Perform data science with Azure Databricks

#artificialintelligence

In this course, you will learn how to harness the power of Apache Spark and powerful clusters running on the Azure Databricks platform to run data science workloads in the cloud. This is the fourth course in a five-course program that prepares you to take the DP-100: Designing and Implementing a Data Science Solution on Azurec ertification exam. The certification exam is an opportunity to prove knowledge and expertise operate machine learning solutions at a cloud-scale using Azure Machine Learning. This specialization teaches you to leverage your existing knowledge of Python and machine learning to manage data ingestion and preparation, model training and deployment, and machine learning solution monitoring in Microsoft Azure. Each course teaches you the concepts and skills that are measured by the exam.


Device-based Models with TensorFlow Lite

#artificialintelligence

Continue developing your skills in TensorFlow as you learn to navigate through a wide range of deployment scenarios and discover new ways to use data more effectively when training your machine learning models. In this four-course Specialization, you'll learn how to get your machine learning models into the hands of real people on all kinds of devices. Start by understanding how to train and run machine learning models in browsers and in mobile applications. Learn how to leverage built-in datasets with just a few lines of code, learn about data pipelines with TensorFlow data services, use APIs to control data splitting, process all types of unstructured data, and retrain deployed models with user data while maintaining data privacy. Apply your knowledge in various deployment scenarios and get introduced to TensorFlow Serving, TensorFlow, Hub, TensorBoard, and more.


Sequences, Time Series and Prediction

#artificialintelligence

If you are a software developer who wants to build scalable AI-powered algorithms, you need to understand how to use the tools to build them. This Specialization will teach you best practices for using TensorFlow, a popular open-source framework for machine learning. In this fourth course, you will learn how to build time series models in TensorFlow. You'll first implement best practices to prepare time series data. You'll also explore how RNNs and 1D ConvNets can be used for prediction.


Prepare for DP-100: Data Science on Microsoft Azure Exam

#artificialintelligence

Microsoft certifications give you a professional advantage by providing globally recognized and industry-endorsed evidence of mastering skills in digital and cloud businesses. In this course, you will prepare to take the DP-100 Azure Data Scientist Associate certification exam. You will refresh your knowledge of how to plan and create a suitable working environment for data science workloads on Azure, run data experiments, and train predictive models. In addition, you will recap on how to manage, optimize, and deploy machine learning models into production. You will test your knowledge in a practice exam mapped to all the main topics covered in the DP-100 exam, ensuring you're well prepared for certification success.


Optimal Online Learning using Potential Functions

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

We study a family of potential functions for online learning. We show that if the potential function has strictly positive derivatives of order 1-4 then the min-max optimal strategy for the adversary is Brownian motion. Using that fact we analyze different potential functions and show that the Normal-Hedge potential provides the tightest upper bounds on the cumulative regret of the top {\epsilon}-percentile.


How Machine Learning Can Benefit Online Learning

#artificialintelligence

From phones to watches to TVs, everything around us is becoming'smart'. Education is not so far behind. The'smart' approach to education is typically the incorporation of Machine Learning (ML) in learning and development. Machine Learning leverages Artificially Intelligent methods to teach systems how to make informed decisions without any human intervention. This is done by feeding data to a machine learning algorithm which is then able to process the data and make inferences for future events.

Multi-Layer Personalized Federated Learning for Mitigating Biases in Student Predictive Analytics

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Traditional learning-based approaches to student modeling (e.g., predicting grades based on measured activities) generalize poorly to underrepresented/minority student groups due to biases in data availability. In this paper, we propose a Multi-Layer Personalized Federated Learning (MLPFL) methodology which optimizes inference accuracy over different layers of student grouping criteria, such as by course and by demographic subgroups within each course. In our approach, personalized models for individual student subgroups are derived from a global model, which is trained in a distributed fashion via meta-gradient updates that account for subgroup heterogeneity while preserving modeling commonalities that exist across the full dataset. To evaluate our methodology, we consider case studies of two popular downstream student modeling tasks, knowledge tracing and outcome prediction, which leverage multiple modalities of student behavior (e.g., visits to lecture videos and participation on forums) in model training. Experiments on three real-world datasets from online courses demonstrate that our approach obtains substantial improvements over existing student modeling baselines in terms of increasing the average and decreasing the variance of prediction quality across different student subgroups. Visual analysis of the resulting students' knowledge state embeddings confirm that our personalization methodology extracts activity patterns which cluster into different student subgroups, consistent with the performance enhancements we obtain over the baselines.
