Keras Metrics: Everything You Need To Know

Deep LearningModelingKerasNeural Networksposted by ODSC Community March 30, 2020

Keras metrics are functions that are used to evaluate the performance of your deep learning model. Choosing a good metric for your problem is usually a difficult task. you need to understand which metrics are already available in Keras and tf.keras and how to use them, in many situations you need...

Causal Inference Using Synthetic Control: The Ultimate Guide

Modelingcausal inferenceposted by Leihua Ye March 24, 2020

In other posts, I’ve explained what causation is and how to do causal inference using quasi-experimental designs (DID, ITS, RDD). Almost for all research methods, they have to meet two preconditions in order to generate meaningful insights: 1. the treated group looks like the control group (similarity for comparability); 2. a...

Data VisualizationModelingtableauposted by Jordan Bean March 23, 2020

Measuring Physical, Personal, and National Development over the past century I recently came across a compelling work of data visualization published by the New York Times. The author sought to prove a point that performance had peaked in men’s speed skating and more broadly in other Olympic sports too. [Related... Read more
