Stacked generalization, or stacking, may be a less popular machine learning ensemble given that it describes a framework more than a specific model. Perhaps the reason it has been less popular in mainstream machine learning is that it can be tricky to train a stacking model correctly, without suffering data leakage. This has meant that […]

Stacking Ensemble Machine Learning With Python
Stacking or Stacked Generalization is an ensemble machine learning algorithm. It uses a meta-learning algorithm to learn how to best combine the predictions from two or more base machine learning algorithms. The benefit of stacking is that it can harness the capabilities of a range of well-performing models on a classification or regression task and […]
Stacking Ensemble for Deep Learning Neural Networks in Python
Model averaging is an ensemble technique where multiple sub-models contribute equally to a combined prediction. Model averaging can be improved by weighting the contributions of each sub-model to the combined prediction by the expected performance of the submodel. This can be extended further by training an entirely new model to learn how to best combine […]

Building a Convolutional Neural Network in PyTorch
Neural networks are built with layers connected to each other. There are many different kind of layers. For image related applications, you can always find convolutional layers. It is a layer with very few parameters but applied over a large sized input. It is powerful because it can preserve the spatial structure of the image. […]
Manipulating Tensors in PyTorch
PyTorch is a deep-learning library. Just like some other deep learning libraries, it applies operations on numerical arrays called tensors. In the simplest terms, tensors are just multidimensional arrays. When we deal with the tensors, some operations are used very often. In PyTorch, there are some functions defined specifically for dealing with tensors. In the […]
The Attention Mechanism from Scratch
The attention mechanism was introduced to improve the performance of the encoder-decoder model for machine translation. The idea behind the attention mechanism was to permit the decoder to utilize the most relevant parts of the input sequence in a flexible manner, by a weighted combination of all the encoded input vectors, with the most relevant […]
