Machine Learning

Last Updated or created 2022-09-07

Today i started with Coursera’s Machine Learning course.

My friend aloha is doing interesting stuff with ML, but recently i’ve been interested in a work related ML project.

Besides this course i’m following a spotify Podcast called “Machine Learning Guide”, i listen to this on my way to work and back.

I’ve been playing with a lot of code after that. Luckily there are many ebooks about this subject.

  • One of the first was a python program wich used the length of a person and shoesize to determine if it was a man or a woman
  • Another fun one was a program with could determine if a wine was red or white only based by a description
  • There are several graphic based programs i’ve tried. Deepfake, 8mm film enhancers, image classifiers, openface
  • For sound there was voice cloner to test. And audio to text (which i used to transcribe old cassette tapes and VHS tapes.

UPDATE: In 2022 i used what i have learned to enrich my photo metadata.
