How to Use Elastic Net Regularization with any GLM
Generalized Linear Models (GLMs) are one of the most widely used inferential modeling techniques. Their simplicity makes them easy to interpret, so when communicating causal inference to stakeholders they’re a very effective tool. Elastic net regularization, a widely used regularization […]
Basic Concepts in Machine Learning
What are the basic concepts in machine learning? I found that the best way to discover and get a handle on the basic concepts in machine learning is to review the introduction chapters to machine learning textbooks and to watch the […]
An AI algorithm inspired by how kids learn is harder to confuse
Information firehose: The standard practice for teaching a machine-learning algorithm is to give it all the details at once. Say you’re building an image classification system to recognize different species of animals. You show it examples of each species and label […]

AI Powers a New Innovation Machine By BCG
Innovation, meet automation. This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship. In a few short years, artificial intelligence (AI) and its subfield, machine learning (ML), have gone from futuristic vision to near-mainstream capability at many large companies, including in […]
How AI Could Help Small Businesses
On a Thursday morning at 5:30 AM, Alex sipped her latte, her elbows atop the service counter. Each day at this time, the sunlight through the front window blanketed her coffee shop and she enjoyed a few moments of peace […]
A member of Goldman Sachs’ hottest tech team left for an AI ‘lab’
Back in the day when technology was in its nascence and relatively few people worked in computing, top PhDs gravitated towards ‘labs.’ Bell Labs, for example, was the place to be in the post war years. Now it seems that an […]
