Leverage Multicore For Faster Performance In Scikit-Learn

The world we all will live in a decade will completely be different, and complex than the current world.

As the world is getting complex, so is the underlying data. One of the challenges of machine learning is the increasing need for computational power and time to process the complex dataset.

Scikit-learn doesn’t support the GPU like Keras or TensorFlow, but we can leverage the multi-core CPU to execute several tasks in parallel.

In this article, we will see the process to accelerate the machine learning and shorten the time for building the model.

Scikit-Learn Is Still Rocking, Been Introduced To French President

Amilestone for open source projects — French President Emmanuel Macron has recently been introduced to Scikit-learn. In fact, in a recent tweet, Scikit-learn creator and Inria tenured research director, Gael Varoquaux announced the presentation of Scikit-Learn, with applications of machine learning in digital health, to the president of France.

He stated the advancement of this free software machine learning library — “started from the grassroots, built by a community, we are powering digital revolutions, adding transparency and independence.”

9 Guidelines to Master Scikit-learn without Giving Up in The Middle

Undoubtedly, Scikit-learn is one of the best machine learning libraries available today. There are several reasons for that. The consistency among Scikit-learn estimators is one reason. You cannot find such consistency in any other machine learning library. The .fit()/.predict() paradigm best describes the consistency. Another reason is that Scikit-learn has a variety of uses. It can be used for classification, regression, clustering, dimensionality reduction, anomaly detection.
Therefore, Scikit-learn is a must-have Python library in your data science toolkit. But, learning to use Scikit-learn is not straightforward. It’s not simple as you imagine. You have to set up some background before learning it. Even while you learning Scikit-learn, you should follow some guidelines and best practices. In this article, I’m happy to share 9 guidelines that worked for me to master the Scikit-learn without giving up the learning process in the middle. Whenever possible, I will include the links to my previous posts which will help you to set up the background and continue to learn the Scikit-learn.

Google Reveals "What is being Transferred” in Transfer Learning

Recently, researchers from Google proposed the solution of a very fundamental question in the machine learning community — What is being transferred in Transfer Learning? They explained various tools and analyses to address the fundamental question.

The ability to transfer the domain knowledge of one machine in which it is trained on to another where the data is usually scarce is one of the desired capabilities for machines. Researchers around the globe have been using transfer learning in various deep learning applications, including object detection, image classification, medical imaging tasks, among others.

5x Faster Scikit-Learn Parameter Tuning in 5 Lines of Code

Everyone knows about Scikit-Learn — it’s a staple for data scientists, offering dozens of easy-to-use machine learning algorithms. It also provides two out-of-the-box techniques to address hyperparameter tuning: Grid Search (GridSearchCV) and Random Search (RandomizedSearchCV).

Though effective, both techniques are brute-force approaches to finding the right hyperparameter configurations, which is an expensive and time-consuming process!
