Logistic regression is a widely used Machine Learning method for binary classification. It is also a good stepping stone for understanding Neural Networks. In this post I will present the theory behind it including a derivation of the Logistic Regression Cost Function gradient.
This will be the last post in the Linear Regression series. We will look at the problems of over or under fitting data along with non-linear feature variables.
In this post I will present the matrix/vector form of the Linear Regression problem and derive the “exact” solution for the parameters.
In this post I’ll be working up, analyzing, visualizing, and doing Gradient Descent for Linear Regression. It’s a Jupyter notebook with all the code for plots and functions in Python available on my github account.
In Part 3 of this series on Linear Regression I will go into more detail about the Model and Cost function. Including several graphs that will hopefully give insight into the their nature and serve as a reference for developing algorithms in the next post.
In Part 2 of this series on Linear Regression I will pull a data-set of house sale prices and “features” from Kaggle and explore the data in a Jupyter notebook with pandas and seaborn. We will extract a good subset of data to use for our example analysis of the linear regression algorithms.
Linear regression could possibly be considered the “Hello World” problem of Machine Learning. It’s implementation touches on many of the fundamental ideas and problems in this field. I’ll give you some guidance for understanding and implementation of this fundamental idea.
This is the start of a series of posts on Machine Learning and Data Science. I’ll be exploring the algorithms and tools of Machine Learning and Data Science. It will be tutorials, guides, how-to, reviews and “real world” application. The post will be done using Juypter notebooks and the notebooks will be available on GitHub.
NVIDIA has released the Titan Xp which is an update to the Titan X Pascal (they both use the Pascal GPU core). They also recently released the GTX1080Ti which proved to be every bit as good at the Titan X Pascal but at a much lower price. The new Titan Xp does offer better performance and is currently their fastest GeForce card. How much faster? I decided to find out by running a large Deep Learning image classification job to see how it performs for GPU accelerated Machine Learning.
A few weeks ago I wrote a blog post titled Should You Learn to Program with Python. If you read that and decided the answer is yes then this post is for you.
