Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) 1273 3
Started by Patrick Ng
The first generation TPU was only able to handle inference. The new one can also be used for training machine learning models, a significant part of the machine learning workflow all within this single, powerful chip. That means that you can build a machine learning model — for example, to correctly identify an object in a photo is a tree, a car or a cat. Inference in machine learning refers to the statistical likelihood that the machine’s conclusions are correct — for example, based on the m...

First Principle and Neural Network Implementation 655 0
Started by Patrick Ng
This thread aims at linking first principle to deeper understanding of neural network implementation. First principle first, in both Unconventional and classic producing area, typical IP distribution is anything but a bell curve. For example, http://aemstatic-ww2.azureedge.net/content/dam/ogfj/print-articles/volume-13/issue-12/1612OGFJng-z01.jpg.scale.LARGE.jpg Recall geology fundamental, grain size distribution of sediments is also log normal. It suffices to reason that using...

Something for Everyone 917 0

For those who got flooded by Harvey or from “control release”, our thoughts and prayers are with you. As I was stuck at the house when Harvey was pouring down 51 inches of rain, surrounded by flooded streets and freeways, I thought about what would make this blog relevant to our members. I recall: a) the first time many machine and deep learning jargons appear daunting, b) after internal translation of machine learning speak to G&G experience, I can relate to much better. So here are three ...

Different Approach with a Common Thread - Use of First Principle 843 1
Started by Patrick Ng
Two articles illustrate with examples of creating tangible value: 1) DNN - https://www.onepetro.org/conference-paper/SPE-174799-MS 2) Multivariate - https://info.drillinginfo.com/machine-learning-in-oil-and-gas/ Food for thought - with infusion of G&G, learning with machine beats machine modeling alone
