Is a neural network really neural? Or even a network? Here, suggestions for avoiding confusion. (more…)

In the last few months, I have had several people contact me about their enthusiasm for venturing into the world of data science and using Machine Learning (ML) techniques to probe statistical regularities and build impeccable data-driven products. Howeve... (more…)

Terry Tao entitled his 2006 Fields Medal Lecture  "The Dichotomy between structure and randomness" and state the Structure Theorem: Every ob... (more…)

The workflow for building machine learning models often ends at the evaluation stage: you have achieved an acceptable accuracy, and “ta-da! Mission Accomplished.”... (more…)

This article is a high-level introduction to an efficient worfklow for optimizing runtime performance of machine learning systems running on the GPU. Using traces from Nsight Systems to show real production scenarios, I introduce a set of common utilizati... (more…)
