Machine Learning with No Code

Is it possible to use machine learning without needing to code? The answer is yes! Uber's AI lab recently open sourced python library called Ludwig that they've been using internally for 2 years. The tagline is that it allows anyone to use deep learning without coding. It will require some configuration and unix commands to setup, but I'll show you how in this video. I'll also talk about other code-free tools like Azure ML Studio, DataRobot, and DeepCognition. Enjoy!

Another way to try transfer learning for image classification without writing any code is an Android app called Pocket AutoML. It trains a model right on your phone without sending your photos to some "cloud" so it can even work offline. Disclosure: I made this app.

[@RAOUFTV16]

Life is a binary machine learning classification problem ( happy | unhappy ) ! We start from a random vector w that we did not choose W = [ Country , Parents , Culture , Financial situation ... ] The loss function is the MSE the dataset is life experiences Goal : best (happy | unhappy ) predictor for further situations and experiences Optimization : Mini-Batch Gradient Descent

[@innocentiuslacrim2290]

This is great that we are heading towards this direction. There will always be a place for fine tuned models that reach for the best possible accuracy and efficiency, but making modelling and deploying easier to use we will have a lot more applications actually made and deployed. There are plenty of businesses that either lack their dedicated machine learning specialists or have them, but they are so busy that they cannot address each possible problem. There are also a lot of non-profits, researchers and private individuals that could use these techniques but they lack the deep skills that have been required so far to use them.

[@digital_down]

One day it will be as simple as, “hey Siri, make my own personal image compositing software in a node based architecture”. “Ok, here’s the software you requested”. Keep telling Siri what you want to add and subtract from the software until your needs are met.

[@cedricvillani8502]

Uh well learn Wolfram language, the top 50 all use a Wolfram product, have been for years. Siri is from Wolfram Alpha (a specialized build for Apple ) AI models that get released are either out of date or from edu, but even then a paper won't be published publicly if it is ground breaking and gets that department a nice “Grant” I'm pretty sure it's still high 80% that's under heavy NDA and proprietary. The rest you see, or we see. Being a graduate in Electronics Engineering (not electrical lol) I have been apart of iEEE since 2001, there are projects there that are incredible and with the correct membership and degree you can even join in on a project. I think they have a open to the public membership that's fairly reasonable price-wise, and you can join various general groups that drill down pretty deep but that's when it gets expensive, but if your in EE CIS IT..etc they send out a magazine called Spectrum and most of each issue is JOBS available, like a lot so check it out. I've been doing “lightwave technology” for past 5 years, it's definitely more than that but I can say the general area of focus.

[@ddrussianinja]

4:43 Uhh, and how exactly is one supposed to just download the Cornell Movie-Dialogs Corpus as a CSV? They only provide it in raw format and your source code link doesn't provide it (or the colab environment you used, for that matter). Yes, we can put together code to convert the raw data into CSV, but then we're not doing machine learning with no code, are we?

[@jude3046]

Yeah I'm trying to follow along as well and we're missing a step here for sure

[@ddrussianinja]

@@jude3046 I played around with this a bit yesterday. I found a DB version of the corpus and used a simple query to output it to a CSV file in the format shown in the video (you can find the format info in the Ludwig Examples section under "Chit-Chat Dialogue Modeling through Sequence2Sequence", which is also where they have the yaml file written out) and got Ludwig to load it all in a Colab GPU environment, but then I started getting out-of-memory errors, so I had to disable the TF_FORCE_GPU_ALLOW_GROWTH environment variable before running it (the command is "env TF_FORCE_GPU_ALLOW_GROWTH = false"). Colab still warns me when I run it that it's running low on GPU memory, but if you ignore the warning, it'll work fine. But even once it starts running properly, it takes a very long time to train in the Colab environment, probably around 10 hours or so, and Colab sessions recycle completely after about 12 hours, so make sure you're around when it completes or you'll probably just lose all the work and never get to test it. The CSV version of the Corpus I made is here (for the next 30 days) if you want it: ufile.io/eysat

[@jude3046]

Good video. Bringing up DataRobot definitely makes sense, and has some powerful features with a slick interface, but no love for H2O's Driverless AI? They play in similar spaces, but DAI runs on GPU's. Regular H2O also contains AutoML and through the Flow user interface can be setup through basically filling out a form. No coding required.

Hi Siraj, Good work as always. How is this different to AutoKeras and Google’s AutoML?

[@KenJee_ds]

Great video Siraj! I think AI for the masses is a great concept, but could also be quite concerning. When consumers use any form of advanced math to make decisions without an understanding of the underlying concepts, they are setting themselves up for failure. We get into a grey area where people say "the computer said it so it must be right", they don't realize that there could be problems with the data quality or the underlying model decisions that the AI is making.

[@alexanderwestberg795]

Hi Ken, for someone who is new to ML, do you think it's necessary to learn the concepts that ML models are based on in order to learn and analyze data in good way?

[@KenJee_ds]

@@alexanderwestberg795 I don't think that you should have to be able to code all the algorithms from scratch or anything, but you should have a high level understanding of what makes them tick. It is important to know: what makes one model different than another, if you need to have normalized or scaled data, and if the model makes any other assumptions that need to be taken into consideration.

9:32 ok, but programming line by line is still faster and better than drag & drop

[@GS-gi9bc]

WIth business intelligence and an interpretive knowledge based engine, the software can generate the code, line by line. Then it can be packaged to create the process function by function, then business process by business process. It all depends on the ability of the knowledge base engine to know how to be trained. I'm looking for a venture capitalist to partner with my software to roll out business based knowledgeware, targeting specific industries. Yes, it does mean a lot of line by line coders will have to take up some new skills to make a living. [e-mail] if you are looking to sponsor such a project.

[@davidbonn8740]

Siraj, Thanks for the great video. Tools like this are nice and obviously will become the way applications using deep learning are created in the future. However, this doesn't make the job *easy* or *simple*. My limited experience so far is that 90 percent of the work in any deep learning project is scheming furiously to build a bigger and better dataset. And I am convinced that for the vast majority of possible applications the datasets you'd need don't yet exist, or if they do exist they are awful or fundamentally broken in some way that makes them useless for an actual application that people would use. I suspect that someone is going to make a Great American Fortune developing curation tools for datasets.

C++ isn't hard. Code can be quite trivial if chosen the right resources.

C++ gets really verbose when you optimize it(simd, pointers, ...)

[@Iamwolf134]

Well, to be honest, Ludwig doesn't eliminate coding entirely. If anything, I can see Ludwig being used for extensive and quick beta testing so that human coders can refine their code. I can also see Ludwig being used for more mundane coding while Humans pour all of their effort into more special code.
