10 Points to Make it Big in the Data Industry

#artificialintelligence

Suppose you are someone who just got awed by the flashy terms of artificial intelligence, machine learning and data science and have decided to either get a degree in one of these fields or pivot your career and enter into the data industry. You get in on the hype, jump on the bandwagon, enroll in Andrew Ng's courses on Coursera, some more courses on Udacity, buy some detailed books and scour through them, start Kaggling, implement some projects and publish research papers. You start feeling good for what you have accomplished. But when you go and apply for a job or an internship, you don't get it and you wonder why. Well, the thing is all of what you did above is good for getting to know the basics and being exposed to what the industry has to offer.

Combining Online Learning and Offline Learning for Contextual Bandits with Deficient Support

arXiv.org Machine Learning

We address policy learning with logged data in contextual bandits. Current offline-policy learning algorithms are mostly based on inverse propensity score (IPS) weighting requiring the logging policy to have \emph{full support} i.e. a non-zero probability for any context/action of the evaluation policy. However, many real-world systems do not guarantee such logging policies, especially when the action space is large and many actions have poor or missing rewards. With such \emph{support deficiency}, the offline learning fails to find optimal policies. We propose a novel approach that uses a hybrid of offline learning with online exploration. The online exploration is used to explore unsupported actions in the logged data whilst offline learning is used to exploit supported actions from the logged data avoiding unnecessary explorations. Our approach determines an optimal policy with theoretical guarantees using the minimal number of online explorations. We demonstrate our algorithms' effectiveness empirically on a diverse collection of datasets.

5 Tips to Boost Your Data Science Learning

#artificialintelligence

Many guides give you advice on how to get started in data science: which online courses to take, which projects to implement for your portfolio, and which skills to acquire. But what if you got started with your learning journey, and now you are somewhere in the middle and don't know where to go next? After finishing my Data Scientist nanodegree at Udacity, I was at that middle point. I had built a foundation in various data science topics -- ML, deep neural networks, NLP, recommendation systems, and more -- and my learning curve had been very steep. So I felt that simply taking another online course wouldn't yield as many "things learned per day."


PySpark for Data Science - Advanced ($89.99 to FREE)

#artificialintelligence

This module in the PySpark tutorials section will help you learn about certain advanced concepts of PySpark. In the first section of these advanced tutorials, we will be performing a Recency Frequency Monetary segmentation (RFM). RFM analysis is typically used to identify outstanding customer groups further we shall also look at K-means clustering. Next up in these PySpark tutorials is learning Text Mining and using Monte Carlo Simulation from scratch. Pyspark is a big data solution that is applicable for real-time streaming using Python programming language and provides a better and efficient way to do all kinds of calculations and computations.


Open Problem: Is There an Online Learning Algorithm That Learns Whenever Online Learning Is Possible?

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

This open problem asks whether there exists an online learning algorithm for binary classification that guarantees, for all target concepts, to make a sublinear number of mistakes, under only the assumption that the (possibly random) sequence of points X allows that such a learning algorithm can exist for that sequence. As a secondary problem, it also asks whether a specific concise condition completely determines whether a given (possibly random) sequence of points X admits the existence of online learning algorithms guaranteeing a sublinear number of mistakes for all target concepts.


RWTH: Success in the "Artificial Intelligence in Higher Education" initiative

#artificialintelligence

RWTH receives funding for a network and an individual application in the federal-state initiative. RWTH Aachen has successfully emerged from the federal and state funding initiative "Artificial Intelligence in Higher Education". Both a joint project and an individual project are funded. With the funding initiative, which is endowed with around 133 million euros and reaches 81 universities across Germany, the federal and state governments are striving to develop the key technology of artificial intelligence (AI) more effectively across the university system. AIStudyBuddy The joint application "AIStudyBuddy: AI-based support for study planning" was submitted by RWTH as the applicant university together with the Ruhr University Bochum (RUB) and the Bergische Universität Wuppertal (BUW).
