Mix it2014 - Machine Learning et Régulation NumériqueDidier Girard
Le machine learning est la science qui permet à un algorithme d’apprendre sans avoir été explicitement programmé pour cela. Elle est utilisée par les acteurs de la nouvelle économie pour le traitement de gros volumes de données, dans la traduction automatique, la reconnaissance de la parole, la classification de consommateur, la construction de réputation, ou la prévision des trafics. C’est la “régulation numérique”.
Nous parlerons des champs d’application du machine learning par les gros acteurs du numérique, de ses fondements mathématiques, des grands familles d’algorithmes et des outils disponibles pour mettre en pratique.
Découvrez les bases pour comprendre cette science et mesurer le potentiel des possibilités de son utilisation.
Machine learning, deep learning et search : à quand ces innovations dans nos ...Antidot
FORCE EST DE CONSTATER QUE DURANT CES 10 DERNIÈRES ANNÉES, IL N'Y A PAS EU D'ÉVOLUTION DANS LE DOMAINE DES MOTEURS DE RECHERCHE POUR LES ENTREPRISES. ET POURTANT LA TOILE BRUISSE DE LA RÉVOLUTION DU MACHINE LEARNING.
Ces nouvelles approches mathématiques révolutionnent le traitement de l'information. Les géants du web s'en sont saisis depuis quelques années déjà et les premiers résultats sont là. Votre recherche Web est plus personnalisée, elle prédit plus qu'elle ne trouve, elle anticipe.
Mais les travailleurs du savoir dans les entreprises classiques n'ont pas encore accès à ces innovations. Ont-ils été oubliés ?
La recherche d'information en entreprise est-elle condamnée à exploiter des technologies du 20ème siècle ?
William Lesguillier, responsable de l'offre Valorisation des Données chez Antidot, revient sur l'intérêt de ces approches de machine learning afin de comprendre à quoi elles servent. A travers divers retours d'expériences, nous illustrerons ce qu'elles apportent dans la recherche d'information.
Nous ouvrirons enfin les portes du laboratoire d'Antidot pour présenter les derniers travaux de recherche sur les algorithmes de pertinence. l
Que faire quand vous avez du mal à trier et prioriser des informations ? La solution s'appelle Machine Learning. Le principe est simple : faire faire les apprentissages à une application pour qu'elle puisse classer, categoriser ou caracteriser différentes informations, sans les connaître initialement. Cela s'applique au spam, aux traductions ou même à la qualité de code. Le Machine Learning est parfois difficile à prendre en main avec de gros projets, alors nous verrons comment en faire sur des données plus modestes, et plus accessibles.

High time to add machine learning to your information security stackMinhaz A V
Machine learning and deep learning techniques are increasingly being used for cybersecurity applications like malware detection, spam filtering, and anomaly detection. As attacks become more sophisticated, machine learning can help security teams focus on important threats by analyzing large amounts of data. While machine learning is a powerful tool, security experts still need to provide guidance on what problems to solve and how to structure machine learning pipelines and evaluate results. Individuals and organizations should embrace machine learning by participating in online courses and challenges to gain hands-on experience applying these techniques.
Azure Machine Learning Studio allows users to quickly create and deploy predictive models as analytics solutions in the cloud.

The models can then be deployed as web services and accessed through a web application.
Lessons Learned from Building Machine Learning Software at NetflixJustin Basilico
Talk from Software Engineering for Machine Learning Workshop (SW4ML) at the Neural Information Processing Systems (NIPS) 2014 conference in Montreal, Canada on 2014-12-13.
Abstract:
Building a real system that incorporates machine learning as a part can be a difficult effort, both in terms of the algorithmic and engineering challenges involved. In this talk I will focus on the engineering side and discuss some of the practical issues we’ve encountered in developing real machine learning systems at Netflix and some of the lessons we’ve learned over time. I will describe our approach for building machine learning systems and how it comes from a desire to balance many different, and sometimes conflicting, requirements such as handling large volumes of data, choosing and adapting good algorithms, keeping recommendations fresh and accurate, remaining responsive to user actions, and also being flexible to accommodate research and experimentation. I will focus on what it takes to put machine learning into a real system that works in a feedback loop with our users and how that imposes different requirements and a different focus than doing machine learning only within a lab environment. I will address the particular software engineering challenges that we’ve faced in running our algorithms at scale in the cloud. I will also mention some simple design patterns that we’ve fond to be useful across a wide variety of machine-learned systems.

Azure Machine Learning 101 slides which I used on Advanced Technology Days conference, held in Zagreb (Croatia) on November 12th and 13th.
Slides are divided into 2 parts. First part is introducing machine learning in a simple way with some basic definitions and basic examples. Second part is introducing Azure Machine Learning service including main features and workflow.
Slides are used only 30% of the presentation time so there is no much detailed information on them regarding machine learning. Rest of the time I did live demos on Azure Machine Learning portal which is probably more interesting to the audience.
Presentation can be useful as a concept for similar topics or to combine it some other resource. If you need access to the demos just send me a message so I will grant you access to Azure ML workspace where are all experiments used in this session.
The document discusses and compares 10 popular data mining tools: RapidMiner, SAS Enterprise Mining, Knime, IBM SPSS Modeler, Weka, Orange, Oracle Data Mining, Apache Machout, Rattle, and Teradata. It outlines the key features and functionality of each tool, including their programming languages, data integration capabilities, ease of use, and open source/proprietary nature. The tools were selected based on reviews from 10 referenced websites.

It begins with background on the speaker and their company Indix, which builds location and product-aware software using machine learning. The document then outlines four principles for continuous delivery of machine learning: 1) Automating training, evaluation, and prediction pipelines using tools like Go-CD; 2) Using source code and artifact repositories to improve reproducibility; 3) Deploying models as containers for microservices; and 4) Performing A/B testing using request shadowing rather than multi-armed bandits. Examples and diagrams are provided for each principle.
Scikit-Learn is a powerful machine learning library implemented in Python with numeric and scientific computing powerhouses Numpy, Scipy, and matplotlib for extremely fast analysis of small to medium sized data sets. It is open source, commercially usable and contains many modern machine learning algorithms for classification, regression, clustering, feature extraction, and optimization. For this reason Scikit-Learn is often the first tool in a Data Scientists toolkit for machine learning of incoming data sets.
The purpose of this one day course is to serve as an introduction to Machine Learning with Scikit-Learn. We will explore several clustering, classification, and regression algorithms for a variety of machine learning tasks and learn how to implement these tasks with our data using Scikit-Learn and Python. In particular, we will structure our machine learning models as though we were producing a data product, an actionable model that can be used in larger programs or algorithms; rather than as simply a research or investigation methodology.

Generating Musical Notes and Transcription using Deep LearningVarad Meru
Music has always been the most followed art form, and lot of research had gone into understanding it. In recent years, deep learning approaches for building unsupervised hierarchical representations from unlabeled data have gained significant interest. Progress in fields, such as image processing and natural language processing, has been substantial, but to my knowledge, methods on auditory data for learning representations have not been studied extensively. In this project I try to use two methods for generating music from range of musical inputs such as MIDI to complex WAV formats. I use RNN-RBMs and CDBN to explore music.
Subproblem-Tree Calibration: A Unified Approach to Max-Product Message Passin...Varad Meru
Max-product message passing algorithms are commonly used for MAP inference in MRFs. Recent work showed these algorithms can be viewed as performing block coordinate descent in a dual objective. However, existing algorithms are limited by the restricted ways they select blocks to update. The paper proposes a "Subproblem-Tree Calibration" framework that subsumes MPLP, MSD, and TRW-S as special cases and allows more flexible block selection. The algorithm represents the problem as a subproblem multi-graph and calibrates potentials on randomly selected subproblem trees via message passing, achieving dual optimality with respect to the tree's block of variables. Experimental results show the approach converges to different dual objectives than existing methods.

TrustArc Webinar: Consumer Expectations vs Corporate Realities on Data Broker...TrustArc
Most consumers believe they’re making informed decisions about their personal data—adjusting privacy settings, blocking trackers, and opting out where they can. However, our new research reveals that while awareness is high, taking meaningful action is still lacking. On the corporate side, many organizations report strong policies for managing third-party data and consumer consent yet fall short when it comes to consistency, accountability and transparency.
This session will explore the research findings from TrustArc’s Privacy Pulse Survey, examining consumer attitudes toward personal data collection and practical suggestions for corporate practices around purchasing third-party data.
Attendees will learn:
- Consumer awareness around data brokers and what consumers are doing to limit data collection
- How businesses assess third-party vendors and their consent management operations
- Where business preparedness needs improvement
- What these trends mean for the future of privacy governance and public trust
This discussion is essential for privacy, risk, and compliance professionals who want to ground their strategies in current data and prepare for what’s next in the privacy landscape.
Book industry standards are evolving rapidly. In the first part of this session, we’ll share an overview of key developments from 2024 and the early months of 2025. Then, BookNet’s resident standards expert, Tom Richardson, and CEO, Lauren Stewart, have a forward-looking conversation about what’s next.
