Speedml Machine Learning Speed Start

 Speedml is a Python package for speed starting machine learning projects.

The speedml.com website documents API use cases, behind-the-scenes implementation, features, best practices, and demos in detail.

To see Speedml in action run or download the notebook Titanic Solution Using Speedml which walks through an end-to-end machine learning solution documenting features of the Speedml API.

Latest Speedml release is always available on the PyPi website.

Install Speedml

On a clean system start by installing the awesome Anaconda Python distribution

XGBoost is one of the most popular frameworks used by winning solutions solving for Machine Learning competitions on Kaggle. Speedml makes it easy to get started with XGBoost:

conda install -c https://conda.anaconda.org/akode xgboost

Install Speedml package using pip like so:

pip install speedml

Popular. Best packages together

Speedml already imports and properly initializes the popular ML packages including pandas, numpy, sklearn, xgboost, and matplotlib. All you need to do is import speedml to get started:

from speedml import Speedml

Rapid. Machine learning speed start

Coding is up to 3X faster when using Speedml because of (1) iterative development, (2) linear workflow, and (3) component-based API.

These three lines of Speedml code (a) load the training, test datasets, (b) define the target and unique id features, (c) plot the feature correlation matrix heatmap for numerical features, (d) perform a detailed EDA returning 10-15 observations and next steps for making the datasets model ready:

sml = Speedml('train.csv', 'test.csv',

             target='Survived', uid='PassengerId')

sml.plot.correlate ()

sml.eda()

 

Easy. Concise commands with sensible defaults

A notebook using Speedml reduces coding required by up to 70%. Speedml API implements methods requiring zero to minimal number of parameters, working on sensible defaults.

Call to this single method replaces empty values in the entire dataframe with median value for numerical features and most common values for text features:

sml.feature.impute()

Productive. Intuitive linear workflow

Understanding machine learning fundamentals is a breeze with Speedml as we have designed the API to follow a linear workflow with sensible prerequisites and intuitive next steps.

These three lines of Speedml code perform feature engineering by replacing null values, extracting a new feature matching a regular expression, and dropping a feature that is no longer required:

sml.feature.fillna(a='Cabin', new='Z')

sml.feature.extract(new='Deck', a='Cabin', regex='([A-Z]){1}')

sml.feature.drop(['Cabin'])

Hope you enjoy using Speedml in your projects. Watch this space as we intend to update Speedml frequently with more cool features.

SpeedML speeds up the process of machine learning by providing different functionalities which makes Exploratory Data Analysis an easy task. We just need to import SpeedML and we can create a large variety of plots, clean the data, add and drop features, etc.

SpeedML imports and properly initializes the popular ML packages which are already defined in it including pandas, numpy, sklearn, xgboost, and matplotlib.

Koala: A Dialogue Model for Academic Research

  Koala: A Dialogue Model for Academic Research Introduction The accidental leak of the weights associated with Meta AI’s LLM LLaMA has sparked tremendous innovation in the open-source LLM space. Since the furious leak, we have seen models like Alpaca, Vicuna, ChatLlama, and several others expand on the foundations of LLaMA to build innovative conversational agents that match the capabilities of ChatGPT. One of the latest additions to the list is Koala (yes, I know, another animal-named model), a chatbot created by Berkeley AI Research (BAIR) that fine-tunes LLaMA on conversations gathered from the internet. The core goal of Koala is to highlight the balance between mega-large closed-source LLMs and smaller, open-source LLMs. BAIR’s thesis is that smaller models can achieve performance that matches mega models like ChatGPT with a fraction of the cost while also improving in areas such as fine-tuning, transparency, and many others. Koala Koala is a version of LLaMA fine-tu...

  What is FLAN-T5? Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been making strides in recent times, with advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) and their applications taking much of the credit. One of the most prominent models in this domain is GPT-3, developed by OpenAI. However, it is not the only model making waves. FLAN-T5, developed by Google Research, has been getting a lot of eyes on it as a potential alternative to GPT-3. ·        FLAN stands for “Fine-tuned Language Net”         ·        T-5 stands for “Text-To-Text Transfer Transformer” Back in 2019, Google's first published a paper "Exploring the Limits of Transfer Learning with a Unified Text-to-Text Transformer", introducing a novel where they introduced the original T5 architecture. The pretrained encoder-decoder model worked well on multiple tasks, and particlarly well suited for translation and summarization tasks. In 2022 G...
