Learn how to create Machine Learning model from scratch that uses Multinomial Logistic Regression. We are going to have a look at Multinomial Logistic Regression one of the classic supervised machine learning algorithms capable of doing multi-class classification, i.e., predict an outcome for the target variable when there are more than 2 possible discrete classes of outcomes. When it comes to real-world machine learning, around 70% of the problems are classification-based, where, on the basis of the available set of features, your model tries to predict that out of a given set of categories(discrete possible outcomes), what category does your target variable might belong to. This is a project-based guide, where we will see how to code an MLR model from scratch while understanding the mathematics involved that allows the model to make predictions. For the project, we will be working on the famous UCI Cleveland Heart Disease dataset.

There exist significant gaps in research about how to design efficient in-bed lying posture tracking systems. These gaps can be articulated through several research questions as follows. First, can we design a single-sensor, pervasive, and inexpensive system that can accurately detect lying postures? Second, what computational models are most effective in the accurate detection of lying postures? Finally, what physical configuration of the sensor system is most effective for lying posture tracking? To answer these important research questions, in this article, we propose a comprehensive approach to design a sensor system that uses a single accelerometer along with machine learning algorithms for in-bed lying posture classification. We design two categories of machine learning algorithms based on deep learning and traditional classification with handcrafted features to detect lying postures. We also investigate what wearing sites are most effective in accurate detection of lying postures. We extensively evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithms on nine different body locations and four human lying postures using two datasets. Our results show that a system with a single accelerometer can be used with either deep learning or traditional classifiers to accurately detect lying postures. The best models in our approach achieve an F-Score that ranges from 95.2% to 97.8% with 0.03 to 0.05 coefficient of variation. The results also identify the thighs and chest as the most salient body sites for lying posture tracking. Our findings in this article suggest that because accelerometers are ubiquitous and inexpensive sensors, they can be a viable source of information for pervasive monitoring of in-bed postures.

How can we conduct efficient hyperparameter optimization for a completely new task? In this work, we consider a novel setting, where we search for the optimal hyperparameters for a target task of interest using only unlabeled target task and somewhat relevant source task datasets. In this setting, it is essential to estimate the ground-truth target task objective using only the available information. We propose estimators to unbiasedly approximate the ground-truth with a desirable variance property. Building on these estimators, we provide a general and tractable hyperparameter optimization procedure for our setting. The experimental evaluations demonstrate that the proposed framework broadens the applications of automated hyperparameter optimization.

Physical reasoning requires forward prediction: the ability to forecast what will happen next given some initial world state. We study the performance of state-of-the-art forward-prediction models in complex physical-reasoning tasks. We do so by incorporating models that operate on object or pixel-based representations of the world, into simple physical-reasoning agents. We find that forward-prediction models improve the performance of physical-reasoning agents, particularly on complex tasks that involve many objects. However, we also find that these improvements are contingent on the training tasks being similar to the test tasks, and that generalization to different tasks is more challenging. Surprisingly, we observe that forward predictors with better pixel accuracy do not necessarily lead to better physical-reasoning performance. Nevertheless, our best models set a new state-of-the-art on the PHYRE benchmark for physical reasoning.

In clustering problems, a central decision-maker is given a complete metric graph over vertices and must provide a clustering of vertices that minimizes some objective function. In fair clustering problems, vertices are endowed with a color (e.g., membership in a group), and the features of a valid clustering might also include the representation of colors in that clustering. Prior work in fair clustering assumes complete knowledge of group membership. In this paper, we generalize prior work by assuming imperfect knowledge of group membership through probabilistic assignments. We present clustering algorithms in this more general setting with approximation ratio guarantees. We also address the problem of "metric membership", where different groups have a notion of order and distance. Experiments are conducted using our proposed algorithms as well as baselines to validate our approach and also surface nuanced concerns when group membership is not known deterministically.

We present an improved method for symbolic regression that seeks to fit data to formulas that are Pareto-optimal, in the sense of having the best accuracy for a given complexity. It improves on the previous state-of-the-art by typically being orders of magnitude more robust toward noise and bad data, and also by discovering many formulas that stumped previous methods. We develop a method for discovering generalized symmetries (arbitrary modularity in the computational graph of a formula) from gradient properties of a neural network fit. We use normalizing flows to generalize our symbolic regression method to probability distributions from which we only have samples, and employ statistical hypothesis testing to accelerate robust brute-force search.

In the paper, the new approach to the scheduling problem are described. The approach deals with the problem of planning the cyclic production and proposes to consider such scheduling problem as the cyclic job-shop problem of the order k, where k is the number of reiterations. It was found out that planning of only one iteration of the loop is less effective than planning of the entire cycle. To the experimental research, a number of test instances of the job-shop scheduling problem by Operation Research Library were used. The Simulated Annealing was applied to solve the instances. The experiments proved that the approach proposed allows increasing the efficiency of cyclic scheduling significantly.

Smart devices in the Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm provide a variety of unobtrusive and pervasive means for continuous monitoring of bio-metrics and health information. Furthermore, automated personalization and authentication through such smart systems can enable better user experience and security. In this paper, simultaneous estimation and monitoring of body mass index (BMI) and user identity recognition through a unified machine learning framework using smart beds is explored. To this end, we utilize pressure data collected from textile-based sensor arrays integrated onto a mattress to estimate the BMI values of subjects and classify their identities in different positions by using a deep multitask neural network. First, we filter and extract 14 features from the data and subsequently employ deep neural networks for BMI estimation and subject identification on two different public datasets. Finally, we demonstrate that our proposed solution outperforms prior works and several machine learning benchmarks by a considerable margin, while also estimating users' BMI in a 10-fold cross-validation scheme.

Robust Subspace Recovery (RoSuRe) algorithm was recently introduced as a principled and numerically efficient algorithm that unfolds underlying Unions of Subspaces (UoS) structure, present in the data. The union of Subspaces (UoS) is capable of identifying more complex trends in data sets than simple linear models. We build on and extend RoSuRe to prospect the structure of different data modalities individually. We propose a novel multi-modal data fusion approach based on group sparsity which we refer to as Robust Group Subspace Recovery (RoGSuRe). Relying on a bi-sparsity pursuit paradigm and non-smooth optimization techniques, the introduced framework learns a new joint representation of the time series from different data modalities, respecting an underlying UoS model. We subsequently integrate the obtained structures to form a unified subspace structure. The proposed approach exploits the structural dependencies between the different modalities data to cluster the associated target objects. The resulting fusion of the unlabeled sensors' data from experiments on audio and magnetic data has shown that our method is competitive with other state of the art subspace clustering methods. The resulting UoS structure is employed to classify newly observed data points, highlighting the abstraction capacity of the proposed method.
