Introduction Suppose for instance that you are cooking a meal that will have a certain taste that you desire if only the sequence of processes is followed as expected. Likewise, in mathematics and programming, getting factorial definition of a number requires a unique sequence of multiplication of a series of decrement positive integers. Factorials’ operation […] The post Factorial Program in Python appeared first on Analytics Vidhya.
Tips for Tuning Hyperparameters in Machine Learning Models
Machine Learning Mastery
AUGUST 6, 2024
If you’re familiar with machine learning, you know that the training process allows the model to learn the optimal values for the parameters—or model coefficients—that characterize it. But machine learning models also have a set of hyperparameters whose values you should specify when training the model. So how do you find the optimal values for […] The post Tips for Tuning Hyperparameters in Machine Learning Models appeared first on MachineLearningMastery.com.

Generating Gender Alternatives in Machine Translation
Machine Learning Research at Apple
AUGUST 6, 2024
This paper was accepted at the 5th Workshop on Gender Bias in Natural Language Processing 2024. Machine translation (MT) systems often translate terms with ambiguous gender (e.g., English term “the nurse”) into the gendered form that is most prevalent in the systems’ training data (e.g., “enfermera”, the Spanish term for a female nurse). This often reflects and perpetuates harmful stereotypes present in society.
