Deep Portfolio Optimization — An Experiment with Cryptocurrencies

From: https://towardsdatascience.com/deep-portfolio-optimization-an-experiment-with-cryptocurrencies-106bf22a634 Feeling bullish. Image source Ifyou’ve ever taken an intro finance or investment theory class, then you’ve probably come across the idea of Modern Portfolio Theory or MPT. The Nobel Prize winning idea is that we have a collection of assets which have different returns, risks and correlations with each other, and we find an optimal weighing … Continue reading Deep Portfolio Optimization — An Experiment with Cryptocurrencies

Intuitively Understanding Convolutions for Deep Learning

From: https://towardsdatascience.com/intuitively-understanding-convolutions-for-deep-learning-1f6f42faee1 The advent of powerful and versatile deep learning frameworks in recent years has made it possible to implement convolution layers into a deep learning model an extremely simple task, often achievable in a single line of code. However, understanding convolutions, especially for the first time can often feel a bit unnerving, with terms … Continue reading Intuitively Understanding Convolutions for Deep Learning

Noise: It’s not always annoying

From: https://towardsdatascience.com/noise-its-not-always-annoying-1bd5f0f240f One of the first concepts you learn when you begin to study neural networks is the meaning of overfitting and underfitting. Sometimes, it is a challenge to train a model that generalizes your data perfectly, especially when you have a small dataset because: When you train a neural network with small datasets, the network generally memorizes … Continue reading Noise: It’s not always annoying

Detecting Heart Arrhythmias with Deep Learning in Keras with Dense, CNN, and LSTM

From: https://towardsdatascience.com/detecting-heart-arrhythmias-with-deep-learning-in-keras-with-dense-cnn-and-lstm-add337d9e41f Let’s detect abnormal heart beats from a single ECG signal From: https://towardsdatascience.com/detecting-heart-arrhythmias-with-deep-learning-in-keras-with-dense-cnn-and-lstm-add337d9e41f Introduction Recently, I was reviewing Andrew Ng’s team’s work(https://stanfordmlgroup.github.io/projects/ecg/) on heart arrhythmia detector with convolutional neural networks (CNN). I found this quite fascinating especially with the emergence of wearable products (e.g. Apple Watch and portable EKG machines) that are capable of … Continue reading Detecting Heart Arrhythmias with Deep Learning in Keras with Dense, CNN, and LSTM
