Pooling is a form of non-linear down-sampling(image reduction) with an aggregation function. Max pooling is the most common – It partitions the input image into a set of non-overlapping rectangles(N x N) and, for each such sub-region, outputs the maximum, thus, practically extracting the most significant features. The non-overlapping poolingContinue Reading

Artificial neural network is a structure composed of artificial neurons or nodes which are connected one to another. An artificial neuron receives one or more inputs that are separately weighted, and sums them all to produce an output. The output is passed through a non-linear function, known as an activationContinue Reading

Loss functions in ML(Machine Learning) are computational functions. These functions evaluate the price paid for inaccuracy of predictions in classification problems. Therefore, thier output should be minimized. The Loss Function used in Logistic Regression is cross entropy function: L(yˆ,y) = -(y*log(yˆ) + (1-y)*log(1-yˆ)) Where y is the ground truth outcomeContinue Reading
