A Mathless Breakdown of Decisions Trees and the Gini Impurity Index
The decision tree algorithm is one of the first learned by most aspiring data scientists because while the underlying math may be tedious, the overall logic is pretty simple to understand, at least on a surface level. At its core, a decision tree is a classifier algorithm, which means it has to make a decision… Continue reading A Mathless Breakdown of Decisions Trees and the Gini Impurity Index
Classifying Different Types of Pneumonia with Deep Learning
One of the most promising application for deep learning image classification is within the medical field. While imaging technology has allowed doctors to "see" more than ever with a plethora of tests, the diagnosis is still the responsibility of the provider. For example, something simple like an x-ray can reveal many illness about a patient,… Continue reading Classifying Different Types of Pneumonia with Deep Learning
