In Japan, "Artificial Intelligence" comes to be a super star while "Data Scientist" is fading away
I published a post about the current status of "Data Scientist" in Japan, as a periodic follow-up analysis since two years ago. Its trend still remains, but it's beyond my anticipation at that time.Indeed growing trend of "Artificial Intelligence" in Japan is steeper than that in English, and "Data Scientist" is now getting to be forgotten by people, although in the global market data…See More

Overview and simple trial of Convolutional Neural Network with MXnet
Actually I've known about MXnet for weeks as one of the most popular library / packages in Kaggler, but just recently I heard bug fix has been almost done and some friends say the latest version looks stable, so at last I installed it.MXnet: https://github.com/dmlc/mxnetI think that the most important feature of MXnet is its implementation of…See More
Multivariate modeling vs. univariate modeling along human intuition: predicting taste of wine
I wrote a blog post inspired by Jamie Goode's book "Wine Science: The Application of Science in Winemaking".In this book, Goode argued that reductionistic approach cannot explain relationship between chemical ingredients and taste of wine. Indeed, we know not all high (alcohol) wines are excellent, although in general high wines are believed to be good. Usually taste of wine is affected by a complicated balance of many components such as sweetness, acid, tannin, density or others that are given…See More

Even without any "golden feature", multivariate modeling can work
A/B testing is widely used for online marketing, management of Internet ads or any other usual analytics. In general, people use it in order to look for "golden features (metrics)" that are vital points for growth hacking. To validate A/B testing, statistical hypothesis tests such as t-test are used and people are trying to find any metric with a significant effect across conditions. If you successfully find a metric with a significant difference between design A and B of a click button, you'll…See More

Decision tree vs. linearly separable or non-separable pattern
As a part of a series of posts discussing how a machine learning classifier works, I ran decision tree to classify a XY-plane, trained with XOR patterns or linearly separable patterns.1. Simple (non-overlapped) XOR patternIt worked well. Its decision boundary was drawn almost perfectly parallel to the assumed true boundary, i.e. XY axes.2. Complex (overlapped) XOR pattern without…See More
