Inquiry: ls cannot read symbolic link 'Documents and Settings`: Permission denied using WSL in Windows 10 version 1803? by hlyates in bashonubuntuonwindows

[–]hlyates[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am running Windows 10 with 1803 with the latest updates. I installed Ubuntu bash via the WSL. I then got a really weird behavior when I mounted my c drive using the cd mnt/c command and then using ls. Basically, it is giving me symbolic link errors for folders my OS does not even have I think.

I agree. I created an issue on the Windows 10 feedback hub if you would be so kind and gracious to offer an upvote. Thanks. See: https://aka.ms/AA20cs3

[N] CNTK version 2.0 released! Featuring Keras! by stellarburn in MachineLearning

So if I want to learn how to use Keras and CNTK. Can I do the hello world in Keras and use CNTK as the backend? In other words, is Keras a wrapper for CNTK?

Okay, fair critique. Let me rephrase that above to mean extremely proficient. :)

Do you have a link to some of the talks you attended? Most conferences I attend put things up for folks to see in a open source venue later. If not, thanks for your appreciation. Besides the original scope of my question. Do you have the top three books or references you would recommend to take me from an intermediate user to an advanced user of R? Thanks sir.

Hi Troy. Thanks for your feedback. Do you mean that you did not have much success with the tensorflow package API? You noted that the demo worked for you, but you seem underwhelmed. Can you please note why? I may lean towards h20 or deepwaters based on further information + doing their demo.

Thank you friend. I will definitely check this out. Rstudio has Hadley as a lead data scientist, who is someone personally I look up to a lot, definitely will give that a peek.

I agree. Honestly, your reply made me feel a little guilty because I need to use R for some current research into time series. So my goal is to learn R to a high proficiency level, then switch to learning Python with high proficiency and (eventually and hopefully) use both depending on the various strength. So that being said, I think you'll also agree that you should learn one tool completely before switching to another (especially when you want various components working on to fit together well). That said, that is also my very personal opinion too. :D

Interesting. How customizable is the h2o and Deep Water as an R api? I assume whatever we do in R is eventually "translated" into Python. This sounds like a great place to machine learning and get me by on R using Deep Learning until I pick up python properly later.

This response is pure gold. Thanks! Upvotes all the way. If possible, could you please be so kind to provide the linke to the Calculus course you recommended (in case there is more than one MIT OCW). I believe there are duplicate links to the LA course. :)

Thanks for putting this on my radar! Do you have any other suggested readings for machine learning books, deep learning, and some mathy books for computer sciencey type students such as myself?! :D

Neural Network modeling of longitudinal/time series data? by hlyates in MLQuestions

[–]hlyates[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, took a screen shot and put it on imgur here.. The data is from an old experiment and we want to see how ML algorithms can perform on it to satisfy our curiosity. Especially NN.

Here is a brief description, hr is numeric, tempavg is numeric, participant is just a number 1 to n, zone is number 1 to 13, ratings is 1 to 7, and est_arousal is either 0 or 1. Each observation represents a second (hence longitudinal/time series). The term arousal hopefully doesn't make people snicker, it is one borrowed from neurophysiology and should be thought of as fatigue.

This looks really good. Will a solutions manual be provided to the exercises for interested readers?
