Recommending music on Spotify with deep learning – Sander Dieleman

http://benanne.github.io/2014/08/05/spotify-cnns.html

Research Scientist at Google DeepMind. Recommending music on Spotify with deep learning. August 05, 2014. This summer, I’m interning at Spotify. In New York City, where I’m working on content-based music recommendation using convolutional neural networks. In this post, I’ll explain my approach and show some preliminary results. This is going to be a long post, so here’s an overview of the different sections. If you want to skip ahead, just click the section title to go there. What will this be used for?

First Steps With Neural Nets in Keras — Swan Intelligence

http://swanintelligence.com/first-steps-with-neural-nets-in-keras.html

A practitioners view on data science. First Steps With Neural Nets in Keras. The best way to learn an algorithm is to watch it in action. This is why I created the simplest possible neural network in Keras. It's just a single neuron. We will train it on the simplest nonlinear example. The data that we are going to predict is generated by a bilinear function. F(x) = begin{cases} 0 and x leq 1 2 cdot (x-1) and x 1 end{cases} ]. This is how a general neuron looks. Object is the square. The error for our tra...

Why Blog? — Swan Intelligence

http://swanintelligence.com/why-blog.html

A practitioners view on data science. The first blog that really caught me was Coding Horror. By Jeff Atwood. He is also one of the cofounders of Stack Overflow. I was super late on the train when I discovered it in 2012. At the time I worked as a programmer at an enterprise software company and was constantly frustrated with the shitty code I was maintaining and writing myself. So Jeff hit a nerve when he wrote in the great enterprise software swindle. It's my free time, so I just do the fun part. I...

http://swanintelligence.com/watch-tiny-neural-nets-learn.html

A practitioners view on data science. Watch Tiny Neural Nets Learn. In this post I'll show you some animations of tiny neural nets learning. Finding the right neural net for a given problem needs experience and experimentation. I'll show you the steps and missteps it took me to find a good net to predict a noisy sine function. I'll assume you already know the very basics of neural nets in Keras, which you can read up on in my post First Steps With Neural Nets in Keras. Let's try another configuration of ...
