Practical Machine Learning with R and Python – Part 4
This is the 4th installment of my ‘Practical Machine Learning with R and Python’ series. In this part I discuss classification with Support Vector Machines (SVMs), using both a Linear and a Radial basis kernel, and Decision Trees. Further, a closer look is taken at some of the metrics associated with binary classification, namely accuracy vs ...

Deep Learning from first principles in Python, R and Octave – Part 1
“You don’t perceive objects as they are. You perceive them as you are.” “Your interpretation of physical objects has everything to do with the historical trajectory of your brain – and little to do with the objects themselves.” “The brain generates its own reality, even before it receives information coming in from the eyes and the ...

Deep Learning from first principles in Python, R and Octave – Part 2
“What does the world outside your head really ‘look’ like? Not only is there no color, there’s also no sound: the compression and expansion of air is picked up by the ears, and turned into electrical signals. The brain then presents these signals to us as mellifluous tones and swishes and clatters and jangles. Reality is also odorless: th...

Deep Learning from first principles in Python, R and Octave – Part 3
“Once upon a time, I, Chuang Tzu, dreamt I was a butterfly, fluttering hither and thither, to all intents and purposes a butterfly. I was conscious only of following my fancies as a butterfly, and was unconscious of my individuality as a man. Suddenly, I awoke, and there I lay, myself again. Now I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I...
