Machine learning terms you must know about as a beginner.

🧵👇

These terms won't mean anything unless you know what Machine learning is all about.

> Machine learning is the process of making a program which allows a computer to learn from data.

The data could be anything, images, audio or even text.

(2 / 11)

In machine learning we use something called a neural network, this is essentially an imitation of the human brain.

> Neural Networks are a digital imitation of the neurons you see in the human brain.

(3 / 11)

In these neural networks, data flows through them and each neuron (the circle) has a numerical value which will change.

> The value of a neuron gets changes to something which is close to what we want each time the data passes through the neural network.

(4 / 11)

Think of the neurons as dials on a lock, you have to tune every dial to open the lock.

It is almost impossible for a human to tune thousands of dials like these, but a computer certainly can.

(5 / 11)

Once the dials are well tuned, you have a well trained neural network!

Each dial's numeric value is dependent on a "weight" and a "bias". The weight determines how important the neuron is and the bias make it flexible.

(6 / 11)

So here's a recap of what we've looked at so far:

The neural net is the brain of the machine learning model, the dials you have to adjust to make that neural net work are the neurons.

(7 / 11)

Each time data passes through the neural network, we get to know how wrong it is. The measure of how wrong a neural network is called the "loss". The neural network uses this thing called an "optmizer" to reduce "loss" and tries to get less wrong after each iteration.

(8 / 11)

The number of times the data passes through the neural net is called the "epoch".

Let's summarize the entire thing👇

(9 / 11)

Neural Network: The brain of our machine learning model
Neuron : Each dial in a neural network
Weight : How important the neuron is
Bias : Flexibility of neuron

(10 / 11)

Epoch : Number of times the data passes through the neural network
Loss : How wrong the neural net is
Optimizer : Tries to reduce loss and make the neural net less wrong

Congrats! You know a fair bit about commonly used machine learning terms 😉

Ever heard of Autoencoders?

The first time I saw a Neural Network with more output neurons than in the hidden layers, I couldn't figure how it would work?!

#DeepLearning #MachineLearning
Here's a little something about them: 🧵👇

Autoencoders are unsupervised neural networks whose architecture you can picture as two funnels connect from the narrow ends.

These networks are primary focus for compression tasks of data in Machine Learning.

We feed them the data so that they can learn the most important features, a smaller representation while keep the integrity of the data.

Later when someone needs, can just take that small representation and recreate the original, just like a zip file.📥

Being unsupervised, they require no labels.
Our inputs and outputs are same and a simple euclidean distance can be used as a loss function for measuring the reconstruction.

Of course, we wouldn't expect a perfect reconstruction.

We can think of an autoencoder having two components, encoder and decoder, represented by the below equations:

We are just trying to minimize the L here. All the backpropagation rules still hold.

🧵👇

😜

Before starting, remember that, if you follow me, one of your enemies will be immediately destroyed (and you'll get to read more of these threads, of course.)

And if you don't follow me, well, you just hurt my feelings.

😜

1. Labels

(Also referred to as "y")

The label is the piece of information that we are predicting.

For example:

- the animal that's shown in a picture
- the price of a house
- whether a message is spam or not

👇

2. Features

(Also referred to as "x")

These are the input variables to our problem. We use these features to predict the "label."

For example:

- pixels of a picture
- number of bedrooms of a house
- square footage of a house

👇

3. Samples

(This is also known as "examples.")

A sample is a particular instance of data (features or "x.") It could be "labeled" or "unlabeled."

Really enjoyed digging into recent innovations in the football analytics industry.

>10 hours of interviews for this w/ a dozen or so of top firms in the game. Really grateful to everyone who gave up time & insights, even those that didnt make final cut 🙇‍♂️ https://t.co/9YOSrl8TdN

For avoidance of doubt, leading tracking analytics firms are now well beyond voronoi diagrams, using more granular measures to assess control and value of space.

This @JaviOnData & @LukeBornn paper from 2018 referenced in the piece demonstrates one method https://t.co/Hx8XTUMpJ5

Bit of this that I nerded out on the most is "ghosting" — technique used by @counterattack9 & co @stats_insights, among others.

Deep learning models predict how specific players — operating w/in specific setups — will move & execute actions. A paper here: https://t.co/9qrKvJ70EN

So many use-cases:
1/ Quickly & automatically spot situations where opponent's defence is abnormally vulnerable. Drill those to death in training.
2/ Swap target player B in for current player A, and simulate. How does target player strengthen/weaken team? In specific situations?

Samayapuram Mariamman Temple
#Trichy
#Tamilnadutemples 🚩

Samayapuram Mariamman Temple is located in Samayapuram of
Tiruchirappalli district. Mariyamman here is worshipped as Samayapurathal a form of Parashakti.
Amman vigraham here is made of sand and clay so

no abhishekam done to the main vigraham. Samayapuram Mariamman Temple is one of the famous Shakthi Sthal of Tamilnadu.

Story says that paramashiva created Kali, out of the poison that he drank during samudra mathanam. As Devi originated from the Kaalakoota/ halahala poison,

thus the name Kaali. Mariamman is believed to be a form of Kaali, and is also known as Mahamayi. It is also believed that Maharaja Dasharatha offered his prayers here.

Mariamman is Parashakti herself who blesses with prosperity and she is believed to cure all diseases.

Paramashiva, Mahavishnu and Brahma Deva are believed to have taken blessings of Mariamman here.

Om Shakti Para Shakti

This post got a little delayed since the paper's publication, but the intervening time has given me an opportunity to reflect.

So this post has some extra thoughts regarding more recent NLG developments - e.g., pretrained models like GPT(2), and the suitability of beam search.

Spent a quaint half hour in a cafe listening to a guy yell at his dad after his dad said that the women Trump molested wanted it: "Dad, that's like saying the Jews who died in the Holocaust were asking for it!" ENJOY YOUR TERRIBLE FAMILIES THIS WEEK!

"Mom, has a man ever touched you without your consent?"
"Of course."
"Did you report it?"
"No."
"Dad, your WIFE has been through this!"

Dad was unmoved and told the guy to stop arguing with him.

At this point we learned the boy child has allergies.

I forgot to remark upon the presence of the very cute grandson, who was very small and gave not one shit about the yelling. I believe a sister or aunt was present and feeling very stressed. I wanted to hand her a Xanax or seven.

It was really hard to not jump in and say, "Sounds like you guys are going to have a fun meal tomorrow!" so they could unite in hatred against me, the outsider, and stop squabbling. Instead I exchanged glances with a nearby fellow lady patron, who also emotionally ate a cookie.

Anyway, I want to thank the random family for yelling about rape and the Holocaust in an Israeli cafe in the US of A today because it reminded me that while this country isn't the greatest, it is inevitably my stupid favorite and I am never, ever bored.
