  2. Poster sessions featuring novel ideas and projects in the poster session track
  3. Birds of Feather (BOF) sessions for practitioners who want to use the Anthill Inside forum to discuss:
  • Myths and realities of labelling datasets for Deep Learning.
  • Practical experience with using Knowledge Graphs for different use cases.
  • Interpretability and its application in different contexts; challenges with GDPR and intepreting datasets.
  • Pros and cons of using custom and open source tooling for AI/DL/ML.

#Who should attend Anthill Inside:

Anthill Inside is a platform for:

  1. Data scientists
  2. AI, DL and ML engineers
  3. Cloud providers
  4. Companies which make tooling for AI, ML and Deep Learning
  5. Companies working with NLP and Computer Vision who want to share their work and learnings with the community

Introduction to Bayesian Networks(3 hour workshop)

Submitted Apr 28, 2019

Most machine learning models assume independent and identically distributed (i.i.d)
data. Graphical models can capture almost arbitrarily rich dependency structures
between variables. They encode conditional independence structure with graphs.
Bayesian network, a type of graphical model describes a probability distribution
among all variables by putting edges between the variable nodes, wherein edges
represent the conditional probability factor in the factorized probability distribution.
Thus Bayesian Networks provide a compact representation for dealing with
uncertainty using an underlying graphical structure and the probability theory. These
models have a variety of applications such as medical diagnosis, bio monitoring,
image processing, turbo codes, information retrieval, document classification, gene
regulatory networks, etc. amongst many others. These models are interpretable as
they are able to capture the causal relationships between different features .They
can work efficiently with small data and also deal with missing data which gives it
more power than conventional machine learning and deep learning models.
In this session, we will discuss concepts of conditional independence, d- separation,
Hamersley Clifford theorem, Bayes theorem, Expectation Maximization and Variable
Elimination. There will be a code walk through of simple case study.

  • Target audience:
  • Data scientist, Data Analysts, Data Science enthusiast
  • Who should NOT attend this workshop.
  • Anyone who doesn’t like probability shouldn’t attend this workshop
  • Why attend this workshop? What will participants learn from attending this workshop? How will they benefit?
  • Bayesian Networks can handle use cases with smaller data and missing data effectively. Its is the only inference based technique currently available.
