Fitting Support Vector Machines via Quadratic Programming

Domino Data Lab

Selecting the optimal decision boundary, however, is not a straightforward process. The distance from an arbitrary data point (boldsymbol{x}_i) to the optimal hyperplane in our case is given by. We now turn our attention to the problem of finding the optimal hyperplane. Derivation of a Linear SVM.

You know the markets shake and the accompanying Swine Flu epidemic of 2015 and 2016, the Japanese tsunami and the Thailand floods in 2011 that shook up the high-tech value chain quite a bit, the great financial crisis and the accompanying H1N1 outbreak in 2008-2009, MERS and SARS before that in 2003.

The Lean Analytics Cycle: Metrics > Hypothesis > Experiment > Act

Occam's Razor

Sometimes, we escape the clutches of this sub optimal existence and do pick good metrics or engage in simple A/B testing. You're choosing only one metric because you want to optimize it. Remember that the raw number is not the only important part, we would also measure statistical significance. But it is not routine.

Adding Common Sense to Machine Learning with TensorFlow Lattice

The Unofficial Google Data Science Blog

On the one hand, basic statistical models (e.g. TF Lattice offers semantic regularizers that can be applied to models of varying complexity, from simple Generalized Additive Models, to flexible fully interacting models called lattices, to deep models that mix in arbitrary TF and Keras layers. monotonicity, diminishing returns).

They also require advanced skills in statistics, experimental design, causal inference, and so on – more than most data science teams will have. Perhaps if machine learning were solely being used to optimize advertising or ecommerce, then Agile-ish notions could serve well enough. evaluate the effects of models on human subjects.

Data Science at The New York Times

Domino Data Lab

When he retired in 2009 he had some time on his hands. Here is a picture of The New York Times on its birthday in 1851, and for the vast majority of its lifespan this is pretty much what the user experience of interacting with The New York Times looks like. They want to know what’s the optimal treatment.
