Neural network – Let’s try to demystify all this a little bit (3) – Application to images

The complex architecture that we have detailed in detail in the previous sections is a multi-layer perceptron (MLP). This is the classic architecture of the neural network. Nevertheless, depending on the type of data used to input neural models (images, voice signal, etc.), more specific architectures have been implemented. To work with images, for example, Read more about Neural network – Let’s try to demystify all this a little bit (3) – Application to images[…]

Neural network – Let’s try to demystify all this a little bit (2) – To go a little further

With everything that has been presented in Part 1, I hope that you will have understood how a neural network works in general, with the two main steps of forward and back propagation. And that’s not bad enough, it’s a lot of concepts to mature! In this part, without going into too much detail either, Read more about Neural network – Let’s try to demystify all this a little bit (2) – To go a little further[…]

Neural network – Let’s try to demystify all this a little bit (1) – Neural architecture

Unless you have emerged from a period of cryogenics or have been locked in a bunker for several years, it is unlikely that you have never heard of a neural network. Having heard about it is one thing. Understanding what can be used is another. Knowing how it works is a whole different matter. If Read more about Neural network – Let’s try to demystify all this a little bit (1) – Neural architecture[…]

Fuzzy logic or the extension of classical logic

The concept of fuzzy logic was proposed in the 1960s by Lotfi Zadeh, an Iranian mathematician and computer scientist, to tackle the limits of good old classical logic. Which limits are we talking about? Let’s take a first very simple example on the temperature of the water that flows when you take a shower. If Read more about Fuzzy logic or the extension of classical logic[…]

Data Visualisation with R and Shiny

Visualizing your data is THE most important part during your project management (we often talk about “Data Visualization” or Dataviz”). Whether upstream to understand a little bit about how the data are arranged or downstream so that a decision-maker can make an informed decision, there is always a time when we will have to think Read more about Data Visualisation with R and Shiny[…]

Outliers, abnormal data, Let’s take a look at the situation

Few will tell you that their data is all pretty and clean and can be used as is in decision models… That’s a fact. When a dataset is collected, no one is immune to the risk of biased or outliers coming up and disrupting the quality of the data. And there are plenty of sources Read more about Outliers, abnormal data, Let’s take a look at the situation[…]
