    I first came across the notion of the “antilibrary” in Maria Popova’s beautiful post reflecting on “Why Unread Books Are More Valuable to Our Lives than Read Ones“. The term was coined by Nassim Nicholas Taleb (author of The Black Swan) who suggests that as your knowledge grows, so too should your accumulation of unread…

    I created this cheat sheet to remind myself of some of the foundational concepts of neural networks. My goal was to create a two-page at-a-glance document that could serve as a reminder on how each component of a neural network works and how each fits into the bigger picture. It isn’t designed as a beginner’s…

    There are very few mailing lists that I remain subscribed to AND faithfully open on a regular basis. But Analytics Vidhya always has something interesting, something complicated explained simply, a step-by-step tutorial… Take, for example, the article I received this morning 10 matplotlib tricks – I so totally need this – it seems like a…

    An example use case is this: you have a list of customers who have bought the various products that you sell. You want to know where the overlaps are, for example: How many customers who bought the Blue Widget also bought the Green Widget? Or what percentage of customers who bought the Blue Widget also…

    Calculus is a big topic, but by and large, there are quite specific aspects of calculus that come into machine learning and in particular deep learning algorithms. This article is not intended to explain how and why things are as they are; rather it’s my own personal cheat sheet for when I need to remember…

    I find there are a lot of tutorials and toy examples on convolutional neural networks – so many ways to skin an MNIST cat! – but not so many on other types of scenarios. So I’ve decided to put together a quick sample notebook on regression using the bike-share dataset. After learning the basics of neural…

    Sometime in 2017, I started this crazy journey… I finally knew what I wanted to be when I was big: a data scientist! It’s funny how, having this very clear goal in mind, I was able to set out with enthusiasm despite being able to see all the obstacles in my path (like having the…
