How does one make it obvious that the structure of a neural network should be what it is?
I am a beginner: I've only read a book about neural network and barely implemented one in C.
In short:
A neural network is built out of nodes,
Each node holds an output: activation.(sum.(x * w)),
We then compute the total error out of the network…

Approach for data transformation needed
I am looking for an algorithm to transform an input data to a goal data using a series of operations. The shorter the series the better.
The following is known:
the input data
the goal data
input and goal data does not stand in any…

How to find the subject in a text?
I often develop bots and I need to understand what some people are saying.
Examples:
- I want an apple
- I want an a p p l e
How do I find the object (apple)? I honestly don't know where to start looking. Is there an API that I can send the text to…

Predict time series from initial non-time dependant parameters
I'm trying to create an algorithm (neural network) that is able to predict a time series from a set of different parameters that are not given through time. Let's say I have a plane flying under the following…

AI approach for layout mapping
I am researching different AI approaches and was curious what approach would be useful in my scenario.
Assume you are tiling a room. The tiles, and the room itself, can be any shape. In this room you could encounter N number of obstacles, such as a…

Confusion about bias in McCulloch-Pitts neurons
I just have a quick question, maybe I am too nit picky here.
We recently had an introductory lecture to AI in university and the professor talked about McCulloch-Pitts neurons, e.g. activation as soon as the sum of inputs is reaching a certain…

Can YOLOv3 architecture be clearly separated into feature extractor and classifier parts?
I am new to machine learning and am confused about whether its architecture has clearly defined boundaries which demarcate the feature extraction and classification part. Or is it that it classifies the features extracted at different scales…

For a task that searches for an image artifact within a picture, can existing tools can be used or do I need to design the process myself?
I am familiar only with basic AI/NN concepts but never worked with any libraries/tools as tensor flow. Currently, I have a task for which AI might be ideal: detection of a certain image artifact in a picture (lets say I want to detect a black…

Which AI algorithm to use for identifying API for a specific use from a list of APIs?
We have a legacy code solution in C#. We have to change the code so that it fetches internal data via APIs and not via DB calls.
E.g. if the current code GETS Payment object from DB, we have to replace the logic so that the code calls the GET…

Appropriate ML algorithm to solve a cutting pattern problem
I have a rectangular area, where I need to place some 2 dimensional geometrical shapes - like a square or circle or a little more complicated shapes. And after the arrangement these shapes should be cut out.

Why don't we use this intialization with SGD rather than random?
Suppose I have a loss function as a polynomial with its variables being the weights of a network I wish to tune. Now, we want to find the minima of the loss function - so basically argmin.
In ML, we simple use SGD with any initialization. But…
