Contrastive Learning: A Tutorial
Contrastive learning is a machine learning technique that trains models to distinguish between similar and dissimilar data pairs. It can be used for self-supervised learning and other use cases.
A robot reading a book. The expectation maximization algorithm is used to estimate the parameters of probabilistic models.
Guide to Expectation Maximization Algorithm
The expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm is used to estimate model parameters when some data is missing or hidden. It iteratively assigns probabilities to hidden variables and updates parameters to maximize the likelihood of the observed data.
