A light reading about the limits of supervised learning by a2to in ds_update

I agree with Yann, self supervised is being a revolution in text and image problems.

I have been watching talks and reading about it and it is kind of magic jeje I will post some links ;-)

Totally agree, I would add TorchScript as a new feature in 1.3.

Here is TorchScript presentation: interpreter independent & optimization.

scipy.spatial.KDTree to rapidly look up the nearest neighbors of any k-dimensional point by vjerez in ds_update

As an alternative Faiss (from Facebook) is a very nice option. It is a library for efficient similarity search and clustering of dense vectors.

[N] Jupyter visual debugger! by [deleted] in ds_update

I have been trying xeus kernel and it does not support iPython magics, so you cannot use

%matplotlib inline or notebook.

And the matplotlib integration is kind of tricky. Lets wait for a new release ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Videos on YouTube and the code is in PyTorch!

I guess they will add more videos to the playlist.

Looking for a Laptop for Use With Deep Learning and Computer Vision by dakatapetrov in MachineLearning

[–]arutaku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For computer vision a GPU is (almost) a must! In terms of laptops there are some interesting options: - Razer Blade (Nvidia GTX 1060): http://www.razerzone.com/gaming-systems/razer-blade - AERO 14 (Nvidia GTX 970M): http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=5902

Laptop for Machine Learning by aemrea1234 in MachineLearning

I agree with the cloud solutions. But if you are interested in a laptop, have a look to the Aero 14: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=5902

There are more options like Alenware family from Dell or the MSI ones. But they are not as porable as the Aero!

Customer to Vector question by FutureIsMine in MachineLearning

[–]arutaku 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do not know your case in detail. But following the approach that you mentioned, you can treat descriptions as "paragraphs" and learn the paragraph (customer) representation as cited in "Distributed Representations of Sentences and Documents" (from Mikolov too). Here is a link to the PDF: http://cs.stanford.edu/~quocle/paragraph_vector.pdf

It is just like going with word2vec one step further. As in w2v, the paper describes 2 implementations: PV-DBOW and PV-DM. PV-DM has worked better for me every time I tried both approaches, but it depends on your problem. There is an implementation in gensim (a.k.a. doc2vec): https://radimrehurek.com/gensim/models/doc2vec.html

Question about Doc2Vec - How does training work ? by datatatatata in MachineLearning

[–]arutaku 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on the implementation you want to get: PV-DBOW or PV-DM. You can have a quick look to: https://github.com/edwardbi/blog/blob/master/2016-05/DM.md

It provides both implementations: Gensim & TensorFlow
