JPMRC’s Data Assessment Tool and the Next Generation of Data-Driven Lethality
Updating the After-Action Review: JPMRC’s Data Assessment Tool and the Next Generation of Data-Driven Lethality
It’s an essential building block of the way the Army trains and operates: the after-action review. A unit, from the squad level to echelons above brigade, completes a training exercise, or even a real-world operation, and turns to this mechanism to identify what went well, where there are opportunities for improvement, and what changes can be implemented next time. It’s how we keep our swords at their sharpest, our readiness and lethality maximized.
Calorie and Macronutrient Goals, Breakdowns and 57 New Foods
Nutrify 1.2 is here! What is Nutrify? Nutrify is a food tracking and education app focused on whole foods. This update brings several helpful features for those who'd like to know what their calorie and macronutrient intakes are per whole food. It also adds a bunch of new whole foods/drinks to the Nutridex! Premium updates: Set custom calorie and macronutrient goals alongside food-specific and category-specific goals in the Summary tab.
Introducing Nutrify | A Pokédex for food
Nutrify is an iOS application designed to make learning about whole foods fun and in turn, reduce the intake of ultra-processed foods. It works on the premise of “take a photo of food and learn about it”. As in, it uses computer vision to identify different whole foods (we focus on whole foods rather than barcodes) and displays relevant nutrition and storage information about them. Nutrify is for anyone who wants to learn more about foods as well as about their own food habits and trends.
Apple M3 Machine Learning Speed Test
How do Apple’s M3, M3 Pro and M3 Max go against TensorFlow and PyTorch? I’ve been using my M1 Pro MacBook Pro 14-inch for the past two years. I bought the upgraded version with extra RAM, GPU cores and storage to future proof it. And it hasn’t missed a beat. But Apple’s latest release of the M3 series got me curious. I watched the presentation and saw a bunch of graphs about it being their biggest GPU performance leap in years.
Adaptation vs. Education
My grades sucked at high school. And I failed my first two years of university. Then got top of the class for the next three years. In school I'd rather play Call of Duty than do assignments or study for a test. I ran the best Esports team in Australia before they called it Esports. Me and a few school friends. Every night we'd get on and play for hours making strategies and practicing. We had to. The match was on Friday and again on Saturday if we won. Against other good teams.
What if you did the exact opposite? (like the rogue bees do)
Bees have a dance to indicate to others where food is. It’s called the waggle dance. Great name. But a significant portion of bees in a hive completely ignore the waggle dance and venture off on their own accord. Scientists studied this and were perplexed as to why. It seemed the rogue bees had no direction at all (like a modern high-school graduate). Their adventures were random. Eventually the researchers realised, the actions of the rogue bees were paramount to the longevity of the hive.
The Unofficial PyTorch Optimization Loop Song
A fun jingle to help you remember the steps in a PyTorch training loop Every tutorial needs a song. I’ve been learning PyTorch. And if you’re learning PyTorch too but have come from frameworks such as Scikit-Learn or TensorFlow, writing your own training and testing loops may be a foreign concept (both of these frameworks have a beautiful model.fit()system). To help myself learn I wrote a jingle. So I’d never forget. You can see the video version of me singing this song on YouTube.
So you want to learn machine learning? Learn slower.
Opinion One of my favourite articles of all time is Teach Yourself Programming in Ten Years by Peter Norvig. The synopsis of the article is to learn slower, as in, building good skills, worthwhile skills like programming take time. You see courses teaching speed learning or speed reading, or do X in 24-hours and get fit in six weeks. And it’s clear the modern world loves speed, but speed is a marketing tactic.
Apple’s M1 Pro and M1 Max Outperform Google Colab by up to 54%
The main keyboard I used is attached to a MacBook Pro. I’m typing this on a MacBook Pro. And being the tech nerd I am, when Apple released a couple of new MacBook Pro’s with upgraded hardware: M1 Pro, M1 Max chips and redesigns and all the rest, I decided, I better test them out. For context, I make videos on machine learning, write machine learning code and teach machine learning. That’s what this article focuses on.

State of AI Report 2021 Summary
Although vast, the State of AI Report collects a snapshot of what’s happening in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) every year. I say snapshot because there’s a lot going on. Even with over 180 slides in the official report, there’s still much more the report missed out on. In saying that, this summary is a summary of a summary. So there are many things I’ve missed out from the State of AI Report 2021 and the following points are biased by what interests me most.
Activity Classification with TensorFlow
Photo by Timon Studler on Unsplash A few months ago, I read an article by Daniel Bourke on replicating Airbnb’s amenity detection system using Detectron 2. The article outlined Daniel’s process for running short, 42-day (6-week) projects, first developed by Basecamp to try and ship useful software quickly. Why 6-weeks? Because 42-days is long enough to get something useful done, but not so long that if it doesn’t work you’ve wasted a significant amount of time. I liked the idea.
How the World’s Biggest Companies Design Machine Learning-Powered Applications
· Editors' PicksFeaturesDeep DivesGrowContribute ML code is only a small piece of the puzzle. I’m often asked, “what kind of machine learning project should I work on?” And I usually answer with “follow your curiosity.” Why? Because of how experimental machine learning is, it’s in your best interest to figure things out through tinkering. By trying things that might not work. However, machine learning projects are no longer works of magic.
Advance BERT model via transferring knowledge from Cross-Encoders to Bi-Encoders
Data Augmentation Method to improve SBERT Bi-Encoders for Pairwise Sentence Scoring Tasks (Semantic sentence tasks) Photo by Tim Mossholder on Unsplash Currently, the state-of-the-art architecture models for NLP usually reuse the BERT model which was pre-trained on large text corpora such as Wikipedia and the Toronto Books Corpus as the baseline [1].
Why a Data Science Mentor Can Help You in 2021
Photo by Joshua Ness on Unsplash Having a mentor in data science can be beneficial to progress your career and your learning. When I began my role as a data scientist, I adopted two mentors. One was a senior person who had been there since the team’s conception, and the other was a technical fellow who was looking to mentor younger women. The first 6 to 8 months of my job, I spent learning from my mentors.
Song lyrics generation with Artificial Intelligence (RNN)
Note: If you know enough about Machine Learning and Recurrent Neural Networks (and you are just interested in the code), please skip this part. Let’s try to give a brief (non technical) overview of the theory that is behind this project. Saying Artificial Intelligence is saying so many things, and it collapses into saying almost nothing.

As 20 melhores séries de 2020
Reprodução: TVline As séries em 2020 não foram apenas uma diversão, mas uma questão de sobrevivência. No meio da pandemia, ficamos trancafiados (pelo menos, alguns de nós) e dependentes da produção cultural (que tantos querem cortar) para conseguirmos uma fuga necessária da realidade. E as séries e minisséries não decepcionaram neste ano.

Apple’s New M1 Chip is a Machine Learning Beast
Speed testing a (nearly) top-spec Intel-based 16-inch MacBook Pro versus the new Apple silicon MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro I watched the keynote and saw the graphs, the battery life, the instant wake. And they got me. I started to think, how could one of these new M1-powered MacBooks make their way into my life? Of course, I didn’t need one but I kept wondering what story could I tell myself to justify purchasing another computer? Then I had it.

The 10 Commandments of Self-Taught Machine Learning Engineers
Coding can get a little grey. Surround yourself with colour. Photo by Sam Bourke. The terms commandments and self-taught are not to be taken lightly. One must be in charge of their own education and enlightenment. Ignore this and someone else will choose it for you. Any effective machine learning pipeline leverages the crossover of mathematics, code and data. Each is only as effective as the other.
Three Important Steps in Machine Learning
Opinion Where do most data scientists fail? There is more to machine learning than selecting the right algorithms and modeling. Most of the machine learning enthusiasts limit the understanding of machine learning process to just the modelling process. Even for early professionals, it might take some time to realize the whole machine learning process in the real world.

How I’d study machine learning - if I’d be starting out today
I’m underground, back where it all started. Sitting at the hidden cafe where I first met Mike. I’d beenstudying in my bedroomfor the past 9-months and decided to step out of the cave. Half of me was concerned about having to pay $19 for breakfast (unless it’s Christmas, driving Uber on the weekends isn’t very lucrative), the other half about whether any of this study I’d been doing online meant anything.

God Punishes Bad and Evil People
Yes, majority or minority doesn’t matter for God while punishing Everyone is not the same for God. Only good people are the ones whom God support, but punishes bad and evil people, no matter if such people are in majority or minority. Means, numbers doesn’t matter to God. What matters to him is only goodness and helping and supporting good people, even if he has to punish the entire population of the world. So, bad, wrong, and evil people you must not have any wrong expectations from God.

How the North Carolina Electorate Has Changed
Democrats’ path back to a legislative majority The key to understanding North Carolina’s electorate is to grasp just how quickly our state is changing. North Carolina is one of the fastest-growing states in the country, with a steady influx of both domestic and foreign migrants that has fueled a long economic expansion. That expansion has created an electorate that is becoming younger, more diverse and much less tethered to the regressive politics of North Carolina’s past.
Made in Europe: How will XR transform future remote working and collaboration?
The Covid-19 pandemic had provided a market opportunity for VR meetings and collaborative platforms. Since the lockdown started, there has been a significant increase in demand for remote working, virtual conferencing and other collaboration tools. These platforms have not only served to communicate with our colleagues, but they have also been an escape route to interact with family and friends in “virtual social gatherings”. Why use VR/AR technologies for virtual meetings?
