In the previous post, I used the Doc2Vec neural network architecture to compute the similarities between my blog posts. In this second post I investigate the results further by examining clusters in graphs.

One of the things I learned at Facebook is the power of recommendations. Examples are People You May Know (PYMK), Groups You May Like (GYML) and Pages You May Like (PYML). Inspired by these, I am planning to add an Articles You May Like widget to Bytepawn, based on the semantic similarity of blog posts. I use the Doc2Vec neural network architecture to compute the similarity between my blog posts, and return the top 3 recommendations for each page.

One of the most common Data Science tasks in a business setting is timeseries forecasting. I was curious what methods and libraries other Data Scientists use, so I posted an "Ask HN" on Hacker News. The post generated 89 comments, most of them high-quality. This is my summary of the discussion.

I show toy implementations of Python decorator patterns such as @measure, @repeat, @trace, @count, @singleton, and @app.route (made famous by Flask).

Recently I was considering whether to introduce some CS style algorithmic interview questions into our Data Science hiring loop, since having an understanding of algorithms and data structures can be useful for Data Scientists. Not having done this soft of interview for a few years I picked up my copy of Daily Coding Problem and starting solving a few problems to refresh my feeling for what it feels like as a candidate, and whether it would give us any useful signals.

I describe a real world use-case where a simple, brute force search based solution worked really well, making more sophisticated Machine Learning unnecessary.

I measure how the classification accuracy of quantized Autoencoder neural network varies with encoding bits on MNIST digits.
Marton Trencseni - Sun 04 April 2021 • Tagged with python, pytorch, cnn, torchvision, mnist, autoencoder
I investigate how much information an Autoencoder neural network encodes for MNIST digits.

Sometimes I get to put on my Data Engineering hat for a few days. I enjoy this because I like to move up and down the Data Science stack and I try to keep myself sharp technically. Recently I was able to spend a few days optimizing our Airflow ETL for speed.

I use simulated self-play by ranking episodes by summed reward. Game outcomes are divided in two by cutting at the median, winners are assigned +1 rewards, losers are assigned -1 rewards, like in games like Go and Chess. Unlike naive policy gradient descent used in previous posts, this version solves all OpenAI classic control problems, albeit slowly.
