The need for insights LLMs like ChatGPT, Claude 2, Gemini, and Mistral captivate the world with their articulateness and erudition. Yet these large language models remain black boxes, concealing the intricate machinery powering their responses. Their prowess at generating human-quality text outstrips our prowess at understanding how their machine minds function. But as artificial intelligence…

From the OmniXAI, Shapash, and Dalex interpretability packages to the Boruta, Relief, and Random Forest feature selection algorithms Image created by the author at DALL-E“We are our choices.” —Jean-Paul Sartre We live in the era of artificial intelligence, mostly because of the incredible advancement of Large Language Models (LLMs). As important as it is…

A deep dive into Stable Diffusion and its inpainting variant for interior design In this fast-paced world that we live in and after the pandemic, many of us realised that having a pleasant environment like home to escape from reality is priceless and a goal to be pursued. Whether you are looking for a Scandinavian,…

An in-depth exploration of histograms and KDE A histogram is a graph that visualizes the frequency of numerical data. It is commonly used in data science and statistics to have a raw estimate of the distribution of a dataset. Kernel density estimation (KDE) is a method for estimating the probability density function (PDF) of a…

In the trade flow maps, I aimed to represent two-way trade relationships between countries. For example, the export from Nepal to India would be represented by the first arrow (A1-A2) and the import by Nepal from India would be represented by a second arrow (A3-A4). In this way, each country pair relationship would require four…

I would dare to say that DWH is the most…

Using batting stats from Major League Baseball’s 2023 season Shohei Ohtani, photo by Erik Drost on Flikr, CC BY 2.0Outlier detection is an unsupervised machine learning task to identify anomalies (unusual observations) within a given data set. This task is helpful in many real-world cases where our available dataset is already “contaminated” by anomalies. Scikit-learn…

Understand the logic behind the fundamental algorithm used inside the gradient descent In time series analysis, there is often a need to understand the trend direction of a sequence by taking into account previous values. Approximation of the next values in a sequence can be performed in several ways, including the usage of simple…

Recall that Rule 6, from Part 1, shows how to make Rust SIMD algorithms fully generic across type and LANES. We next need to pick our algorithm and set LANES. In this rule, we’ll see how to use the popular criterion crate to benchmark and evaluate our algorithms and options. In the context of range-set-blaze,…
