Probability (Part-3)

  Probabilistic Inference : The computation from observed evidence, of posterior probabilities for query  Propositions. It leads to the Joint Probability Distribution.

               If P(A|B) = P(B|A)*P(A) /P(B) 

so here P(B|A) is the evidence , P(A) is the prior probability and P(B) is the posterior Probability.

General Inference Procedure : 

Let X be the query value which is a dependent variable.

Let E be the evidence variables and e be the observed values and is specific for them.

Let Y be the unobserved Variables.

    P(X|e) = α P(X,e) = α ΣyP(X,e,Y)

where α is the normalization constant.

Bayesian  Belief Network :  It is a probabilistic Graphical Model. It follows casuality, means   there will be the reason for something.Way to reduce its parameters is by making sum of some independent variables.

Product Rule : Applicable when there are two variables present.

                               P(A1A2) = P(A2|A1) P(A1)

Chain Rule : It is the generalized form of product rule.

 P(A1A2.......An) = P(An|A1A2.......An-1)P(An-1|A1A2............An-2)P(A2|A1)P(A1)

Naive Bayes as a Bayesian Network



P(x1,.....xn,C) = P(C) πni=1 (P(xi|C))

Here parameters needed to learn is 2n + 1

  Decision Trees (Continued) Attribute Selection Measures If the dataset consists of N attributes then deciding which attribute to place at the root or at different levels of the tree as internal nodes is a complicated step. By just randomly selecting any node to be the root can’t solve the issue. If we follow a random approach, it may give us bad results with low accuracy. For solving this attribute selection problem, researchers worked and devised some solutions. They suggested using some criteria like : Entropy, Information gain, Gini index, Gain Ratio, Reduction in Variance Chi-Square These criteria will calculate values for every attribute. The values are sorted, and attributes are placed in the tree by following the order i.e, the attribute with a high value(in case of information gain) is placed at the root. While using Information Gain as a criterion, we assume attributes to be categorical, and for the Gini index, attributes are assumed to be continuous. Entropy Entropy is a me

  Support Vector Machine A Support Vector Machine (SVM) is a discriminative classifier formally defined by a separating hyperplane. In other words, given labeled training data, the algorithm outputs an optimal hyperplane which categorizes new examples.  In two dimensional space this hyperplane is a line dividing a plane in two parts where in each class lay in either side. Suppose given plot of two label classes on graph as shown in image. You might have come up with something similar to following image (image B). It fairly separates the two classes. Any point that is left of line falls into black circle class and on right falls into blue square   In real world application, finding perfect class for millions of training data set takes lot of time. This is called regularization parameter.  Two terms regularization parameter and gamma are tuning parameters in SVM classifier. Varying those we can achieve considerable non linear classification line with more accuracy in reasonable amount of

  Cross- Correlation Cross-correlation  is a  measure of similarity  of two series as a function of the displacement of one relative to the other. This is also known as a  sliding  dot product  or  sliding inner-product . It is commonly used for searching a long signal for a shorter, known feature. It has applications in  pattern recognition ,  single particle analysis ,  electron tomography ,  averaging ,  cryptanalysis , and  neurophysiology .  Steps followed in Cross- Correlation Take two matrices with same dimensions. Multiply them one by one, element by element (i.e , not the dot product, just the simple multiplication). Sum the elements together. VGG16 VGG16 is a convolutional neural network model proposed by K. Simonyan and A. Zisserman from the University of Oxford in the paper “Very Deep Convolutional Networks for Large-Scale Image Recognition”.  The model achieves 92.7% top-5 test accuracy in ImageNet,  which is a dataset of over 14 million images belonging to 1000 classes.
