Key insights 💡The process of reading and studying multiple papers (around 20 to 50) can reliably generate original ideas in the field of machine learning. 📚"People often shy away from the dirty work in AI, but it is essential for success, whether it's downloading data, tuning parameters, or struggling to replicate results." 💡The combination of doing dirty work and reading papers is the most reliable formula for producing great researchers. 🧠The process of continuously learning and iterating is crucial for becoming really good at machine learning.

Been following up with Coursera and there’s so many subjects that our educational system even since secondary school doesn’t correspond to our realistic life with particularizing skills and values. So much an awe-inspiring for an extraordinary human being like Andrew Ng whose capable to help those who unfortunate to pursue education in spite of the fact that education learning doesn’t end when you graduated, it’s sustain in a long-life learning process, which Andrew offers to those who need an extra opportunity to pursue free learning in Coursera. Thanks!

Pro tip: You don't need a PhD to be able to read research papers.

[@jaredbeckwith]

Exactly!! I’ve learned so much from research papers even if I didn’t understand everything.

[@Staticshock-rd8lv]

you do need to be math fluent though, and have an extensive math background when it comes to ai papers

[@tomkamikaze]

Yep. Only the reverse is true

[@tensai1043]

You just have to be thorough with advanced undergraduate math courses like Measure theory, Measure theory based probability and advanced linear algebra.

[@Staticshock-rd8lv]

reading ml papers wouldn't be so intimidating if they didn't throw out super math dense gibberish, tensors, linear algebra, statistics, diff eq etc.... take into account andrew ng's background an excerpt from andrew ng's Wikipedia page *"In 1997, he earned his undergraduate degree with a triple major in computer science, statistics, and economics from Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, graduating at the top of his class. Between 1996 and 1998 he also conducted research on reinforcement learning, model selection, and feature selection at the AT&T Bell Labs.[10]"* No wonder ai came so easy to him he is a genius who is also extremely math fluent.

[@ctrlaltdebug]

Yes, papers would be much easier to read if the authors cut the math gibberish and knew fluent English.

[@heatherbrm]

“Came so easy to him” You mean mastered the necessary topics for over 20 years? That’s definitely a weird way to phrase it. If lacking that mastery is holding you back from mastering ML, then do the 4 year degree for the same topics. And it’s not just math gibberish, machine learning IS math. If you want to make discoveries in ML, not everything will be in PyTorch. The idea and math behind ML has been developing since 1943. Andrew Ng didn’t wake up one day and discover ML with the relevant skills conveniently sitting in his lap, he just worked very long and hard. Don’t expect one Python crash course to match that.

Read enough papers, replicate the results - 20~50 papers later, you will start your own idea. Willing to do dirty work. It is a long term marathon. - train our own brains neural networks to learn how to do it

Some research papers will reference datasets they used to build their neural networks. You would use the same data and copy the neural network in the paper to get the same results.

Be able to copy the research paper and get the same results. For example, if a cats vs dogs image detector was 95% accurate in the paper, you should be able to get the same accuracy by using the same neural network.

[@jaredbeckwith]

If you know nothing about machine learning start by building a model to recognize handwritten digits. It is called the “MNIST dataset.” You take a dataset of human labeled handwritten digits and teach a machine to recognize digits correctly. There’s a lot of documentation on Google/KZbin about MNSIT. Afterwards, you can build something like a Cats vs Dogs detector using the same techniques.
