appliedAI — TransferLab

We identify, test and disseminate established and emerging techniques in machine learning in order to provide practitioners with the best tools for their applications

What we do

Trainings

Our hands-on, one to three day workshops cover fundamental and advanced topics in machine learning. We illustrate concepts with abundant real-world examples backed by rigorous theory.

Playbooks

Guided walkthroughs and industry-grade implementations of common tasks in machine learning

Reviews

In-depth analyses of the recently possible, as well as established techniques essential to the daily application of machine learning

Showcases

Visually rich, accessible explanations of novel concepts in machine learning, using open data

Software

Code libraries developed during our research and supporting our work, open sourced

This paper proposes a method for measuring the difficulty of a machine learning task by training neural networks using a randomly oriented subspace of the parameter space instead of the full parameter space.

Spectral Likelihood expansion represents the Likelihood using Polynomial Chaos Expansion to speed up access to the posterior. It thus avoids costly MCMC simulations.

In posterior estimation, it is generally worse to exclude plausible parameters than wrongly including implausible ones. However, extensive tests yield empirical evidence that popular algorithms provide overconfident estimations.

A much-needed benchmark for methods of simulation-based inference.

An overview and schematic comparison of recent developments in simulation-based inference and their enabling factors. Advancements in ML, Active Learning and Augmentation are named as the three driving forces in the field.
