Reinforcement Learning with PyTorch

Posted by Jack McKew on Tue 19 March 2024 in Python • Tagged with python, visualisation, machine learning, ai • 3 min read

In our final exploration into machine learning with PyTorch, we're going to do something critical for lifeforms in our world, learn to walk!

This post took many trials and errors, a form of reinforcement learning I completed unsupervised as a human. The resulting code below was what ended up working …

Combining Machine Learning Models in Python

Posted by Jack McKew on Thu 21 September 2023 in Python • Tagged with python, visualisation, machine learning, ai • 3 min read

Now that we've built & trained logistic regression and decision tree models to classify the iris dataset in these previous posts:

We found that they were both really good in their own regard (potentially overfitting), but what if we had two models …

Logistic Regression with PyTorch

Posted by Jack McKew on Sun 06 August 2023 in Python • Tagged with python, visualisation, machine learning, ai • 17 min read

In this post we'll go through a few things typical for any project using machine learning:

  1. Data exploration & analysis
  2. Build a model
  3. Train the model
  4. Evaluate the model

While this is a very high level overview of what we're about to do. This process is almost the same in any …
