Other, , Prof. Jeremy Howard

Updated On 02 Feb, 19

Overview

Learn the most important machine learning models, including how to create them yourself from scratch, as well as key skills in data preparation, model validation, and building data products.

Includes

Lecture 9: Machine Learning 1: Lesson 9

4.1 ( 11 )


Lecture Details

Today we continue building our logistic regression from scratch, and we add the most important feature to it: regularization. Well learn about L1 vs L2 regularization, and how they can be implemented.

We also talk more about how learning rates work, and how to pick one for your problem.

In the second half of the lesson, we start our discussion of natural language processing (NLP). Well build a "bag of words" representation of the popular IMDb text dataset, using sparse matrices to ensure good performance and reasonable memory use.

Well build a number of models from this, including naive bayes and logistic regression, and will improve these models by adding ngram features.
