DS Book of the Day-"Outliers"-Malcolm Gladwell. He analyzes observations the way we should look @ DS probs. Is there a reason we observe trends? Look at the data & find the reasons instead of inserting reasons & trying to make the data fit. Mark III Systems gladwellbooks.com/titles/malcolm…

Just published Part 2 of my series on Keras Callbacks. This one is on ModelCheckpoint. Super useful. Actually, it's critical. Take a look! ironmanjohn.com/home/keras-mod… Mark III Systems #keras #tensorflow #ai #ArtificialIntelligence #NeuralNetworks #deeplearning #hyperparameters

Signed up for Ironman Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, a couple of days ago. Ironman #7 - June 21, 2021. Please COVID.....let us get back to normal by then. A family vacation to the great Pacific Northwest will be fun! #ironman #Triathlon

Excited to learn more about NVIDIA's cutting-edge work in AI at 1PM CST tomorrow. Learn more about Vanderbilt Radiology's AI Educational Series and register at trending.markiiisys.com/vumc #AI #Radiology

The DS book of the Day is a fun one "Cartoon Guide to Statistics". For an aspiring data scientist, it presents an entertaining overview of what can be a daunting subject to the beginner. Easy presentation, nicely written. larrygonick.com/titles/science… Mark III Systems #stats

Just posted part 3 of 4 part series on Keras Callbacks. This one is about the Tensorboard callback that allows you to see what's happening in the training as it is happening. Great feature that I use all the time! ironmanjohn.com/home/keras-ten… Mark III Systems #tensorflow #tensorboard

One of the drawbacks of BERT, a state-of-the-art framework for NLP is that with QA, it can only handle short passages. Looks like Google may have fixed that problem with Big Bird. No code released yet, so the jury is still out. arxiv.org/pdf/2007.14062… Mark III Systems #nlp #ai

I ❤️Nvidia RAPIDs. Vibhu Jawa wrote an article about using RAPIDs & HuggingFace for NLP on GPU, not CPU. Speedup is amazing. cuDF tokenizer is up to 483x faster than CPU. Great job combining multiple products for incredible speedups. medium.com/rapids-ai/stat… Mark III Systems #NLP

New blog post about the presentation I gave for the @VUMCradiology AI in Radiology webinar series titled "The Greatest Thing to Happen to Computing in 10 Years." Thanks to Brent Savoie MD JD & Mark III Systems for allowing me to speak. ironmanjohn.com/home/using-ai-… #gpu #ai #radiology

Dr. Camille Ehre (Camille Ehre) @ Marsico Lung Inst in NC has released some amazing pics of the SARS-Cov-2 virus (coronavirus) infecting lung cells. Fascinating! Original (uncolored) imgs published in New England Journal of Med nejm.org/doi/full/10.10… Mark III Systems #SARSCoV2

Uber has created AI that uses selfies to verify that both drivers and riders are wearing masks or they won't let them ride. Great job Uber for keeping people safe even when restrictions may not be popular! youtube.com/watch?v=kWrcdQ… Mark III Systems #covid19 #ai #computervision

I am proud to have been able to participate in the interview with Holly Newman ! I'm always happy to discuss AI and data science, especially in the context of healthcare and research. soundcloud.com/user-438874054… Mark III Systems #ai #aiforgood #aiinhealthcare #ArtificialIntelligence

Just updated my blog with information about the podcast I did with Holly Newman for the Dell Technologies Healthcare PowerChat series titled "Managing Data in Research." I would love to get your feedback! ironmanjohn.com/home/managing-… Mark III Systems

LitCovid is a database of over 68,000 peer-review articles about COVID & SARS-CoV-2. If you want the definitive source of information about COVID, this is the place to look. I have a new blog giving more details & citations. ironmanjohn.com/home/litcovid-… Mark III Systems #LitCovid

Just posted Part 4 of my blog series on Keras Callbacks, this time on LearningRateScheduler - updating learning rates on the fly. Updating the LR can be the difference between a good model & bad model. Hope you find it helpful! ironmanjohn.com/home/keras-lea… Mark III Systems #Keras

I just added a new blog post on performing text classification with logistic regression, random forest, & XGBoost. The dataset is abstracts from Pubmed. Much more interesting than classifying tweets or Yelp reviews! ironmanjohn.com/home/text-clas… Mark III Systems #nlp #MachineLearning
