This article takes a different approach by looking at the ‘detecting’ aspects of the problem rather than ‘the story.’ Instead of starting with our own mystery, we begin today by looking at one of Agatha Christy’s stories brought to film one more time in 2017. I recently watched the re-make of Murder on the Orient Express1, the one in which Kenneth Branagh plays the lead character. How the Circle Line rogue train was caught with data. The Extraordinary Link Between Deep Neural Networks and the Nature of the Universe.

In the last couple of years, deep learning techniques have transformed the world of artificial intelligence.

The Extraordinary Link Between Deep Neural Networks and the Nature of the Universe

One by one, the abilities and techniques that humans once imagined were uniquely our own have begun to fall to the onslaught of ever more powerful machines. Beetle Blocks - Visual code for 3D design.

They all work the same, doing second-grade math, one step at a time: Tick, take a number and put it in box one. Tick, take another number, put it in box two. Why so many data scientists are leaving their jobs. Big data is like teenage sex: everyone talks about it, nobody really knows how to do it, everyone thinks everyone else is doing it, so everyone claims they are doing it… — Dan Ariely This quote is so apt. Many junior data scientists I know (this includes myself) wanted to get into data science because it was all about solving complex problems with cool new machine learning algorithms that make huge impact on a business. This was a chance to feel like the work we were doing was more important than anything we’ve done before. Learning Math for Machine Learning. Vincent Chen is a student at Stanford University studying Computer Science.

Learning Math for Machine Learning

He is also a Research Assistant at the Stanford AI Lab. It’s not entirely clear what level of mathematics is necessary to get started in machine learning, especially for those who didn’t study math or statistics in school. In this piece, my goal is to suggest the mathematical background necessary to build products or conduct academic research in machine learning. These suggestions are derived from conversations with machine learning engineers, researchers, and educators, as well as my own experiences in both machine learning research and industry roles. Math for Machine Learning [Video] When Bayes, Ockham, and Shannon come together to define machine learning. Writing an R package from scratch. Anyone who has created their own R package has probably come across Hilary Parker’s awesome blogpost, that walks you through creating your very first R package.

Writing an R package from scratch

The comprehensive detail on everything R packages can be found in Hadley Wickham’s superb book. In this post I am going to walk through some of the developments in the package development space since Hilary wrote her blog four years ago, in particular focussing on the relatively recent usethis package.
