Anaconda cron on Amazon Linux

If you are a Python programmer and use the AWS and Anaconda environments, sooner or later you will come across the need to run a Python script as a cron process on Amazon Linux in the Anaconda environment. This shouldn’t be difficult, right? Hmmm, unfortunately it is. Because I spent some time configuring the cron …

Convolutional neural network 4: data augmentation

In the previous three parts of the tutorial, we learned about convolutional networks in detail. We looked at the convolution operation, the convolutional network architecture, and the problem of overfitting. In the classification of the CIFAR-10 dataset we achieved 81% on the test set. To go further we would have to change the architecture of …

Convolutional neural network 3: convnets and overfitting

Convolutional neural network is one of the most effective neural network architecture in the field of image classification. In the first part of the tutorial, we discussed the convolution operation and built a simple densely connected neural network, which we used to classify CIFAR-10 dataset, achieving accuracy of 47%. In the second part of the …

Convolutional neural network 2: architecture

Convolutional neural network provides one of the best classification results for images. In the previous post, you had the opportunity to learn what a convolution is and how to classify a CIFAR-10 dataset using a simple densly connected neural network. By the way, we have obtained accuracy of 47% on the test set. In the …

Convolutional neural network 1: convolutions

Deep neural networks are widely used in image and shape recognition. Examples of applications include face recognition, image analysis in medicine, handwriting classification, and detection of surrounding objects. A special type of neural network that handles image processing extremely well is a convolutional neural network. I have to admit that ConvNet is my favorite deep …

Naive Bayes in machine learning

Naive Bayes in machine learning

Do you like statistics? There is a high probability 😉 that you don’t. But don’t worry, statistics are not my strong point either. All in all, it’s hard to say why most people shun statistics, but I feel that many statistical issues are not entirely intuitive. Just reach for the gambler’s fallacy or Monty Hall …

Development environment for machine learning

Development environment for machine learning

One of the first problems faced by AI students is how to build a development environment for machine learning. This is an ungrateful issue because there are many methods and tools available and sometimes you simply don’t know which to choose and where to start. Added to this are the issues of choosing libraries for …

Logistic Regression for binary classification

Logistic regression and Keras for classification

Today I would like to present an example of using logistic regression and Keras for the binary classification. I know that this previous sentence does not sound very encouraging 😉 , so maybe let’s start from the basics. We divide machine learning into supervised and unsupervised (and reinforced learning, but let’s skip this now). Supervised …

Handwriting digit recognition Keras MNIST

Handwritten Digit Recognition with Keras

Shape recognition, and handwritten digit recognition in particular, is one of the most graceful topics for anyone starting to learn AI. There are several reasons, but the two most important are the ease with which we can use well-prepared ready-made datasets and the ability to visualize these data. From this tutorial you will learn: Okay, …
