In this tutorial, we are going to introduce how to install Caffe without root privileges. We assume that you have installed Anaconda and CUDA on your PC.
Create Virtual Environment conda create -n caffe conda activate caffe Install Dependencies Since we decide not to use system dependencies, we need to install them in the Anaconda environment. To install, you can use the following commands:
conda install boost=1.65.1 openblas mkl mkl-include gflags glog lmdb leveldb h5py hdf5 scikit-image conda install -c conda-forge ffmpeg opencv==3.
In the previous article, we’ve talked about AdaBoost which combines output of weak learners into a weighted sum that represents the final output of the boosted classifier. If you know little about AdaBoost or additive model, we highly recommend you read the article first.
Gradient boosting is a machine learning technique for regression and classification problems, which produces a prediction model in the form of an ensemble of weak prediction models, typically decision trees.
AdaBoost, short for “Adaptive Boosting”, is a machine learning meta-algorithm formulated by Yoav Freund and Robert Schapire who won the Gödel Prize in 2003 for their work. The output of the other learning algorithms (weak learners) is combined into a weighted sum that represents the final output of the boosted classifier.
AdaBoost is adaptive in the sense that subsequent weak learners are tweaked in favor of those instances misclassified by previous classifiers.
Random forests are an ensemble learning method for classification, regression and other tasks, that operate by constructing a multitude of decision trees at training time and outputting the class that is the mode of the classes (classification) or mean prediction (regression) of the individual trees. Random decision forests correct for decision trees’ habit of overfitting to their training set.
Random Forest builds many trees using a subset of the available input variables and their values, it inherently contains some underlying decision trees that omit the noise generating variable/feature(s).
Introduction In mathematics and statistics, random projection is a technique used to reduce the dimensionality of a set of points which lie in Euclidean space. Random projection methods are powerful methods known for their simplicity and less erroneous output compared with other methods. According to experimental results, random projection preserve distances well, but empirical results are sparse.
Consider a problem as follows: We have a set of n points in a high-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbf{R}^d$.
What’s a decision tree? A decision tree is a flowchart-like structure in which each internal node represents a “test” on an attribute (e.g. whether a coin flip comes up heads or tails), each branch represents the outcome of the test and each leaf node represents a class label (decision taken after computing all attributes). The paths from root to leaf represent classification rules.
