Rebasing is the process of moving or combining a sequence of commits to a new base commit. Rebasing is most useful and easily visualized in the context of a feature branching workflow. The visualized general process is as the following: From a content perspective, rebasing is changing the base of your branch from one commit to another making it appear as if you’d created your branch from a...
Predict coronavirus deaths by days
As the pandemic is going on with an increasing number of deaths daily, let create a simple model to predict the deaths caused by 2019-nCoV (Wuhan Coronavirus). The 2019-nCoV death data I grab the death toll data from World Meters website. DateDaily DeathsFeb. 889Feb. 786……Jan. 2416Jan. 238 Plot the data Firstly, we transform the table into a Pandas data frame. death_toll =...
Common Loss functions and their uses – quick note
Machines learn by means of a loss function which reflects how well a specific model performs with the given data. If predictions deviate too much from actual results, loss function would yield a very large value. Gradually, with function, parameters are modified accordingly to reduce the error in prediction. In this article, we will quickly review some common loss functions and their usage in the...
Machine learning quick note
Machine learning is a terminology to describe the uses statistical techniques to give computer systems the ability to “learn” (e.g., progressively improve performance on a specific task) from data, without being explicitly programmed. You can think of machine learning as the brains behind AI technologies, and AI technologies do the actions. More technically, machine learning...
