Posts tagged Classification
In machine learning, a type of problem that seeks to place (classify) a data sample into a single category or “class.” Often, classification problems are modeled to choose one category (class) out of two. These are binary classification problems. Problems where more than two categories (classes) are available are called “multiclass classification” problems. See Also binary classification model.

Import Zeppelin notes from GitHub or JSON in Zeppelin 0.5.6 on Amazon EMR

Feed: AWS Big Data Blog.
Jonathan Fritz is a Senior Product Manager for Amazon EMR
Many Amazon EMR customers use Zeppelin to create interactive notebooks to run workloads with Spark using Scala, Python, and SQL. These customers have found Amazon EMR to be a great platform for running Zeppelin because of strong integration with other AWS services and the ability to quickly create a fully configured Spark environment. Many customers have already discovered Amazon S3 to be a useful way to durably store and move their notebook files between EMR clusters.
With the latest Zeppelin release (0.5.6) included ... Read More

Key tools of Big Data for Transformation: Review & Case Study
Feed: Featured Posts - Hadoop360 Author: Andrei Macsin Guest blog post by Syed Danish Ali Review The challenges of big data can be captured succinctly as follows[1],[2]: Volume; ever increasing volume which breaks down traditional data-holding capacity Variety; more and more heterogeneous data from many formats and types are bombarding the data environment Velocity; more and more data is time sensitive now; frequent updates are taking place instead of relying on historical old data and data in real time is being generated now by the internet of things, amongst others. Veracity; how valid and reliable is the data? Since now we ... Read More
Learning from Imbalanced Classes – Silicon Valley Data Science

Feed: Planet big data Author: Meg Blanchette August 25th, 2016 If you’re fresh from a machine learning course, chances are most of the datasets you used were fairly easy. Among other things, when you built classifiers, the example classes were balanced, meaning there were approximately the same number of examples of each class. Instructors usually employ cleaned up datasets so as to concentrate on teaching specific algorithms or techniques without getting distracted by other issues. Usually you’re shown examples like the figure below in two dimensions, with points representing examples and different colors (or shapes) of the points representing the ... Read More
Deep Learning Part 2: Transfer Learning and Fine-tuning Deep Convolutional Neural Networks

Feed: Planet big data Author: David Smith by Anusua Trivedi, Microsoft Data Scientist This is a blog series in several parts — where I describe my experiences and go deep into the reasons behind my choices. In Part 1, I discussed the pros and cons of different symbolic frameworks, and my reasons for choosing Theano (with Lasagne) as my platform of choice. Part 2 of this blog series is based on my upcoming talk at The Data Science Conference, 2016. Here in Part 2, I describe Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs) and how Transfer learning and Fine-tuning helps better the training ... Read More
Machine Learning Becomes Mainstream: How to Increase Your Competitive Advantage
Feed: Featured Blog Posts - Data Science Central Author: Ronald van Loon First there was big data – extremely large data sets that made it possible to use data analytics to reveal patterns and trends, allowing businesses to improve customer relations and production efficiency. Then came fast data analytics – the application of big data analytics in real-time to help solve issues with customer relations, security, and other challenges before they became problems. Now, with machine learning, the concepts of big data and fast data analytics can be used in combination with artificial intelligence (AI) to avoid these problems and ... Read More
