When you are getting started with machine learning, logistic regression is one of the first algorithms you’ll add to your toolbox. It's a simple and robust algorithm, commonly used for binary classification tasks.
Consider a binary classification problem with classes 0 and 1. Logistic regression fits a logistic or sigmoid function to the input…
How GPT models’ view on occupations evolved over time Word cloud showing the top occupations generated by GPT-4 when prompted with “The woman/man works as a …”.

A team of researchers from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, Carnegie Mellon University, Georgia Institute of Technology, University of California Berkeley, Meta AI Research, and Mistral AI has developed a universal navigation system called GO To Any Thing (GOAT). This system is designed for extended autonomous operation in home and warehouse environments. GOAT is a…
Experience AI's course and resources are expanding on a global scale AI has the potential to drive one of the greatest social, economic and scientific transformations in history, and we need to ensure the technology benefits as many people as possible. One important way to do this is through access to AI education to develop…
Big vision-language models, or LVLMs, can interpret visual cues and provide easy replies for users to interact with. This is accomplished by skillfully fusing large language models (LLMs) with large-scale visual instruction finetuning. Nevertheless, LVLMs only need hand-crafted or LLM-generated datasets for alignment by supervised fine-tuning (SFT). Although it works well to change LVLMs from…
Remote work has surged in popularity, transforming how you approach your daily tasks and where you perform them. This shift means you’re no longer confined to the office, allowing for flexibility and convenience. Yet, with this freedom comes a crucial responsibility — ensuring data security.
You must understand compliance regulations thoroughly because they are…
Leave management, a vital facet of human resources, involves administering employee time-off requests, ensuring compliance with laws and balancing business operations. This process encompasses managing various types of leaves, such as vacation, sick, parental, and public holidays. In the modern workplace, effective leave management is crucial. Well-managed leave policies can enhance employee engagement and productivity,…

In today’s tech-savvy world, we're surrounded by mind-blowing AI-powered wonders: voice assistants answering our questions, smart cameras identifying faces, and self-driving cars navigating roads. They're like the superheroes of our digital age! However, making these technological wonders work smoothly on our everyday devices is tougher than it seems. These…
In the world of data science and machine learning, logistic regression is a powerful and widely-used algorithm. Despite its name, it has nothing to do with handling logistics or moving goods. Instead, it is a fundamental tool for classification tasks, helping us predict whether something belongs to one of two categories, like yes/no, true/false, or…
A Marriage of Machine Learning and Optimization Algorithms | by Wouter van Heeswijk, PhD | Dec, 2023
How pattern detection and pattern exploitation might elevate each other to a new level Instead of benchmark optimization- and machine learning algorithms against each other, we should consider how they can strengthen each other [Photo by Wedding Dreamz on Unsplash]Although most of us don’t see it, optimization algorithms (OAs) are at work everywhere. They plan…
