On the Hunt for Patterns: from Hippocrates to Supercomputers

Ontotext

These are the so-called supercomputers, led by a smart legion of researchers and practitioners in the fields of data-driven knowledge discovery. Thanks to their might, now scientists and practitioners can develop innovative ways of collecting, storing, processing, and, ultimately, finding patterns in data.

ML internals: Synthetic Minority Oversampling (SMOTE) Technique

Domino Data Lab

Working with highly imbalanced data can be problematic in several aspects: Distorted performance metrics — In a highly imbalanced dataset, say a binary dataset with a class ratio of 98:2, an algorithm that always predicts the majority class and completely ignores the minority class will still be 98% correct.

Explaining black-box models using attribute importance, PDPs, and LIME

Domino Data Lab

but it generally relies on measuring the entropy in the change of predictions given a perturbation of a feature. Instead, you should focus on how techniques like PDPs and LIME can be used to gain insights into the model’s inner workings and how you can add those to your data science toolbox. References.
