Tutorial-type notebooks covering regression, classification, clustering, dimensionality reduction, and some basic neural network algorithms

Regression

• Simple linear regression with t-statistic generation

• Multiple ways to perform linear regression in Python and their speed comparison (check the article I wrote on freeCodeCamp)

• Multi-variate regression with regularization

• Polynomial regression using scikit-learn pipeline feature (check the article I wrote on Towards Data Science)

• Decision trees and Random Forest regression (showing how the Random Forest works as a robust/regularized meta-estimator rejecting overfitting)

• Detailed visual analytics and goodness-of-fit diagnostic tests for a linear regression problem

• Robust linear regression using HuberRegressor from Scikit-learn

Classification

• Logistic regression/classification (Here is the Notebook)

• k-nearest neighbor classification (Here is the Notebook)

• Decision trees and Random Forest Classification (Here is the Notebook)

• Support vector machine classification (Here is the Notebook) (check the article I wrote in Towards Data Science on SVM and sorting algorithm)

• Naive Bayes classification (Here is the Notebook)

Clustering

• K-means clustering (Here is the Notebook)

• Affinity propagation (showing its time complexity and the effect of damping factor) (Here is the Notebook)

• Mean-shift technique (showing its time complexity and the effect of noise on cluster discovery) (Here is the Notebook)

• DBSCAN (showing how it can generically detect areas of high density irrespective of cluster shapes, which the k-means fails to do) (Here is the Notebook)

• Hierarchical clustering with Dendograms showing how to choose optimal number of clusters (Here is the Notebook)

Dimensionality reduction

• Principal component analysis

Deep Learning/Neural Network

• Demo notebook to illustrate the superiority of deep neural network for complex nonlinear function approximation task
• Step-by-step building of 1-hidden-layer and 2-hidden-layer dense network using basic TensorFlow methods

Random data generation using symbolic expressions

• How to use Sympy package to generate random datasets using symbolic mathematical expressions.

• Here is my article on Medium on this topic: Random regression and classification problem generation with symbolic expression

Synthetic data generation techniques

• Notebooks here

Simple deployment examples (serving ML models on web API)

• Serving a linear regression model through a simple HTTP server interface. User needs to request predictions by executing a Python script. Uses Flask and Gunicorn.

• Serving a recurrent neural network (RNN) through a HTTP webpage, complete with a web form, where users can input parameters and click a button to generate text based on the pre-trained RNN model. Uses Flask, Jinja, Keras/TensorFlow, WTForms.

Object-oriented programming with machine learning

Implementing some of the core OOP principles in a machine learning context by building your own Scikit-learn-like estimator, and making it better.

See my articles on Medium on this topic.
