Causal Intervention for Weakly-Supervised Semantic Segmentation

We present a causal inference framework to improve Weakly-Supervised Semantic Segmentation (WSSS). Specifically, we aim to generate better pixel-level pseudo-masks by using only image-level labels — the most crucial step in WSSS… We attribute the cause of the ambiguous boundaries of pseudo-masks to the confounding context, e.g., the correct image-level classification of “horse” and “person” may be not only due to the recognition of each instance, but also their co-occurrence context, making the model inspection (e.g., CAM) hard to distinguish […]

iNLTK: Natural Language Toolkit for Indic Languages

We present iNLTK, an open-source NLP library consisting of pre-trained language models and out-of-the-box support for Paraphrase Generation, Textual Similarity, Sentence Embeddings, Word Embeddings, Tokenization and Text Generation in 13 Indic Languages. By using pre-trained models from iNLTK for text classification on publicly available datasets, we significantly outperform previously reported results… On these datasets, we also show that by using pre-trained models and paraphrases from iNLTK, we can achieve more than 95% of the previous best performance by using less […]

Translating Strings in Python with TextBlob

Introduction Text translation is a difficult computer problem that gets better and easier to solve every year. Big companies like Google are actively working on improving their text translation services which enables the rest of us to use them freely. Apart from their great personal use, these services can be used by developers through various APIs. This article is about TextBlob which uses one such API to perform text translation. What is TextBlob? TextBlob is a text-processing library written in […]

Auto-Sklearn for Automated Machine Learning in Python

Last Updated on September 12, 2020 Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) refers to techniques for automatically discovering well-performing models for predictive modeling tasks with very little user involvement. Auto-Sklearn is an open-source library for performing AutoML in Python. It makes use of the popular Scikit-Learn machine learning library for data transforms and machine learning algorithms and uses a Bayesian Optimization search procedure to efficiently discover a top-performing model pipeline for a given dataset. In this tutorial, you will discover how to […]

Beginners Tutorial for Regular Expressions in Python

Importance of Regular Expressions In last few years, there has been a dramatic shift in usage of general purpose programming languages for data science and machine learning. This was not always the case – a decade back this thought would have met a lot of skeptic eyes! This means that more people / organizations are using tools like Python / JavaScript for solving their data needs. This is where Regular Expressions become super useful. Regular expressions are normally the default way […]

Sentiment Analysis of Twitter Posts on Chennai Floods using Python

Introduction The best way to learn data science is to do data science. No second thought about it! One of the ways, I do this is continuously look for interesting work done by other community members. Once I understand the project, I do / improve the project on my own. Honestly, I can’t think of a better way to learn data science. As part of my search, I came across a study on sentiment analysis of Chennai Floods on Analytics Vidhya. […]

Information Retrieval using word2vec based Vector Space Model

Overview Learn about Information Retrieval (IR), Vector Space Models (VSM), and Mean Average Precision (MAP) Create a project on Information Retrieval using word2vec based Vector Space Model   Introduction “Google it!”- Isn’t it something we say every day? Whenever we come across something that we don’t know about, we “Google it.” Google Search is a great tool that can be used for even finding a needle from a haystack. This generation absolutely relies on Google for answers to all kinds […]

A Simple Introduction to Sequence to Sequence Models

Overview In this article, I would give you an overview of sequence to sequence models which became quite popular for different tasks like machine translation, video captioning, image captioning, question answering, etc. Prerequisites: The reader should already be familiar with neural networks and, in particular, recurrent neural networks (RNNs). In addition, knowledge of LSTM or GRU models is preferable. If you are not familiar with LSTM I would prefer you to read LSTM- Long Short-Term Memory.
