CNN with TensorFlow
In this post, I will cover my first attempt at learning about convolutional neural networks.
EDA with R
In this post, I will go over the what is perhaps the most important step in using R to analyze data–tidying. In fact, provided that many R functions work bes...
Classifying Movie Reviews: Keras
In this blog post, I will continue on from the last post in experimenting with Keras, mainly referencing François Chollet’s text, Machine Learning with Pytho...
MNIST with Keras
In this post, I will discuss my first attempt at creating a neural network with Keras, in which I will classify hand-written digits using the MNIST dataset.
Dive into Distributions
In this post, let’s dive into distributions.
Data Transformation with R
