1D-CNN based Fully Convolutional Model for Handwriting Recognition

Handwriting

Handwriting Recognition also termed as HTR(Handwritten Text Recognition) is a machine learning method that aims at giving the machines an ability to read human handwriting from real-world documents(images). The traditional Optical Character Recognition systems(OCR systems) are trained to understand the variations and font-styles in the machine-printed text(from documents/images) and they work really well in practice(example-Tesseract). Handwriting Recognition on… Read More »

Sampling Techniques in Statistics for Machine Learning

Sampling | dropsofai.com

Data is like a fuel to a Data Scientist. Any study or research work requires a good amount of quality data. The term ‘good amount of quality data’ changes with the kind of study one wants to do. Various sampling techniques are there to get you just that. As a researcher, you may want to study-different animals, changing… Read More »

Mining Interpretable Rules from Classification Models

Classification Rules

As data scientists, we come across numerous classification problems every once in a while. Ensemble learning techniques like bagging and boosting typically give us quite high classification performances. But all such models are much complex and hard to interpret. To make sure that everything is working fine and also to understand the prediction results/logic better, it becomes necessary… Read More »

OpenCV: Introduction and Simple Tricks in Python

OpenCV

OpenCV-AI-toolkit was first introduced nearly 20 years ago(in 1999) by Intel Research and it is getting richer and better every year since then. OpenCV was primarily written in C++ language but has bindings for Python, Java, and MATLAB that makes it easy to integrate into different ML/AI projects. You will find almost every Computer Vision(Computer Graphics based) project… Read More »

Deep Learning with PyTorch: First Neural Network

PyTorch: neural netoworks

Deep Learning is part of the Machine Learning family that deals with creating the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based models. ANNs are used for both supervised as well as unsupervised learning tasks. Deep Learning is extensively used in tasks like-object detection, language translations, speech recognition, face detection, and recognition..etc. Let’s create our First Neural Network with PyTorch- In… Read More »

Deep Learning with PyTorch: Introduction

PyTorch

Overview PyTorch is a deep learning framework developed by Facebook’s AI Research lab(FAIR) about four years ago (in 2016). This PyTorch framework was designed to make our machine learning and deep learning project journey super fast and smooth. Pytorch is written in Python, C++, and CUDA and is supported across Linux, macOS, and Windows platforms. It also has… Read More »

Explaining Reinforcement Learning to your next-door-neighbor

RL overview

An intuitive introduction to Reinforcement Learning Reinforcement Learning(RL) is a very interesting sub-field of Machine Learning(ML). While other ML techniques rely on static input-output pairs to learn the hidden rules and then apply those rules on the unseen data to get the possible outcomes. A Reinforcement Learning algorithm tends to learn the best decisions automatically over time.  RL… Read More »

Boosting your Sequence Generation Performance with ‘Beam Search + Language model’ decoding

when, why and how of ‘ Beam Search ‘ and LM decoding Whenever Image Processing, Audio data Analysis or Natural language processing (NLP) tasks are concerned, Deep learning has proved to be an ideal choice and has shown outstanding outcomes. Neural Network-based model architectures are really good at understanding complex patterns as well as generating meaningful and realistic… Read More »

Python Predicts PUBG Mobile

PUBG

A simple approach to predict future frames in video (PUBG) data using Python Introduction : It is impossible to predict the future! ( Unless you have a time stone -:) ). But predicting the immediate future is not very hard for us (Humans). We do it in the real-life quite often — while playing a game or watching a movie one can… Read More »
