DESCRIPTION:At paytm we value user experience and we want to pre-emptively
  show a user the types of products they would want to buy. In this talk\, 
 we will walk our audience through how we personalize every pixel on our ap
 p. How do we use deep learning on tens of terabytes of data everyday to so
 rt long tail merchandise and how we use an ensemble of several models to g
 enerate every recommendation. We will share our learnings from trying seve
 ral iterations of models and we will show why standard recommendation tech
 niques are not widely applicable and why we had to come up with our own fr
 amework for solving these problems.\n\n### Speaker bio\n\nCharu is a seaso

DESCRIPTION:### Introduction [2-3 mins]\n\nA short introduction to the top
 ics that are to be covered. Additional context about the machine learning 
 problems in the domain of ecommerce data will be presented. This section s
 ets the stage for discussing the machine learning “pipeline” to be bui
 lt for solving the various problems.\n\n---\n\n### Let there be data [10 m
 ins]\n\nHaving high-fidelity datasets is crucial when starting on any mach
 ine learning problem. Balanced classes\, representative coverage of ground
  truth\, and adversarial examples\, all need to be considered before jumpi
 ng in with the modelling.\n\n**Garbage in\, garbage out**\n\n_Do I have a 
 reliable source of data? Where do I obtain my dataset?_\n\n**Transforming 
 data to input**\n\n_What pre-processing steps are required? How do I norma
 lize my data before using with my algorithms?_\n\n---\n\n### Building mode
 ls [10 mins]\n\nOnce the datasets have been prepared\, the actual “fun
 ” can begin - experimentation is the name of the game. This section will
  be present an overview of the landscape together with processes that help
  weigh available options.\n\n**Now\, let's begin?**\n\n_Which approach do 
 I start with? Are data exploration and visualizations techniques important
 \, or can I just treat my whole system as a blackbox?_\n\n**Building model
 s**\n\n_Should I formulate this as classification\, regression or somethin
 g else? Do random forests still work\, or should I try SVMs or deep neural
  networks?_\n\n---\n\n### Deploying to production [10 mins]\n\nThe 99.8% a
 ccurate model is not of much use\, unless it can be integrated into system
 s meant to solve the actual problem. By constantly keeping these integrati
 on goals within sight\, the aim is to convey the point that _early and goo
 d enough_ is often better than _late and perfect_. \n\n**No system is an i
 sland**\n\n_Do I need to make batched or real-time predictions? Embedded m
 odels or interfaces? RPC or REST?_\n\n**Monitoring performance**\n\n_How d
 o I keep track of my predictions? Do I log my results to a database? What 
 about online learning?_\n\n---\n\n### Conclusion [2-3 mins]\n\nWhile pushi
 ng the state-of-the-art in machine learning might sound interesting\, it i
 s still important to maintain focus on its applicability within desired do
 mains. Together with an overview of the points covered\, a few concluding 
 remarks will be presented.\n\n---\n\n![flow](http://i.imgur.com/p3on6BE.pn

 ics3](https://www.semantics3.com) - building data-powered software for eco
 mmerce-focused companies. Over the years\, I have had the chance to dabble

SUMMARY:Do you know what's on TV?

DESCRIPTION:**Do you know what's on TV?**\n\n\n**What is TV and where is i
 t headed?**\n\nA quick preview.\n\nTV is about the content you see on the 
 screen. It is in two forms: Linear TV (the TV you get from Satellite or Ca
 ble) and Non-Linear TV (the TV you get On Demand\, largely from the Intern
 et). \n\nLinear TV is still going strong if you consider its large numbers
  - although in some parts of the world they say Non-Linear TV is eating in
 to TV.\n\nThere are some analogies you can draw between them. \n\nLinear T
 V is like Mumbai Local Train system. It runs on its own. Large masses of p
 eople get in and get out.\n\nNon-Linear TV is like an Uber or Ola. You hai
 l for a Taxi. There's one just for you. You get in and get out at your des
 tination\, at your time and at your place.\n\nNow\, will Uber and Ola repl
 ace the Mumbai Local Train System? Never. It simply wont scale for those n
 umbers. But both will co-exist.\n\nYou should expect TV to co-exist\, and 
 even better become Hybrid.\n\nNon-Linear TV has merely taken the place of 
 DVD Players. Those DVDs are gone. They are all in the Cloud now\, and comi
 ng in wires over the Internet.\n\n\n**The Linear TV world was designed for
  a world devoid of the Internet**\n\nYou have entire stacks of technology 
 that did not assume any Internet. Broadcasters acquired content licenses\,
  actual tapes\, and then transmitted "streaming" content to satellite\, th
 at was then collected using dish farms\, and transmitted over wires to hom
 es - to be then decrypted and shown on TV.\n\nAs a consumer\, you'd always
  consume content through a Set-top Box\, that had no return passage\, and 
 was not a connected device. There was no reason to.\n\nWith Hybrid TV comi
 ng in\, you'll soon see Set-top Boxes or TVs themselves allow you to consu
 mer both Linear and Non-Linear TV together. These boxes are going to be "c
 onnected" to the Internet\, and can send back data about what is being wat
 ched.\n\nImagine\, something you always had over the Internet. The ability
  to find out which unique user just visited a page - has never been availa
 ble to the largest medium of information delivery. And that is all about t
 o change.\n\nYou'll have millions of boxes ready to transmit data back abo
 ut what is being watched. But is the TV industry ready to do things with t
 hat data?\n\n\n**Connected Linear TV opens many doors**\n\nImagine a syste
 m that knew:\n\n- The channel you just saw.\n- The ads you did not switch 
 away from.\n- The actors you did not miss when you watched a movie on TV.\
 n- The songs you waited for\, even if you had to go past an ad break.\n- T
 he news topics you track.\n\nNot at Internet scale\, but at TV scale.\n\nH
 ere are some business usecases:\n\nTV Synchronized Advertising: Ads (or fo
 llow on ads) that show up on your mobile\, as soon as you've seen the same
  ad on TV.\n\nCelebrity Apparel: Ways to shop for apparel worn by celebrit
 ies that just came on TV.\n\nAdvertising Measurement: The exact people (or
  their stereotypes) that watched an ad on TV.\n\nTo do all this\, we first
  need to know "What exactly is on TV?"\n\n**The state of metadata on Linea
 r TV**\n\nThe EPG (Electronic Program Guide) is as good you get right now.
  The EPG describes what Show is on which channel. You'll probably get more
  metadata about the Show itself\, the actors\, the duration\, and so on. B
 ut there's no available data on:\n\n- What ads just played?\n- Which House
  Promotion just played?\n- Are we in an Ad Break?\n- Which actor is on scr
 een?\n- What was just said on TV?\n\nYou cannot wait for Broadcasters to g
 ive you this data. A lot of technology needs to change for that.\n\nThe wo
 rld is about to need them all. So\, let's start reverse engineering this d
 ata.\n\n\n**So\, what exactly is Linear TV made up of?**\n\nLinear TV look
 s like this (if you allow me to use a regular expression):\n\n(ContentSegm
 ent . BreakMarker? . (Ad|HousePromo)+ . BreakMarker? ContentSegment)+\n\nT
 he EPG you get largely tags the Content Segment\, but wont tell when the A
 d breaks.\n\nBut no body is going to tell you about BreakMarker\, Ad\, Hou
 sePromo etc. There is no database to look up. No standards or compliance. 
 No watermarks (at least those that are accessible to third parties).\n\n\n
 **Goal: Can we figure out ContentSegment . BreakMarker. Ad . HousePromo .*
 *\n\nLook at TV as continuous streaming video: 60 fps pictures + aligned a
 udio + EPG metadata.\n\nAre there patterns that we can employ to unearth t
 hese segments\, and tag them appropriately?\n\nHere are some heuristics:\n
 \nBreak Markers: Signature sequences of video or audio that are specific t
 o a channel\, and/or a show. If they signatures that belong to a show\, th
 ey always come along with the show\, and very seldom else where. They are 
 also sentinels that separate the content from the ads.\n\nAds: Ads are sho
 rt. Ads are heavy on audio. Ads repeat a lot. Ads occur across channels. A
 ds always come together.\n\nHouse Promos: House Promos come with Ads. [Thi
 s kind of makes them hard to distinguish]. House promos feature actors tha
 t are regular in the Show. This is unlike Ads.\n\nSo\, let's start mining 
 for clips - that repeat a lot in TV. A clip is a maximal sequence of audio
 /video that occurs intact\, and repeats many times on TV.\n\nThis is maxim
 al sequence mining problem. NP(Hard). We need to make it more efficient. L
 et's do it in audio first. Audio can be converted to numbers - using finge
 rprinting algorithms (references).\n\nA temporal reverse index is built\, 
 and used to mine for repeating sequences of audio. \n\nNot all audio repet
 itions are true clips. Eg: Fake laughter. Background music.\nDifferent aud
 io clip candidates could be slight alterations of each other. Eg: Variants
  of ads.\n\nContinue the processing in video domain\, by creating a more c
 onstrained set of candidates around audio candidates.\n\nAfter candidate c
 lips are obtained\, "score" them - to label them as break markers\, ads or
  house promos.\n\n\n**Demo of the whole system in action:**\n\nAdBreaks.in
  tags ads in real time on Linear TV. I'll show the audience how audio cand
 idates are generated\, how we generate video candidates from them\, and fu
 rther get clips to the exact frame. Will further show how break markers an
 d house promos are classified.\n\nAlongside\, I'll also demo use cases whe
 re AdBreaks.in has been used.\n\n1) TV Ad Research.\n2) TV Ad Playout Moni
 toring. TV Synchronized Advertising.\n3) Dynamic Ad Replacement in OTT str
 eams. [A collaboration with Amagi]\n\n**The road ahead:**\n\n- Language-in
 dependent Hot keyword detection in news.\n- Celebrity frames\, and detecti
 on of clothing.\n- Linear TV segmentation for Catch Up TV.\n\n### Speaker

DESCRIPTION:This talk aims at reflecting back at cartography practices ove
 r the centuries\, and possibilities of visualizing data on maps with the t
 oday’s tools. Inspired by the survey format of the seminal paper titled 
 _“A tour through the visualization zoo”_ by Heer et al\, I plan to cov
 er a variety of types of geo-visualizations\, accompanying each category w
 ith an explanation on what data suits it best\, and tips on designing it.\
 n\nSpecifically\, I plan to cover:\n\n- Showing data _in a map_ (Manipulat
 ing map layers)\n- Showing data _on a map_ (Overlaying data as a visualiza
 tion layer on a map)\n- Showing data as a _non-geographic map_ (Visualizat
 ions that may not be geographically accurate\, like cartograms and isoplet
 hs)\n- Showing geographic data _without a map_ (Like using parallel coordi
 nates to show flow across geographic locations)\n\nThe talk will wrap-up w
 ith a short discussion on the tools that one can use today to build these.

DESCRIPTION:Apache Atlas Project Introduction\nData Governance challenge a
 nd use case scenarios\nAtlas architechture\nArchitechture choices : Pros a
 nd cons\nCross component lineage capability of Atlas\nApache Ranger integr
 ation to enforce tag based policies\nAtlas TypeSystem\nModel a popular Had
 oop component for Atlas\nDemo based on the above model\nFuture/Roadmap\nIn
 vitation to contribute\n\nMore details on Order of presentation\n\nWhy Apa
 che Atlas(What are the use cases)\nEnterprises have 100s of ETL pipelines 
 wherein developers take the source data\, apply transformations and persis
 t the result into the warehouse. Now\, if an upstream pipeline breaks/fail
 s\, how does the owner of current dataset narrow down on the cause and cul
 prit ETL pipeline. Further\, if the current pipeline breaks\, the owner ha
 s no mechanism to alert the owners of downstream processes. A tool which c
 ould keep track of the provenance/lineage/impact of a dataset would solve 
 this issue. Atlas has the capability to track lineage of the datasets.\n\n
 ETL redundancy is another striking issue in current enterprise Hadoop depl
 oyments. Many developers process data and persist it to the warehouse. The
 y don't have any mechanism to detect if the result they need is already co
 mputed and resides in a dataset. Using the lineage diagram and classificat
 ion feature of Atlas\, developers can look into the details of derived dat
 asets and skip the expensive processing if the information is already avai
 lable in one of the derived datasets.\n\nFurther\, enterprises need to adh
 ere to compliance policies which span multiple datasets across components 
 like Hive\, HBase\, HDFS etc. How can the business make sure that a partic
 ular policy is enforced across datasets in these components. Datasets can 
 be tagged in Atlas and Ranger can use its Tag based policy feature to enfo
 rce constraints\n\nCluster admin may need to periodically clean up the unu
 sed/dormant datasets from the warehouse. How can the admin narrow down on 
 the candidate datasets for archival. Atlas is useful in determining the re
 levance of a dataset on the basis of the number of tags and downstream dat
 asets derived from it.\n\n\nWhat is Apache Atlas\nApache Atlas is the gove
 rnance and metadata framework for Hadoop. Atlas has a scalable and extensi
 ble architecture which can plug into many Hadoop components to manage thei
 r metadata in a central repository. By virtue of its extensible TypeSystem
 \, any arbitrary component(not necessarily a Hadoop component) can be mode
 lled to capture the metadata of its datasets and events. The metadata even
 ts can then be classified using tags which can further be used to enforce 
 security policies by Ranger. When a dataset derives from another dataset\,
  the event can be registered and Atlas will capture the lineage relationsh
 ip.\n\nHow\nAtlas provides inbuilt support for some Hadoop components like
  Hive\, Storm and Sqoop. This means that whenever new datasets and events 
 are created in these components\, Atlas captures the metadata of those eve
 nts. For new components like Spark\, first the model of the metadata to be
  captured needs to be defined and registered with Atlas. Once the model is
  in place\, datasets and events occuring in that component can be register
 ed with Atlas using its rich REST API.\n\nThe demo for the presentation wi
 ll cover these parts. First\, Spark datasets will be modeled and registere
 d with Atlas. Then\, a realistic use case will be considered where we will
  capture a lineage relationship across components like HDFS and Kafka. We 
 will then go to Atlas UI and inspect lineage and other features like tag b
 ased classification\, search and advanced search\n\n### Speaker bio\n\nVim

DESCRIPTION:The talk will be framed as questions you should ask yourself w
 hen you find that you’ve hit a roadblock.\n\n### Part 1 [10-15 mins]\nA 
 checklist of no-brainers and best practices that you should make sure you'
 ve followed. This will include questions like:\n\n* Have you tried overfit
 ting your model on a smaller dataset?\n\n* Have you tried training on stan
 dard corpora (Imagenet etc)?\n\n* Is your dataset balanced\, and if not\, 
 how should you get past this?\n\n* Have you checked where your gradients a
 nd activation functions are at (through tools like Tensorboard)?\n\n* Have
  you gotten your hands muddy with the data itself?\n\n[I’ve written abou
 t this previously here](https://engineering.semantics3.com/2016/10/09/debu
 gging-neural-networks-a-checklist/).\n\n### Part 2 [20-25 mins]\nDeeper qu
 estions (no pun intended) to help surface core problems with your dataset\
 , your mode of learning or your model. For each question\, I’ll present 
 a scenario where the asking the question helps get past the problem at han
 d:\n\n* Is your network learning the quirks in your training dataset\, or 
 is it learning to solve the problem at hand? (Helps unearth flaws in the d
 ataset).\n\n* Is your network incapable or just lazy? If it’s the latter
 \, how do you force it to learn? (Helps force your network past a local ma
 xima\, especially when training with multiple inputs).\n\n* Does your netw
 ork have siblings that can give it a leg-up (through pre-trained weights)?
  (Helps with scenarios where the problem is complicated to grasp\, or the 
 dataset is poor/sparse).\n\n* Have you tried giving your network training 
 wheels (through feature engineering)? (Helps uncover the benefits of hand-
 crafting features).\n\n* Never mind a neural network\; can a human with no
  prior knowledge\, educated on nothing but a diet of your training dataset
 \, solve the problem? (Helps to understand whether your problem can even b
 e solved through a representative dataset).\n\n* Is your network looking a
 t your data through the right lens? (Helps to understand shortcomings in y
 our pre-processing steps).\n\n[I've written about this previously here](ht
 tps://blog.semantics3.com/questions-intuition-for-tackling-deep-learning-p
 roblems-2b3a22b32309)\n\n### Speaker bio\n\nGovind is a co-founder of [Sem
 antics3](www.semantics3.com). Semantics3 provides Data APIs and AI APIs fo
 r e-commerce focused companies to make better decisions and grow their bus
 inesses. We’re a 5-year old Y Combinator backed startup based in Bengalu
