  8. Euclidean distance euclidean distance (p ,q )= √∑ i =1

    n (p i −q i )2 Machine Learning: Similarity and metric learning
  9. manhattan distance(p ,q )=∑ i=1 n ∣(p i −q i

    )∣ Machine Learning: Similarity and metric learning Manhattan distance
  10. Pearson ' s correlation (p ,q )= ∑ i =1

    n (p i q i )− ∑ i =1 n p i ∑ i =1 n q i n √(∑ i =1 n p i 2 − (∑ i =1 n p i ) 2 n )(∑ i =1 n q i 2 − (∑ i =1 n q i ) 2 n ) Machine Learning: Similarity and metric learning Pearson's correlation
  11. Searches a large group of users for finding a small

    subset that have tastes like yours. Based on what this subset likes or dislikes the system can recommend you other items. Two main approaches: - User based filtering - Item based filtering Machine Learning: Similarity and metric learning Collaborative filtering
  12. Machine Learning: Similarity and metric learning User based filtering -

    based on ratings given to the items, we can measure the distance among users - we can recommend to the user the items that have the highest ratings among the closest users
  13. Machine Learning: Similarity and metric learning Is user based filtering

    good for - scalability? - sparse data? - quickly changing data?
  14. Machine Learning: Similarity and metric learning Is user based filtering

    good for - scalability? - sparse data? - quickly changing data? No, it's better to use item based filtering
  15. Machine Learning: Similarity and metric learning Euclidean distance for item

    based filtering: nothing has changed! - based on ratings got from the users, we can measure the distance among items - we can recommend an item to a user, getting the items that are closer to the highest rated by the user
  16. P (A∣B )= P (B∣A)P (A) P (B ) Machine

    Learning: Bayes' classifier Example: given a company where 70% of developers use Java and 30% use C++, and knowing that half of the Java developers always use enhanced for loop, if you look at the snippet: which is the probability that the developer who wrote it uses Java? for (int j=0; j<100; j++) { t = tests[j]; } P (A∣B )= P (B∣A)P (A) P (B ) Bayes' theorem
  17. P (A∣B )= P (B∣A)P (A) P (B ) Machine

  19. Machine Learning: Bayes' classifier Naive Bayes' classifier - supervised learning

    - trained on a set of known classes - computes probabilities of elements to be in a class - smoothing required P c (w 1 , .... ,w n )= ∏ i =1 n P (c∣w i ) ∏ i =1 n P (c∣w i )+∏ i=1 n (1−P (c∣w i ))
  20. Machine Learning: Bayes' classifier Naive Bayes' classifier Example - we

    want a classifier for Twitter messages - define a set of classes: {art, tech, home, events,.. } - trains the classifier with a set of alreay classified tweets - when a new tweet arrives, the classifier will (hopefully) tell us which class it belongs to
  21. Machine Learning: Bayes' classifier Sentiment analysis - define two classes:

    { +, - } - define a set of words: { like, enjoy, hate, bore, fun, …} - train a NBC with a set of known +/- comments - let NBC classify any new comment to know if +/- - performance is related to quality of training set
  22. Machine Learning: Clustering - Unsupervised learning - Different algorithms: -

    Hierarchical clustering - K-Means clustering - ... Clustering Common use cases: - navigation habits - online commerce - social/political attitudes - ...
  23. Machine Learning: Clustering K-Means aims at identifying cluster centroids, such

    that an item belonging to a cluster X, is closer to the centroid of cluster X than to the centroid of any other cluster. K-Means clustering
  24. Machine Learning: Clustering The algorithm requires a number of clusters

    to start, in this case 3. The centroids are placed in the item space, typically in random locations. K-Means clustering
  25. Machine Learning: Clustering The algorithm will then assign to each

    centroid all items that are closer to it than to any other centroid. K-Means clustering
  26. Machine Learning: Clustering The centroids are then moved to the

    center of mass of the items in the clusters. K-Means clustering
  27. Machine Learning: Clustering A new iteration occurs, taking into account

    the new centroid positions. K-Means clustering
  28. Machine Learning: Clustering The centroids are again moved to the

    center of mass of the items in the clusters. K-Means clustering
  29. Machine Learning: Clustering The centroids are again moved to the

    center of mass of the items in the clusters. K-Means clustering
  30. Machine Learning: Clustering Another iteration occurs, taking into account the

    new centroid positions. Note that this time the cluster membership did not change. The cluster centers will not move anymore. K-Means clustering

  35. Machine Learning: Neural networks Neural networks Backpropagation Phase 1: Propagation

    - Forward propagation of a training pattern's input through the neural network in order to generate the propagation's output activations - Backward propagation of the propagation's output activations through the neural network using the training pattern target in order to generate the deltas of all output and hidden neurons Phase 2: Weight update - Multiply its output delta and input activation to get the gradient of the weight - Bring the weight in the opposite direction of the gradient by subtracting a ratio of it from the weight
  36. Machine Learning: Genetic algorithms Genetic algorithms GA is a programming

    technique that mimics biological evolution as a problem-solving strategy Steps - maps the variables of the problem into a sequence of bits, a chromosome Chromosome - creates a random population of chromosomes - let evolve the population using evolution laws: - the higher the fitness, the higher the chance of breeding - crossover of chromosomes - mutation in chromosomes - if otpimal solution is found or after n steps the process is stopped
