Introduction Would you like to write a neural network from start to finish? Are you perhaps shaky on some of the fundamental concepts and derivations, such as categorical cross-entropy loss or backpropagation? Alternatively, would you like an introduction to machine...
Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) is a popular framework for making .NET applications. In addition to built-in controls, WPF supports the use of other control libraries to access new functionality, such as viewing and modifying several document formats with...
Communicating ideas in digital documents can often be made much clearer through the use of layers. Layers have been supported in PDF documents since version 1.5 through optional content groups (OCGs), also known as PDF layers. "Optional" is key here. OCGs...
Handwriting digit recognition using TensorFlow and MNIST has become a pretty common introduction to artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). "MINST" is the Modified National Institute of Standards and Technology database, which contains 70,000...
A text-to-speech (TTS) engine is the crucial element of systems looking to create a natural interaction between humans and machines based on embedded devices. An embedded device can, for example, help visually impaired people read signs, letters, and documents. More...
Machine learning (ML) with neural networks is enabling exciting new inference capabilities for software. Typically, ML models have run in the cloud, which meant that, to make a classification or prediction, you needed to send the text, sound, or images over the...
