Can you predict fluid intelligence from T1-weighed MRI?

The ABCD Neurocognitive Prediction Challenge (ABCD-NP-Challenge 2019; https://sibis.sri.com/abcd-np-challenge) invites researchers to submit their method for predicting fluid intelligence from T1-weighed MRI (about 8.5K subjects in total, age 9-10 years). The data of 4.1k individuals are provided for training. The accuracy of each method will be assessed on its predicted fluid intelligence scores of the remaining 4.4K children, whose actual scores will be revealed after the challenge deadline. Downloading the data requires approval by NIH NDAR, which will require sign off by the institution you are affiliated with. So start the application process (https://sibis.sri.com/abcd-np-challenge/assets/docs/abcd-np-challenge-getting_data_access.pdf) early. Please also sign up to the mailing list (https://mailman.ucsd.edu/mailman/listinfo/abcd-npc-l) to receive updates about the challenge.

Important Dates:
Feb 15, 2019: Team Registration Deadline
Mar 10, 2019: Submit Results and Code
Mar 17, 2019: Submit Manuscript
Oct 2019: Meeting (in conjugation with MICCAI 2019, Shenzhen, China -http://www.miccai2019.org)

Google has just released a very interesting and important paper on federated learning (FL). FL is a distributed machine learning approach which enables model training on a large corpus of decentralized data. This is a pretty huge deal because now you're able to train deep learning models without moving the data out of mobiles phones. Instead you leave it there, train it on the phone and then just send the model weights to a global model that sits somewhere on a server. This is a pretty good solution for data privacy.

Besides the theory, they've also built a scalable production system with TensorFlow which applies federated learning on Android phones. For example, they used it to improve their next word prediction feature by training a RNN model on it. Other use cases are on-device item ranking and content suggestions for on-device keyboard. Very interesting! Definitely read the paper! #deeplearning #machinelearning

The authors of [1] used Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) model which produced state of the art performance on the user purchase prediction problem in Ecommerce without using explicit features. The model is straightforward to implement and generalizes to different datasets with comparable performance. RNN & its variants LSTM, GRU (Gated Recurrent Units) are widely available in both open source projects & commercial software. For #Matlab users, LSTM is available in the Deep Learning (DL) toolbox, see [2].

Abstract:
A neural network for predicting purchasing intent is presented in an Ecommerce setting to address the significant investment in feature engineering that is usually associated with state-of-the-art methods such as Gradient Boosted Machines (GBM). A trainable vector spaces is used to model varied, semi-structured input data comprising categoricals, quantities & unique instances. Multi-layer recurrent neural networks capture both session-local & dataset-global event dependencies and relationships for user sessions of any length.

Machine learning can definitely be fun with ml5.js, which is a high-level interface to #TensorFlow.js.

ml5.js provides immediate access in the browser to pre-trained models for detecting human poses, generating text, styling an image with another, composing music, pitch detection, and common English language word relationships.

This library intends to make machine learning approachable for a broad audience of artists, creative coders, and students by accessing ML models in the browser without any external dependencies.

A lot of excellent examples and learning references are present at their website at https://ml5js.org/ which they aptly call 'Friendly #MachineLearning for the Web'.

If you want #machinelearning algorithms to really make sense to you, grab this book.

It's an actual textbook that covers the mathematics of machine learning - not just examples and intuition.

Don't get me wrong, intuition is key to understanding, but this book will take your understanding much deeper.

I really love this one because I personally don't 100% "get it" until I can see under the hood and understand the math and algorithms in detail.

And if you want to be successful in #datascience, it will help you a LOT to understand the machine learning math.
