The path to learning story of Restricted Boltzmann Machine is bumpy. First, we needed to learn what are Energy-Based Models, the group of machine learning models that Restricted Boltzmann Machine is a part of. Then we need to explore functionalities…
This major idea, first presented by Ian Goodfellow from the University of Montreal back in 2014, is still regarded as one of the biggest breakthroughs in the field. Facebook’s AI research director Yann LeCun called this concept “the most interesting idea in the last 10 years in Machine Learning”.
In one of the previous articles, we started our journey into the world of Autoencoders. We saw that they are one special kind of neural networks, that was able to utilize techniques of supervised learning for unsupervised learning. One might…
Not many people know, but apart from doing all techy stuff, I sometimes make music. I even have few EP releases and one album. They are terrible, but hey, it is something to pass the time. Anyhow, after getting deeper…
Learn to predict stock prices using HMM in this article by Ankur Ankan, an open source enthusiast, and Abinash Panda, a data scientist who has worked at multiple start-ups. A Hidden Markov Model (HMM) is a specific case of the state space…
In one of the previous articles, we started learning about Restricted Boltzmann Machine. It was quite a journey since we first had to figure out what energy-based models are, and then to find out how a standard Boltzmann Machine functions.…
So far in our artificial neural network series, we have covered only neural networks that are using supervised learning. To be more precise, we only explored neural networks that have input and output data available to them during the learning process. Based…
In the previous three articles, we explored the world of Self-Organizing Maps. First, we got some theoretical background on the subject. Then in the second article, we saw how we could implement Self-Organizing Maps using TensorFlow. After that, in the…
Have you ever wondered how Amazon Alexa can understand what are you saying? For me, the first experience with these devices was mind-blowing. As a nerdy kid, I always dreamed of having a voice-controlled computer and experiencing something like that…
Deep learning and artificial intelligence are quite buzz words now, aren't they? However, this field is not quite as new as the majority of people thinks. We as humans were always interested in the way we think and the structure of our brain.
