Machine Learning

And how much you need to do well in Machine Learning — To help me understand you fill out this survey (anonymous) A while back, I was on Twitter and I saw the following exceptional take on Twitter. This is a very popular idea online, and I had meant to write about this sooner. But thanks to all the insanity happening in…

Parcel boundary detection with super-resolved satellite imagery — Written by Nejc Vesel and Grega Milčinski. Work performed by Matej Aleksandrov, Matej Batič, Nika Kadunc, Žiga Lukšič, Devis Peressutti, Sara Verbič and Nejc Vesel. There is a longstanding debate within the Earth Observation community (and beyond) about the value and real life applicability of super resolution (SR) imagery. Some…

As Director of Advanced Analytics at Canada Post, I have had the opportunity to build my team of data scientists from the ground up over the past few years. I now have in place a process that helps me find smart, talented and motivated team members. This process ensures a…

a little research for a pretty optimization — Hi to everyone! Let’s talk about tuning hyperparameters in ensemble learning (mostly, blending). In such ensembles, predictions from one machine learning model become predictors for another (next level). The figure below shows some variations of ensembles where the data is transferred from left to right. Such ensembles will also be…

The aim of this blog is to understand how the paper “How to avoid machine learning pitfalls: a guide for academic researchers” is applicable to the applied research in the industry. Though the above paper is written keeping in mind the academicians and researchers who are relatively new to the…
