Machine learning predictive modeling performance is only as good as your data, and your data is only as good as the way you prepare it for modeling. The most common approach to data preparation is to study a dataset and review the expectations of a machine learning algorithms, then carefully choose the most appropriate data […]

Data preparation is an important part of a predictive modeling project. Correct application of data preparation will transform raw data into a representation that allows learning algorithms to get the most out of the data and make skillful predictions. The problem is choosing a transform or sequence of transforms that results in a useful representation […]
What if I have more Columns than Rows in my dataset? Machine learning datasets are often structured or tabular data comprised of rows and columns. The columns that are fed as input to a model are called predictors or “p” and the rows are samples “n“. Most machine learning algorithms assume that there are many […]
Language modeling is central to many important natural language processing tasks. Recently, neural-network-based language models have demonstrated better performance than classical methods both standalone and as part of more challenging natural language processing tasks. In this post, you will discover language modeling for natural language processing. After reading this post, you will know: Why language […]
