One neural network, many uses
By Paras Chopra – 15 min read
It’s common knowledge that neural networks are really good at one narrow task, but they fail at handling multiple tasks. This is unlike the human brain which is able to use the same concepts at amazingly diverse tasks.

Simplifying the ROC and AUC metrics.
By Parul Pandey – 8 min read
ROC and AUC curves are important evaluation metrics for calculating the performance of any classification model. These definitions and jargons are pretty common in the Machine learning community and are encountered by each one of us when we start to learn about classification models.
Preserving Memory in Stationary Time Series
By Simon Kuttruf – 8 min read
Many predictive models require a certain consistency of time series called stationarity. The usual transformation, namely integer order differencing (in Finance e.g. modelling returns instead of absolute prices), eliminates memory in the data and hence affects the predictive power of the modelling.
