is today," Use tools like Amazon AWS to make it easier for you to consume AI services.


Combinations of Jaccard with Numerical Measures for Collaborative Filtering Enhancement: Current Work and Future Proposal

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Collaborative filtering (CF) is an important approach for recommendation system which is widely used in a great number of aspects of our life, heavily in the online-based commercial systems. One popular algorithms in CF is the K-nearest neighbors (KNN) algorithm, in which the similarity measures are used to determine nearest neighbors of a user, and thus to quantify the dependency degree between the relative user/item pair. Consequently, CF approach is not just sensitive to the similarity measure, yet it is completely contingent on selection of that measure. While Jaccard - as one of those commonly used similarity measures for CF tasks - concerns the existence of ratings, other numerical measures such as cosine and Pearson concern the magnitude of ratings. Particularly speaking, Jaccard is not a dominant measure, but it is long proven to be an important factor to improve any measure. Therefore, in our continuous efforts to find the most effective similarity measures for CF, this research focuses on proposing new similarity measure via combining Jaccard with several numerical measures. The combined measures would take the advantages of both existence and magnitude. Experimental results on, Movie-lens dataset, showed that the combined measures are preeminent outperforming all single measures over the considered evaluation metrics.


Classification with Imbalanced Data

#artificialintelligence

Building classification models on data that has largely imbalanced classes can be difficult. Using techniques such as oversampling, undersampling, resampling combinations, and custom filtering can improve accuracy. In this article, I'll walk through a few different approaches to deal with data imbalance in classification tasks. To demonstrate various class imbalance techniques, a fictitious dataset of credit card defaults will be used. In our scenario, we are trying to build an explainable classifier that takes two inputs (age and card balance) and predicts whether someone will miss an upcoming payment.

Explainable predictions of different machine learning algorithms used to predict Early Stage diabetes

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence can be widely used to diagnose chronic diseases so that necessary precautionary treatment can be done in critical time. Diabetes Mellitus which is one of the major diseases can be easily diagnosed by several Machine Learning algorithms. Early stage diagnosis is crucial to prevent dangerous consequences. In this paper we have made a comparative analysis of several machine learning algorithms viz. Random Forest, Decision Tree, Artificial Neural Networks, K Nearest Neighbor, Support Vector Machine, and XGBoost along with feature attribution using SHAP to identify the most important feature in predicting the diabetes on a dataset collected from Sylhet Hospital. As per the experimental results obtained, the Random Forest algorithm has outperformed all the other algorithms with an accuracy of 99 percent on this particular dataset.

Breast Cancer classifier using the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm

#artificialintelligence

You probably know that October is the Breast Cancer Awareness Month and following my learning path I decided to write a simple-yet-powerful classifier that predicts whether a test result indicates a benign or malignant tumor using the K-Nearest Neighbors algorithm. I think the beauty of the KNN is its simplicity. In Brazil we have a popular saying that says: "tell me who you're with and I'll tell you who you are". The same happens in KNN: given a set of points in a n-dimensional space and a point X, we predict that the class of X will be the most predominant class among X's K-Nearest Neighbors. Let's use the poorly illustrated image bellow to exemplify.


Gradient-based Quadratic Multiform Separation

#artificialintelligence

Classification as a supervised learning concept is an important content in machine learning. It aims at categorizing a set of data into classes. There are several commonly-used classification methods nowadays such as k-nearest neighbors, random forest, and support vector machine. Each of them has its own pros and cons, and none of them is invincible for all kinds of problems. In this thesis, we focus on Quadratic Multiform Separation (QMS), a classification method recently proposed by Michael Fan et al. (2019). Its fresh concept, rich mathematical structure, and innovative definition of loss function set it apart from the existing classification methods. Inspired by QMS, we propose utilizing a gradient-based optimization method, Adam, to obtain a classifier that minimizes the QMS-specific loss function. In addition, we provide suggestions regarding model tuning through explorations of the relationships between hyperparameters and accuracies. Our empirical result shows that QMS performs as good as most classification methods in terms of accuracy. Its superior performance almost comparable to those of gradient boosting algorithms that win massive machine learning competitions.
