xkcd.com Artificial Intelligence – Towards Data Science

This article shows you how we created an xkcd.com We can predict the topic of the comic from the description of the comic. My circle of friends has a huge nerd crush on Randall Munroe, the author of the xkcd comics, and books like what if?. Mary Kate MacPherson took the initiative, and scraped the transcripts for every comic, and used my patent analyzer code to turn the transcripts into embedding vectors. She then tossed the vectors and labels into tensorflow and crunched the data down into clusters using t-SNE. Those of you who know xkcd.com will be well aware that the comics are numbered sequentially.
