The Grand Janitor Blog V2. My Machine Learning Portfolio. Building a simple SMT. August 5, 2015. Which Tutorial to Follow? If you never run an SMT training before, perhaps the more solid way to start is to follow the "Baseline System" link. A better name could be "How to train a baseline system"). At here, there is a rather detail tutorial on how to train a sets of models from WMT13 mini news commentary. Use source of boost, make sure libbz2 was first installed. Then life would be much easier. BLEU = 23&...

The Grand Janitor Blog V2. My Machine Learning Portfolio. How to Compile a Debugged Version of Python. November 25, 2013. For the most time, you shouldn't need to care about the internals of python. It is usually thought as a tool and assumed to be bug-free. Of course, there are moments you should question these assumptions. Sometimes, the interpreter fails itself. It could segfault, it could be too slow. You can go to stare at the source code and hope that you find the issues. Or you can just. Remember,...

The Grand Janitor Blog V2. My Machine Learning Portfolio. August 9, 2015. I was usually in a group, try to tackle a task. We might miss a certain implementation, a certain proof, or even some of us lack of some simple knowledge of certain programming language. And you can guess the consequence: all planning efforts stop here. One of us would say "Let's not pursue that path. There's too much risk and unknown.". Another example, suppose you don't have an implementation of say linear regression. What should...

The Grand Janitor Blog V2. My Machine Learning Portfolio. Monthly Archives: October 2013. The Grand Janitor Blog V2" Started. October 4, 2013. I moved " The Grand Janitor Blog. To WordPress. Nothing much, Blogger is simply too constraining. I don't like the theme. I can't really customize a thing. I can't put an ad there if I want to sell something. So it was really annoying and it's time to change. But then what's new with V2? It means I need to grok ASR from theory to implementation. Perhaps more in th...

The Grand Janitor Blog V2. My Machine Learning Portfolio. Experience in Real-Life Machine Learning. December 10, 2015. I have been refreshing myself on the general topic of machine learning. Mostly motivated by job requirements as well as my own curiosity. That's why you saw my review post on the famed Andrew Ng's class. And I have been taking the Dragomir Radev's NLP class. As well as the Machine Learning Specialization. By Emily Fox and Carlos Guestrin [1]. When you are at work, it's. Eventually, as on...

The Grand Janitor Blog V2. My Machine Learning Portfolio. Different HMMSets in HTK. August 2, 2015. HTK was my first speech toolkit. It's fun to use and you can learn a lot of ASR by following the manual carefully and deliberately. If you are still using HMM/GMM technology (interesting but why? Here is a thread a year ago on why there are different HMM Types in HTK. I'm a student who's looking into the HTK source code to get some idea. The design choices of HTK. Shared, tied, discrete. Pools for each str...

The Grand Janitor Blog V2. My Machine Learning Portfolio. Some Speculations On Why Microsoft Tay Collapsed. March 28, 2016. Was meant to be yet another highly intelligent A.I. program which fulfill human's long standing dream: a machine which can truly converse. But as you know, Tay fails spectacularly. To me, this is a highly unusual event, part of it is that Microsoft's another conversation agent, Xiaoice, was extremely successful in China. Should be weeded out before launch. While I always love the pr...

I was binge watching (no kidding) all videos from Andrew Ng's Coursera ML class. May be I want to write a review at a certain point. In short, it is highly recommendable for anyone who works in data science and machine learning to go through the class and spend some time to finish the homework step-by-step. Also you can find the lecture notes at here. So how ...
