Unit Testing for Data Science

Introduction Writing tests has always been poison to me. And I’m still not at the point of writing tests for everything, but I have been coming around. Enough to say that I am actually having fun writing them. …

Zero Shot Classification with Huggingface 🤗 + Sentence Transformers

Introduction When it comes to text classification Bert/ Distilbert is our goto. However, quite often we lack labels to start off our classification process. Huggingface released a tool about a year ago to do exactly this but by using BART. The concept behind zero shot classification is to match the text…

Machine Learning and Deep Learning Course

Just wanted to announce my course on Machine Learning on Udemy. I’m covering a whole range of topics from A-Z of machine learning. It even covers the basics of python if you are not familiar with it. So the things we will cover are: ✅ Deep Learning with Tensorflow!!! ✅ Bayesian inference ✅ Data Analysis with Pandas ✅ Algorithms from scratch using Numpy ✅ Using Sklearn to its full effect ✅ Model Deployment ✅ Model Diagnostics ✅ Natural Language Processing ✅ Unsupervised Learning ✅ Natual Language Processing with Spacy ✅ Time series modelling with FB Prophet

Multilingual CLIP with Huggingface + PyTorch Lightning

This is a walkthrough of training CLIP by OpenAI. CLIP was designed to put both images and text into a new projected space such that they can map to each other by simply looking at dot products. It’s not everyday that you get train a image model and language model…

Deep Reinforcement Learning

Pong from Pixels: Keras Version — This is a follow on from Andrej Karpathy’s (AK) blog post on reinforcement learning (RL). What I’m hoping to do with this post is to hopefully simplify Karpathy’s post, and take out the maths (thanks to Keras). …

Running VSCode on AWS

Edit: Turns out that XQuartz is super laggy, and is not worth the time. If anyone figures out how to speed things up would love to know. This method will however work for opening GUI applications in general. This might not be a big deal to most people, but if…

Deep Quantile Regression

One area that Deep Learning has not explored extensively is the uncertainty in estimates. Most Deep Learning frameworks currently focus on giving a best estimate as defined by a loss function. Occasionally something beyond a point estimate is required to make a decision. This is where a distribution would be…

Docker for Data Science

Docker is a tool that simplifies the installation process for software engineers. Coming from a statistics background I used to care very little about how to install software and would occasionally spend a few days trying to resolve system configuration issues. Enter the god-send Docker almighty. Think of Docker as…

Sequence to sequence tutorial

This is one of the most powerful concepts in deep learning that started off in translation but has since moved on to question answering systems (Siri, Cortana etc.), audio transcribing etc. As the name suggests it’s useful for converting from one sequence to another. The main idea behind this is…
