Dr. James McCaffrey presents a complete end-to-end demonstration of linear regression using JavaScript. Linear regression is the simplest machine learning technique to predict a single numeric value, ...

The importance of using reward-based methods to train dogs is widely known, yet some people still use aversive methods. By definition, both reward-based and aversive methods work to change behavior, ...

Michael Lieberman presents a classic Saturday challenge. By Caitlin Lovinger SATURDAY PUZZLE — Michael Lieberman’s first New York Times crossword was a bit over four years ago, and he has become a ...

Dr. James McCaffrey from Microsoft Research presents a complete end-to-end demonstration of linear regression with two-way interactions between predictor variables. Compared to standard linear ...

A windowed sinc function can implement a low-pass filter, and a two-dimensional convolutional filter can blur or sharpen images. In part 3 of this series, we introduced a low-pass filter based on the ...

A windowed sinc filter outperforms a moving-average filter in the frequency domain. Figure 1. The ideal filter X(f) in the frequency domain has a gain of 1 and a cutoff frequency fC. This result is in ...

To the extent that you’re familiar with magnetostriction, you probably know that it’s what makes big transformers hum, or that it’s what tips you off if you happen to walk out of a store without ...
