In the previous tutorial here on SGD, I explored the way in which we can implement using PyTorch's built-in gradient calculation, loss, and optimization implementation. in our present discussion, we’ll continue exploring PyTorch by using the same constructs and using also using the built-in Linear module. Steps : Preparation Steps Prepare training Data Define…

A guide on implementing stochastic gradient descent using PyTorch. — In the previous tutorial here on SGD, I explored the way in which we can implement using Python. It was done using the simplest constructs of Python language. This time I am going to use some features of the PyTorch deep learning library to achieve the same. We‘ll first look…

A guide on checking how the publication trend with different keywords changed for the arXiv repository. — In this article, I am going to use a popular open access repository for scientific papers for analyzing papers in this repository. I’ll use the arXiv API with simple queries for this purpose and check how the publication trend with different keywords changed for this repository. Steps : Import required libraries.

Extracting data from wiki articles — In this short tutorial, I am going to use python and Wikipedia data. Non-technical users can jump directly to the end of the article starting from the results. Step 1 Import required libraries and Load Wikipedia data I am going to use the Wikipedia python API client to load Wikipedia page data that we are interested in. The link…

There are tons of articles to implement gradient descent in python however I wanted to do it in the simplest way possible with minimum coding and still covering all the concepts. …

The differences in spending and borrowing of Fiat vs Cryptocurrency — Following is another non-technical description of differences in uses of the normal and cryptocurrencies. Let’s assume that all the money you are left with is a $100 bill in your purse. For it to be a valid legal tender it must have been issued by some authorized agency. Let’s say…

A guide to using Python and NLP techniques for extraction of the history of the American revolutionary war. — In this short tutorial, I am going to use Python and its spaCy NLP library to extract named entities from a Wikipedia article on the American Revolutionary War. We are going to extract the most important persons, events, locations, and other entities from the article. …

Some Random Thoughts on the future of humanity — Have you ever thought about the books that are written but never read? Well not an exciting thought, right? It could be a dull and boring book and the writer must be so crazy that people simply give up the idea of reading such a book. You wish that book…
