Abstract In our case the two main topics were Transfer learning and Fine-tuning, in order for us to understand what does it mean and how to use it. Transfer learning is a research problem in machine learning whose purpose is to store knowledge of a pre-trained model and transfer it to…

This is a a summarize of the following article :ImageNet Classification with Deep Convolutional Neural Networks, required for Holberton School Project Introduction Until recently, datasets of labeled images were relatively small — on the order of tens of thousands of images. Simple recognition tasks can be solved quite well with datasets…

Introduction “Regularization is a process that changes the result answer to be “simpler”. It is often used to obtain results for ill-posed problems or to prevent overfitting.” It is used in machine learning in order to obtain a better accuracy or avoid overfitting and speed up the training process of a…

Introduction In this article, I wanted to give you a little overview of some techniques to optimize your Neural Network, by influencing your gradient gradient descent and the scale of the data. It could help increasing the accuracy of the NNs and reduce it’s training cost, but be aware of overfitting…

Introduction — Activation Functions are mathematical functions applied at the output of an artificial neuron, it is named after the “Action potential” from biological neural networks. It served as a stimulation threshold equivalent, once it is reached it will result in the neural response. There is different types of Activation Function, serving…

Introduction — In this article, you will have an overview of our Portfolio project that we decided to call Survey Storm, the goal of this project was to provide a tool that will help people working with surveys and statistics. Letting them build custom surveys. …

What are Static Libraries ? It’s a collection of object files that can be used to link to programs without recompiling it’s source corde. It is less used that it was, as the compilation are faster nowadays and the main goal of a static library is saving recompilation time. …

Before introducing what is compilation and what are it’s different steps, know that we will use GCC (GNU Compiler Collection) to illustrate our examples, an optimizing compiler produced by the GNU project. It support different kind of programming languages such as : C (with gcc) C++ (with G++) Objective-C (with…

Hard links and Symbolic links are used as pointers to the files, referring to what (content, permissions, etc…) and where (location of the file) it is. What is the difference between those two ? Those are two differents way of doing, as seen above in the picture, we will talk what’s specific about each other and how to…
