The article discusses an interactive machine learning tool that enables analysts to interrogate modern forecasting models for time series data, promoting human-machine teaming to improve model management in telecoms maintenance.
This article introduces interpretable clustering, a field that aims to provide insights into the characteristics of clusters formed by clustering algorithms. It discusses the limitations of traditional clustering methods and highlights the benefits of interpretable clustering in understanding data patterns.
Gemma Scope is an open-source, multi-scale, high-throughput microscope system that combines brightfield, fluorescence, and confocal microscopy, designed for imaging large samples like brain tissue.
An article discussing the importance of explainability in machine learning and the challenges posed by neural networks. It highlights the difficulties in understanding the decision-making process of complex models and the need for more transparency in AI development.
This article explains the concept and use of Friedman's H-statistic for finding interactions in machine learning models.
- The H-stat is a non-parametric method that works well with ordinal variables, and it's useful when the interaction is not linear.
- The H-stat compares the average rank of the response variable for each level of the predictor variable, considering all possible pairs of levels.
- The H-stat calculates the sum of these rank differences and normalizes it by the total number of observations and the number of levels in the predictor variable.
- The lower the H-stat, the stronger the interaction effect.
- The article provides a step-by-step process for calculating the H-stat, using an example with a hypothetical dataset about the effects of asbestos exposure on lung cancer for smokers and non-smokers.
- The author also discusses the assumptions of the H-stat and its limitations, such as the need for balanced data and the inability to detect interactions between more than two variables.
- Study on insect wing hinge control mechanics was conducted by researchers at California Institute of Technology.
- The study utilized a genetically encoded calcium indicator to image steering muscles activity in flies while tracking 3D wing motion.
- A Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) was trained to predict wing motion from steering muscle activity and wingbeat frequency.
- An encoder-decoder was employed to predict the role of individual sclerites on wing motion.
- Virtual experiments were carried out to assess the impact of modulating wing motion via steering muscle activity on aerodynamic forces.
- The study concludes that the insect wing hinge is a complex and evolutionarily significant skeletal structure.
Generating counterfactual explanations got a lot easier with CFNOW, but what are counterfactual explanations, and how can I use them?
