This document provides an introduction to machine learning with Apache Spark. It discusses what machine learning and artificial intelligence are, different types of learning including supervised and unsupervised, variable types, Spark's MLlib library and algorithms like Naive Bayes, model testing, and where to learn more about machine learning. It also advertises an upcoming Spark demo and suggestions for future lecture topics.
If there is one crucial thing in building ML models, this would be the data preparation. That is the process of transforming raw data to a state where machine learning algorithms could be run to disclose insights and make predictions. Data preparation involves analysis, depends on the nature of the problem and the particular algorithms. As far as there are knowledge and experience involved, there is no such thing as automation, which makes the role of the data scientist the key to success.
ML is trendy and Microsoft already have more than 10 services to support ML. So we will focus on tools like Azure ML Workbench and Python for data preparation, review some common tricks to approach data and experiment in Azure ML Studio.
Apply chinese radicals into neural machine translation: deeper than character...Lifeng (Aaron) Han
?
The document proposes incorporating Chinese radicals into neural machine translation models. It discusses related work incorporating word and character level information into neural MT. The proposed model combines radical-level MT with an attention-based neural model, representing input text with word, character, and radical combinations. Experiments show the character+radical and word+radical models outperform baselines on standard MT evaluation metrics using a Chinese-English dataset. Future work includes improving model optimization and testing on additional data.

This document discusses aspect based sentiment analysis using recurrent neural networks. It describes annotating review data and developing a GUI for annotation. An API was created to extract aspect terms. A recurrent neural network model was implemented using Deeplearning4j with backpropagation through time to classify inputs. The system was trained on 1/3 of the data and achieved accuracy on the test data. Challenges included not reaching 100% accuracy and most terms being unrelated to aspects. Future work proposed using additional features and different neural network architectures.
A tremendous backlog of predictive modeling problems in the industry and short supply of trained data scientists have spiked interest in automation over the last few years. A new academic field, AutoML, has emerged. However, there is a significant gap between the topics that are academically interesting and automation capabilities that are necessary to solve real-world industrial problems end-to-end. An even greater challenge is enabling a non-expert to build a robust and trustworthy AI solution for their company. In this talk, we¡¯ll discuss what an industry-grade AutoML system consists of and the scientific and engineering challenges of building it.
This document discusses entity linking, which is the task of finding topics in text by linking surface forms to topics represented by Wikipedia URIs. It describes a statistical method inspired by DBpedia Spotlight that builds an annotation model from Wikipedia data by extracting statistics on surface forms, topics, and their associations. These statistics are then used to annotate new text by deciding whether to annotate surface forms, which topic they refer to, and addressing challenges like ambiguity through rules and probability adjustments.

Efficient recommender systems are critical for the success of many industries, such as job recommendation, news recommendation, ecommerce, etc. This talk will illustrate how to build an efficient document recommender system by leveraging Natural Language Processing(NLP) and Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). The end-to-end flow of the document recommender system is build on AWS at scale, using Analytics Zoo for Spark and BigDL. The system first processes text rich documents into embeddings by incorporating Global Vectors (GloVe), then trains a K-means model using native Spark APIs to cluster users into several groups. The system further trains a recommender model for each group, and gives an ensemble prediction for each test record. By adopting the end-to-end pipeline of Analytics Zoo solution, we saw about 10% improvement of mean reciprocal ranking and 6% of precision respectively compared to the search recommendations for a job recommendation study.

This document summarizes a presentation about babysitting your ORM with a custom TFS build. The presentation discusses integrating ORM performance analysis into your ALM process using TFS and a profiling tool. It reviews ORMs and CI/TFS, demonstrates why measuring an ORM's behavior is important using examples, and shows a demo of writing tests, committing code through a gated check-in, and viewing profiling results on individual tests to detect issues like N+1 queries. The goal is to apply simple ideas and best practices to gain real, measurable ROI from monitoring ORM performance in your builds and tests.
Ensemble machine learning methods are often used when the true prediction function is not easily approximated by a single algorithm. Practitioners may prefer ensemble algorithms when model performance is valued above other factors such as model complexity and training time. The Super Learner algorithm, also called "stacking", learns the optimal combination of the base learner fits. The latest version of H2O now contains a "Stacked Ensemble" method, which allows the user to stack H2O models into a Super Learner. The Stacked Ensemble method is the the native H2O version of stacking, previously only available in the h2oEnsemble R package, and now enables stacking from all the H2O APIs: Python, R, Scala, etc.

Data analysis is the process of inspecting, cleaning, transforming, and modeling data to discover useful information, draw conclusions, and support decision-making. It involves applying various techniques and methods to extract insights from data sets, often with the goal of uncovering patterns, trends, relationships, or making predictions.
Here's an overview of the key steps and techniques involved in data analysis:
Data Collection: The first step in data analysis is gathering relevant data from various sources. This can include structured data from databases, spreadsheets, or surveys, as well as unstructured data such as text documents, social media posts, or sensor readings.
Data Cleaning and Preprocessing: Once the data is collected, it often needs to be cleaned and preprocessed to ensure its quality and suitability for analysis. This involves handling missing values, removing duplicates, addressing inconsistencies, and transforming data into a suitable format for analysis.
Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA): EDA involves examining and understanding the data through summary statistics, visualizations, and statistical techniques. It helps identify patterns, distributions, outliers, and potential relationships between variables. EDA also helps in formulating hypotheses and guiding further analysis.
Data Modeling and Statistical Analysis: In this step, various statistical techniques and models are applied to the data to gain deeper insights. This can include descriptive statistics, inferential statistics, hypothesis testing, regression analysis, time series analysis, clustering, classification, and more. The choice of techniques depends on the nature of the data and the research questions being addressed.
Data Visualization: Data visualization plays a crucial role in data analysis. It involves creating meaningful and visually appealing representations of data through charts, graphs, plots, and interactive dashboards. Visualizations help in communicating insights effectively and spotting trends or patterns that may be difficult to identify in raw data.
Interpretation and Conclusion: Once the analysis is performed, the findings need to be interpreted in the context of the problem or research objectives. Conclusions are drawn based on the results, and recommendations or insights are provided to stakeholders or decision-makers.
Reporting and Communication: The final step is to present the results and findings of the data analysis in a clear and concise manner. This can be in the form of reports, presentations, or interactive visualizations. Effective communication of the analysis results is crucial for stakeholders to understand and make informed decisions based on the insights gained.
Data analysis is widely used in various fields, including business, finance, marketing, healthcare, social sciences, and more. It plays a crucial role in extracting value from data, supporting evidence-based decision-making, and driving actionable insig

20. Features
? Always starting with ?table¡±
? Rows are data points
? Columns are variables/features
? Dense ¨C All fields are filled
? Sparse ¨C Only ?non-zero¡± data
? Feature hashing
?John likes to watch movies.
?Mary likes movies too.
?John also likes football.
?John likes to watch movies. Mary likes too.
John also likes to watch football games.¡±
Dictionary: {"John": 1, "likes": 2, "to": 3, "watch": 4, "movies": 5, "also": 6, "football": 7,
"games": 8, "Mary": 9, "too": 10}
Matrix: [[1 2 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 1] [1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 0 0]]
