How Meteorites are Studied The scientists scan meteorites using an electron microprobe (EMP). An EMP shoots a beam of electrons at the meteorite. When the beam of electrons collides with the atoms in the meteorite, the atoms emit x-rays. Each element has a distinct, characteristic frequencies. A graph of characteristic frequencies … Read moreUsing Machine Learning to Identify the Minerals in Meteorites

How to implement a Word2vec model with Python and NumPy Introduction Recently, I have been working with several projects related to NLP at work. Some of them had something to do with training the company’s in-house word embedding. At work, the tasks were mostly done with the help of a Python … Read moreWord2vec from Scratch with NumPy

1. CONFERENCE At the Rework Deep Learning Conference I want to start with conferences because I just came back from one in January 2019. This is probably the most expensive but also the most fun option in my opinion. Since I became a data scientist, I have attended the following … Read moreHow to Stay Up To Date as a Data/Research Scientist

Artificial Intelligence Artificial Intelligence is fundamentally a statistical approach to architecture. The premise of AI, that blends statistical principles with computation is a new approach that can improve over the drawbacks of parametric architecture. “Learning”, as understood by machines, corresponds to the ability of a computer, when faced with a … Read moreThe Advent of Architectural AI

How to successfully prepare your data for a machine learning model in minutes Data preprocessing is the first (and arguably most important) step toward building a working machine learning model. It’s critical! If your data hasn’t been cleaned and preprocessed, your model does not work. It’s that simple. Data preprocessing is … Read moreThe complete beginner’s guide to data cleaning and preprocessing

Neon sign showing the simple statement of Bayes’ theorem. Courtesy: Wikipedia Bayes’ Theorem Having just explored what the Conditional Probability is, let’s take a look at the Bayes’ Theorem. It simply says: The probability of A given B is equal to the probability of B given A times the probability … Read moreStatistics is the Grammar of Data Science — Part 5/5

source Learning from Demonstration Reinforcement learning bears a lot of promise for the future; recent achievements have shown its ability in solving problems at super human level, like playing board games, predicting the structure of proteins based on their genetic sequence and playing real-time strategy games on a professional level. … Read moreReinforcement Learning Using a Single Demonstration
