Today, I learned a lesson about how crime does in fact pay and how ill-equipped we are to stop it.

Read more...I recently welcomed a group of new team members who were not used to the email centric culture. This can be overwhelming: We have dozens of email lists and automated systems sending status updates and alerts that everyone receives email from. Many of us who have lived this way for a long time have coping mechanisms. These are mine.

Read more...Home automation has been an interest of mine for a while. Here, I collect notes on what worked for me. Both as a reminder for myself and in the hopes that it is useful to others dabbling in the space. This is not a tutorial for any of the devices mentioned. There are plenty of those available on the internet.

It is given to our work on matrix factorization you can find here on my website. Here is the deck Alex used at ECML/PKDD 2018 today in his talk to commemorate the work, give it perspective with the field since and produce some ideas of where the field might go.

Are you at the same time frustrated that so relatively few organizations in the world can benefit from ML? Do you read NIPS, COLT, ICML and KDD papers for pleasure? If you answered yes to these I want to talk to you. Apply within.
The team dedicated to Apache REEF at Microsoft is hiring. Apply within :-)

Sergiy Matusevych presented Apache REEF at Apache Big Data 2016 in Vancouver, BC. Find the slides below.
Read more...Over in Apache REEF, we needed to make our solution compile in both Visual Studio 2013 and 2015. The main impediment to that was the C++ code in the project, which needs to be compiled with the “right” compiler, depending on the version of Visual Studio used. Below, I describe how we created a project file that can be compiled uniformly across Visual Studio versions.

Read more...So, you read Alex’ post on applying the hashing trick to matrix factorization or our paper on the subject and thought you’d just go ahead and implement it. And instead of computing two hashes, one for the Rademacher function ( [latex]\sigma[/latex] in the paper) and one for the index in the storage array, you compute just one and use the sign of the hash as [latex]\sigma[/latex] and the absolute value for the index. Which looks something like this in Java:

We are therefore happily accepting software submissions. The deadline for the submissions is April 10th, 2010. If accepted, you can present your software to the workshop audience, which is a great opportunity to make your piece of software more known to the machine learning community.
Like last time, we will use mloss.org for managing the submissions. You basically just have to register your project with mloss.org and add the tag
icml2010
to it. For more information, have a look at the workshop page.

Read more...A few people contacted me with the question how the NDCG optimization in our NIPS07 paper on collaborative ranking is done in detail. Unfortunately, we did not manage to squeeze these details into the paper itself. Luckily, there is the internet and I just uploaded my notes on this to the CofiRank site. Please note that these notes are not peer reviewed. If you find a bug/typo/whatever in the derivations, I would be more than happy to hear from you!
