Kernel methods give a systematic and principled approach to training learning machines and the good generalization performance achieved can be readily justified using statistical learning theory or Bayesian arguments. We describe how to use kernel methods for classification, regression and novelty detection and in each case we find that training can be reduced to optimization of a convex cost function.

 

If you've ever asked yourself: "How do I choose the covariance function for a Gaussian process?" this is the page for you. Here you'll find concrete advice on how to choose a covariance function for your problem, or better yet, make your own.

 

This tutorial aims to provide an intuitive understanding of the Gaussian processes regression. Gaussian processes regression (GPR) models have been widely used in machine learning applications because of their representation flexibility and inherent uncertainty measures over predictions.

 

Has nice interactive examples and UMAP vs t-SNE

 

Broadly speaking, Machine Learning refers to the automated identification of patterns in data. As such it has been a fertile ground for new statistical and algorithmic developments. The purpose of this course is to provide a mathematically rigorous introduction to these developments with emphasis on methods and their analysis.

 

Includes lectures, lecture notes and assignments.

A good set of best practices for deployment that isn't language-specific

Coding nowadays is a big part of ML and while it's important that the model works well, it's also important that the code is written properly too.

Link is the general python version, ML-specific version here: https://github.com/davified/clean-code-ml

Video version: https://bit.ly/2yGDyqT

 

Introduces neural networks, the convolution operation, a few critical machine learning concepts and some state-of-the-art CNN models. Includes a hands-on Matlab tutorial (and code) demonstrating the model configuration, training process, and performance evaluation using the MNIST dataset.

It's not a required ingredient for sunscreen to work, it's just to make it more water resistant (it stays on your skin longer) so those chemicals are typically used in sunscreen that's marked for water/sports applications. You can buy PFAS free sunscreen too

Largely by avoiding waterproof or water resistant skincare products such as sunscreen and makeup. Also avoid using nonstick cookware.

Um the first part of 2 and the 2nd part of 2 are two very different things. I know lots of people who pass the language test to get into college but make a lot of grammatical errors. Also basically require spellcheck/chatgpt to write a basic email. Also even my roommate makes grammatical errors in conversation and she has to do her job in her second language. You seem bilingual to me, seems kind of silly you seem to think you need to spent a year in England or something to be considered bilingual.

I'm a big fan of Endless Ocean 2 which came out in 2009 but you need to use Dolphin to run it on PC (also torrent the disc files unless you can find a disc copy). Also it's still the best diving game out there which is kind of crazy considering how old it is

Tbh I think an instance not enforcing tagging content as nsfw is probably very strong grounds for blocking imo

It’s not like you could have polled users that hadn’t joined yet anyways. Maybe the blocked list could be made more visible so people could be informed early on before they get too invested in their account?

What about filtering on the frontend like in Boost?

Idk for everyone else, but when I was on reddit once I had set up the subreddits I wanted to see, I really spent 99% on my time on just those. Every so often I would leave or join subreddits but it was rare. Like if people are not doing searches as often then the lag is more tolerable. Plus, won't content from larger and older instances be indexed by search engines eventually? Right now because so many communities are being created on so many different instances, it's more obvious that the searching is laggy but things will surely settle down as time passes.

The thing that's missing here most is the niche communities (I'm talking about like the ended 10 years ago tv shows and people are still posting about them). On the other hand, I noticed while most countries have 1 or 2 communities, my country already has at least 7 for specific locations and people still want to make more so it feels very much like home already
