I want to try to solve captchas with an artificial intelligence. Therefore I need to generate captchas with the solution in its name.
I thought of captchas like this:
Does anyone of you has an idee how to generate such captchas?
For your info: Creating an artifical intelligence which can solve such captchas is a challenge for me - i'm NOT interesed in publish it or doing any bad things with it.
With best regards,
Philipp
I do not have much idea about creating systems which generate Captchas from a given name. Yes, you can Convolutional Neural networks for identifying captchas. Then you can follow these steps.
Create a Convolutional neural network. Refer here.
Get a dataset which contains a number of captchas with their hidden names.
Train the network over the dataset.
Make predictions.
Hope it helped you.

I am using transfer learning technique for medical image classification. However, model start to overfit after reaching 88-89%. I used spatial droupout , augmentation but didn't help. I want to achieve good accuracy. I appreciate help from experts.
Thank you
I think you just need to try some different models. You can apply many standard AI and data science techniques to overlapping business problems. Model selection is the process of deciding which techniques are best suited to solve your problem. It follows a process of experimentation that depends on your data. Most likely, you can apply multiple models to expose insights into your business problem.
See the two links below for some ideas of how to proceed.

I'm trying to train a model for a sentence classification task. The input is a sentence (a vector of integers) and the output is a label (0 or 1). I've seen some articles here and there about using Bert and GPT2 for text classification tasks. However, I'm not sure which one should I pick to start with. Which of these recent models in NLP such as original Transformer model, Bert, GPT2, XLNet would you use to start with? And why? I'd rather to implement in Tensorflow, but I'm flexible to go for PyTorch too.
Thanks!
It highly depends on your dataset and is part of the data scientist's job to find which model is more suitable for a particular task in terms of selected performance metric, training cost, model complexity etc.
When you work on the problem you will probably test all of the above models and compare them. Which one of them to choose first? Andrew Ng in "Machine Learning Yearning" suggest starting with simple model so you can quickly iterate and test your idea, data preprocessing pipeline etc.
Don’t start off trying to design and build the perfect system.
Instead, build and train a basic system quickly—perhaps in just a few
days
According to this suggestion, you can start with a simpler model such as ULMFiT as a baseline, verify your ideas and then move on to more complex models and see how they can improve your results.
Note that modern NLP models contain a large number of parameters and it is difficult to train them from scratch without a large dataset. That's why you may want to use transfer learning: you can download pre-trained model and use it as a basis and fine-tune it to your task-specific dataset to achieve better performance and reduce training time.
I agree with Max's answer, but if the constraint is to use a state of the art large pretrained model, there is a really easy way to do this. The library by HuggingFace called pytorch-transformers. Whether you chose BERT, XLNet, or whatever, they're easy to swap out. Here is a detailed tutorial on using that library for text classification.
EDIT: I just came across this repo, pytorch-transformers-classification (Apache 2.0 license), which is a tool for doing exactly what you want.
Well like others mentioned, it depends on the dataset and multiple models should be tried and best one must be chosen.
However, sharing my experience, XLNet beats all other models so far by a good margin. Hence if learning is not the objective, i would simple start with XLNET and then try a few more down the line and conclude. It just saves time in exploring.
Below repo is excellent to do all this quickly. Kudos to them.

It uses hugging face transformers and makes them dead simple. 😃
I have used XLNet, BERT, and GPT2 for summarization tasks (English only). Based on my experience, GPT2 works the best among all 3 on short paragraph-size notes, while BERT performs better for longer texts (up to 2-3 pages). You can use XLNet as a benchmark.
Suppose that I have want to make a model that does something. Now when I search about the topic in Google or YouTube, I find many related tutorials and it seems like some clever programmer had already implemented that model with Deep learning.
But how do they know that what type of layers, what type of activation functions, loss functions, optimizer, number of units etc. they need to solve that certain problem using deep learning.
Are there any techniques for knowing this, or its just a matter of understanding and experience? Also it would be very helpful if somebody could point me to some videos or articles answering my question.
This is more of a matter of understanding and experience. When building a model from scratch, you must understand which optimizer, loss, etc. makes sense for your particular problem. In order to choose these appropriately, you must understand the differences between the available optimizers, loss functions, etc.
In regards to choosing how many layers and nodes, what batch size, what learning rate, etc.-- these are all hyperparameters that you will need to test and tune as you experiment with your model.
I have a Deep Learning Fundamentals YouTube playlist that you may find helpful. It covers the fundamental basics of each of these topics in short videos. Additionally, this Deep Learning with Keras playlist may also be beneficial if you're wanting to focus more on coding after getting the basic concepts down.
Thanks for the question.
The CS231n Stanford lectures on CNN is the best for beginners refer to the video lectures here and class notes are available here
After watching the lectures and completing the assignments, you will get a basic idea of what Deep Learning is and all the algorithms available etc.
But when it comes to solving real-world problems this won't be sufficient So take this course by Jeremy Howard where he teaches more on how to approach a problem using Kaggle platform.
Keep on solving more problems experimenting new models and algorithms using several platforms like hackerearth, Kaggle, topcoder etc.
I have faced some problem when I needed to solve Regression Task and use as minimum instances as possible. When I tried to use Xgboost I had to feed 4 instances to get the reasonable result. But Multilayer Perceptron tuned to overcoming Regression problems has to take 20 instances, tried to change amount of neurons&layers but the answer is still 20 .Is it possible to do something to make Neural Network solve Resgression tasks with from 2 to 4 instances? if yes - explain please what should I do to succeed in it? Maybe there is some correlation between how much instances are needed to train and get reasonable results from Perceptron and how features are valuable inside dataset?
Thanks in advance for any help
With small numbers of samples, there are likely better methods to apply, Xgaboost definitely comes to mind as a method that does quite well at avoiding overfitting.
Neural networks tend to work well with larger numbers of samples. They often over fit to small datasets and underperform other algorithms.
There is, however, an active area of research in semi-supervised techniques using neural networks with large datasets of unlabeled data and small datasets of labeled samples.
Here's a paper to start you down that path, search on 'semi supervised learning'.
http://vdel.me.cmu.edu/publications/2011cgev/paper.pdf
Another area of interest to reduce overfitting in smaller datasets is in multi-task learning.
http://ruder.io/multi-task/
Multi task learning requires the network to achieve multiple target goals for a given input. Adding more requirements tends to reduce the space of solutions that the network can converge on and often achieves better results because of it. To say that differently: when multiple objectives are defined, the parameters necessary to do well at one task are often beneficial for the other task and vice versa.
Lastly, another area of open research is GANs and how they might be used in semi-supervised learning. No papers pop to the forefront of my mind on the subject just now, so I'll leave this mention as a footnote.
Currently, I am working on deep neural network for image detection and I founded a model called YOLO Network, and it's very powerful to make objects detections, but I have a question:
How can we design and concept our own model? Do we use a brut force for that, for example "I use 2 convolutional and 1 pooling layer and 1 fully connected layer" after that if the result is'nt good I change the number of layers and change the parameter until I find the best model, Please if there is anyone who knows some informations about that, show me how ?
I use Tensorflow.
Thanks,
There are a couple of papers addressing this issue. For example in http://www.cv-foundation.org/openaccess/content_cvpr_2016/papers/Szegedy_Rethinking_the_Inception_CVPR_2016_paper.pdf some general principles are mentioned, like preserving information by not having too rapid changes in any cut of the graph seperating the output from the input.
Another paper is https://arxiv.org/pdf/1606.02228.pdf where specific hyperparameter combinations are tried.
The remainder are just what you observe in practice and depends on your dataset and on your requirement. Maybe you have performance requirements because you want to deploy to mobile or you need more than 90 % accuracy. Then you will have to choose your model accordingly.
