The Path to Enhanced Analysis: Demystifying Dimensionality Reduction
Understanding the Basics Well, let’s get the ball rolling with a dinner party analogy. Imagine throwing a dinner party for a hundred guests – all fun and games, right? But keeping tabs on all of them is a nightmarish task. Now, imagine if you could group these guests into ten tables, based on similarities, like […]
Linear Regression: The Foundation of Predictive Analytics
Let’s chat about one of the most fundamental techniques in machine learning and statistics – Linear Regression, which forms the backbone of many advanced techniques, so it’s a great place to start. Understanding the Basics Linear Regression is like the Swiss Army knife of statistics. It’s a predictive modeling technique that finds the best-fitting straight […]
From Good to Great: The Impact of Regularization on Machine Learning Performance
Let’s talk about regularization in machine learning, a really handy concept that helps us build better predictive models. In machine learning, we’re often trying to make predictions based on data. For example, we might want to predict the price of a house based on its size, location, and other factors. To do this, we build […]

Maximizing Machine Learning Potential: Understanding the Types
Yo! Let’s talk about the different types of machine learning we’ve got out there. We’re gonna break it down based on the level of supervision the algorithms receive during training. This is called Supervised/Unsupervised Learning. Here are the four main categories: Supervised Learning: This is when the training data comes with labels, which are basically […]
Step-by-Step Guide: Installing TensorFlow on Windows
Hey there! Want to install Tensorflow on your Windows machine? No worries, I’ve got you covered! Just follow the steps mentioned below. First things first, head over to the Anaconda website and install version 3.6. Once you’ve done that, open the terminal and check your python version by running python -V. It should print out […]
Optimizing Your Search Algorithms: Notes on Quiescent Search and Branching Factor
Branching Factor The branching factor is the number of children at each node. The effective branching factor is the number of children generated by a "typical" node for a given search problem. Quiescent Search A full-width search sees everything up to its horizon, and nothing beyond. This is called the horizon effect. It’s like not […]
