    Applying Federated Machine Learning To Sensitive Healthcare Data At Rhino Health Sep 11, 2023
    Show notes

    Summary
    A core challenge of machine learning systems is getting access to quality data. This often means centralizing information in a single system, but that is impractical in highly regulated industries, such as healthchare. To address this hurdle Rhino Health is building a platform for federated learning on health data, so that everyone can maintain data privacy while benefiting from AI capabilities. In this episode Ittai Dayan explains the barriers to ML in healthcare and how they have designed the Rhino platform to overcome them.

    Using Machine Learning To Keep An Eye On The Planet Jun 17, 2023
    Show notes

    Summary
    Satellite imagery has given us a new perspective on our world, but it is limited by the field of view for the cameras. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) allows for collecting images through clouds and in the dark, giving us a more consistent means of collecting data. In order to identify interesting details in such a vast amount of data it is necessary to use the power of machine learning. ICEYE has a fleet of satellites continuously collecting information about our planet. In this episode Tapio Friberg shares how they are applying ML to that data set to provide useful insights about fires, floods, and other terrestrial phenomena.

    Solve The Cold Start Problem For Machine Learning By Letting Humans Teach The Computer With Aitomatic Sep 28, 2022

    Summary
    Machine learning is a data-hungry approach to problem solving. Unfortunately, there are a number of problems that would benefit from the automation provided by artificial intelligence capabilities that don’t come with troves of data to build from. Christopher Nguyen and his team at Aitomatic are working to address the "cold start" problem for ML by letting humans generate models by sharing their expertise through natural language. In this episode he explains how that works, the various ways that we can start to layer machine learning capabilities on top of each other, as well as the risks involved in doing so without incorporating lessons learned in the growth of the software industry.

    • Hello and welcome to the Machine Learning Podcast, the podcast about machine learning and how to bring it from idea to delivery.
    • Predibase is a low-code ML platform without low-code limits. Built on top of our open source foundations of Ludwig and Horovod, our platform allows you to train state-of-the-art ML and deep learning models on your datasets at scale. Our platform works on text, images, tabular, audio and multi-modal data using our novel compositional model architecture. We allow users to operationalize models on top of the modern data stack, through REST and PQL – an extension of SQL that puts predictive power in the hands of data practitioners. Go to themachinelearningpodcast.com/predibase today to learn more and try it out!

    Convert Your Unstructured Data To Embedding Vectors For More Efficient Machine Learning With Towhee Sep 21, 2022
    Show notes

    Summary
    Data is one of the core ingredients for machine learning, but the format in which it is understandable to humans is not a useful representation for models. Embedding vectors are a way to structure data in a way that is native to how models interpret and manipulate information. In this episode Frank Liu shares how the Towhee library simplifies the work of translating your unstructured data assets (e.g. images, audio, video, etc.) into embeddings that you can use efficiently for machine learning, and how it fits into your workflow for model development.

    • Hello and welcome to the Machine Learning Podcast, the podcast about machine learning and how to bring it from idea to delivery.
    • Building good ML models is hard, but testing them properly is even harder. At Deepchecks, they built an open-source testing framework that follows best practices, ensuring that your models behave as expected. Get started quickly using their built-in library of checks for testing and validating your model’s behavior and performance, and extend it to meet your specific needs as your model evolves. Accelerate your machine learning projects by building trust in your models and automating the testing that you used to do manually. Go to themachinelearningpodcast.com/deepchecks today to get started!
