A survey of cross-lingual embedding models
In past blog posts, we discussed different models, objective functions, and hyperparameter choices that allow us to learn accurate word embeddings. However, these models are generally restricted to capture representations of words in the language they were trained on. The availability of resources, training data, and... Read more
The Complexities of Governing Machine Learning
Today’s businesses run on data. It’s essential for any corporation to look for insights about their customers based on the data they collect. That collected information drives everything from business strategy to customer service. In order to retrieve insights from the massive amounts of data they... Read more
The future of Machine Learning lies in its (human) past
Superficially different in goals and approach, two recent algorithmic advances, Bayesian Program Learning and Galileo, are examples of one of the most interesting and powerful new trends in data analysis. It also happens to be the oldest one. Bayesian Program Learning (BPL) is deservedly one of... Read more
Cognitive Machine Learning (2): Uncertain Thoughts
She pined in thought,  And with a green and yellow melancholy She sat like Patience on a monument,  Smiling at grief. Was not this love indeed?   In King Lear, Shakespeare stirs a sense of self-consciousness by invoking Patience, sitting up high;... Read more

Cognitive Machine Learning (1): Learning to Explain
Above is an image of the Zaamenkomst panel: one of the best remaining exemplars of rock art from the San people of Southern Africa. As soon as you see it, you are inevitably herded, like the eland in the scene, through a series of thoughts. Does it have a meaning?  Why are... Read more
