Ask Slater, Machine Learning
Should we remove duplicates from a data-set while training a Machine Learning algorithm (shallow and/or deep methods)?
It…depends. Mostly it depends on what your goals are and what your dataset looks like. There are two big […]

Should a machine learning beginner go straight for deep learning?
Let me be clear: I love deep learning. It has radically improved the scope of problems that machine learning can […]
Ask Slater
Why do machine learning algorithms require large amounts of computer space for all kinds of datasets?
Depends a bit on which model type you’re talking about, but for the purposes of illustration I’m going to assume […]
Ask Slater
What is one thing that human intelligence can do but artificial intelligence can’t?
Let me tackle this from a slightly more practical perspective. I think the standard issue with this kind of question […]
Ask Slater
What are some of the best artificial intelligence/machine learning journals?
Machine learning is a very interesting field. Part of the reason for this is that most of the novel work […]
Ask Slater
Is Euclidean distance meaningful for high dimensional data?
The short answer is no. At high dimensions, Euclidean distance loses pretty much all meaning. However, it’s not something that’s […]
