Before jumping into a career in Data Science, it’s best to look at the market from a different lens — When Harvard Business Review came out with its article labelling Data Science the sexiest job of the 21st century, it grabbed a lot of eyeballs. …

A Python library that changes your approach towards Machine Vision — When I released Caer back in August of this year, I have received hundreds of emails from researchers and computer vision enthusiasts around the world thanking me for releasing the library. Their good (and bad) feedback pushed and motivated me to take the library to another level. Today, I’m excited…

The Swiss Army Knife of Programming Languages has its problems and may be replaced by other languages better suited for the task — Ever since Python was released in the early 1990s, it has generated a lot of hype. Sure, it took the programming community at least 2 decades to appreciate its existence, but since then, it has far surpassed C, C#, Java and even Javascript in popularity. Although Python dominates the fields…

A step-by-step implementation of a Dogs vs Cats classifier in Keras — Almost everything around you today is empowered by Machine Learning and Deep Learning. From the way Google Photos recognizes your face from a bunch of people in an image, to autonomous vehicles, these algorithms have changed the landscape of machine-centred thinking. Among the most recent (and exciting) contributions is in…

Included: 5 Steps to building ANY Deep Learning Model! — For those in a hurry, here is the course: For others: A couple of months back, I wrote a post on how to get into Data Science. …

A Powerful Learning Guide for Serious Data Scientists — Data Science can be overwhelming. There are plenty who’ll tell you that in order to become a data scientist, you’ll have to learn heavy mathematics and computer science — Statistics, Calculus, Linear Algebra, Distributed Computing, Clustering and more. It’s easy to feel like an antelope caught in the headlights —…

In Deep Learning, everyone seems to recommend using a GPU. What is it, can you do without one, and who is it exactly for? — Any data scientist or machine learning enthusiast who has been trying to elicit performance of training models at scale will at some point hit a cap and start to experience various degrees of processing lag. Tasks that take minutes with smaller training sets may now take more hours — in…

The bare essentials to get up and running + Helpful Resources — Data Science has become a revolutionary technology that everyone seems to talk about. Hailed as the ‘sexiest job of the 21st century’, Data Science is a buzzword with very few people knowing about the technology in its true sense. …

Covid-19 is probably the Earth trying to tell us something. It’s done so in the past — this might the other time. — Our Universe has been around for a little around 13.7 billion years. Perhaps the most widely accepted theory is that it formed after the “Big Bang”, a cosmological theory explaining the origin(s) of the Universe. The Earth wasn’t formed too very long ago either. When the solar system settled into…
