Towards meta-modeling of workload performance in public clouds

Dr. Rizz Predicting the workload behavior sets the expectations for execution time and cost [1]. In particular, this enables more reliable guarantees towards service level agreements (SLA) prior to any workload execution [2]. Knowing the workload behavior a priori is also very useful for many administrative tasks such as capacity planning, admission ... read more


Machine Learning versus Human-level Performance

Why do we compare machine learning algorithm with human-level performance? There are two reasons for that: 1) machine learning algorithms have become much more efficient due availability of data and computational power, 2) machine learning workflows have led to machine learning algorithms which are competitive with human-level performance. In most machine learning ... read more



Machine Learning Strategy

In modern big era, machine learning strategy plays significant role in ultimate fate of a machine learning project. Let's say we have trained a classifier with 90% accuracy on test examples. But that accuracy is not be good enough for the application. To improve classifier’s accuracy, we can try a ra... read more


Data Science 101: simplest possible hands-on example?

Dr. Rizz I have been thinking about writing up a simplest possible data science example that people can play with, and it gives a taste of predicting something useful. In today’s hot real estate market, I choose the example of freely and openly available Boston Housing dataset available at UC... read more
