Machine Learning 2 deep Learning: An IntroSi Krishan
Provides a brief introduction to machine learning, reasons for its popularity, a simple walk through example and then a need for deep learning and some of its characteristics. This is an updated version of an earlier presentation.
Innovations in technology has revolutionized financial services to an extent that large financial institutions like Goldman Sachs are claiming to be technology companies! It is no secret that technological innovations like Data science and AI are changing fundamentally how financial products are created, tested and delivered. While it is exciting to learn about technologies themselves, there is very little guidance available to companies and financial professionals should retool and gear themselves towards the upcoming revolution.
In this master class, we will discuss key innovations in Data Science and AI and connect applications of these novel fields in forecasting and optimization. Through case studies and examples, we will demonstrate why now is the time you should invest to learn about the topics that will reshape the financial services industry of the future!

Deep Credit Risk Ranking with LSTM with Kyle GroveDatabricks
Find out how Teradata and some of world’s largest financial institutions are innovating credit risk ranking with deep learning techniques and AnalyticOps. With the AnalyticOps framework, these organization have built models with increased accuracy to drive more profitable lending decisions, while being explainable to regulators.
Join us for a live session and learn about:
A machine learning ensemble including LSTM that achieves 90%+ accuracy at predicting delinquency/default, exceeding conventional credit risk methods by more than 20%.
A model management accelerator that is used to build and deploy the models in an integrated cloud platform, based on TensorFlow and Spark, and supports Keras, DeepLearning4J and SparkML models.
An innovative technique for model interpretability that obviates LIME’s need to generate synthetic examples.
Credit scoring has been used to categorize customers based on various characteristics to evaluate their credit worthiness. Increasingly, machine learning techniques are being deployed for customer segmentation, classification and scoring. In this talk, we will discuss various machine learning techniques that can be used for credit risk applications. Through a case study built in R, we will illustrate the nuances of working with practical data sets which includes categorical and numerical data, different techniques that can be used to evaluate and explore customer profiles, visualizing high dimensional data sets and machine learning techniques for customer segmentation.
The importance of model fairness and interpretability in AI systemsFrancesca Lazzeri, PhD
Machine learning model fairness and interpretability are critical for data scientists, researchers and developers to explain their models and understand the value and accuracy of their findings. Interpretability is also important to debug machine learning models and make informed decisions about how to improve them.
In this session, Francesca will go over a few methods and tools that enable you to "unpack” machine learning models, gain insights into how and why they produce specific results, assess your AI systems fairness and mitigate any observed fairness issues.
Using open-source fairness and interpretability packages, attendees will learn how to:
- Explain model prediction by generating feature importance values for the entire model and/or individual data points.
- Achieve model interpretability on real-world datasets at scale, during training and inference.
- Use an interactive visualization dashboard to discover patterns in data and explanations at training time.
- Leverage additional interactive visualizations to assess which groups of users might be negatively impacted by a model and compare multiple models in terms of their fairness and performance.
Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.

Data Centers - Striving Within A Narrow Range - Research Report - MCG - May 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) expects to see demand and the changing evolution of supply, facilitated through institutional investment rotation out of offices and into work from home (“WFH”), while the ever-expanding need for data storage as global internet usage expands, with experts predicting 5.3 billion users by 2023. These market factors will be underpinned by technological changes, such as progressing cloud services and edge sites, allowing the industry to see strong expected annual growth of 13% over the next 4 years.
Whilst competitive headwinds remain, represented through the recent second bankruptcy filing of Sungard, which blames “COVID-19 and other macroeconomic trends including delayed customer spending decisions, insourcing and reductions in IT spending, energy inflation and reduction in demand for certain services”, the industry has seen key adjustments, where MCG believes that engineering cost management and technological innovation will be paramount to success.
MCG reports that the more favorable market conditions expected over the next few years, helped by the winding down of pandemic restrictions and a hybrid working environment will be driving market momentum forward. The continuous injection of capital by alternative investment firms, as well as the growing infrastructural investment from cloud service providers and social media companies, whose revenues are expected to grow over 3.6x larger by value in 2026, will likely help propel center provision and innovation. These factors paint a promising picture for the industry players that offset rising input costs and adapt to new technologies.
According to M Capital Group: “Specifically, the long-term cost-saving opportunities available from the rise of remote managing will likely aid value growth for the industry. Through margin optimization and further availability of capital for reinvestment, strong players will maintain their competitive foothold, while weaker players exit the market to balance supply and demand.”

1. Using Generative Augmentation
to improve ‘Learning
from Crowds’
Neetha Sherra
San Jose State University
CMPE 255-Introduction to Data Mining
2. Introduction
• A typical classification problem is supervised
• Example, the commonly referred to Iris dataset
• The two common ways to solve this problem
- Feed the data to an unsupervised ML model
- Crowdsource the labels
3. Crowdsourcing: Definition, pros and cons
• Crowdsourcing in general is a process wherein a dispersed group of
participants provide a service either as volunteers or for payment
• Advantages
- Cost-effective
- Time-saving
• Disadvantages
- Sparsity
- Low-quality
• The disadvantages can be addressed but nullifies the advantage of using
crowdsourcing (catch-22)
4. How does CrowdInG help?
• CrowdInG-Crowdsourced data through Informative Generative augmentation
uses generative AI to perform data augmentation on missing labels
• Its main goal is the accuracy of labels
- reflect the ground-truth
- true to the distribution of crowdsourced labels
• It is based on Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs)
- Generator
- Discriminator
6. CrowdInG framework continued ..
• S = {𝑥𝑛, 𝑦𝑛}
- where n -> [1, N]
− 𝑥𝑛: feature vector of instance n
- 𝑦𝑛: annotation vector of instance n from R annotators (with missing values)
- 𝑒𝑟: feature vector of the r-th annotator (when available)
- 𝑧𝑛: unobserved ground-truth label
- Goal: a classifier that learns directly from S
• Generative module
- Classifier given instance x outputs its predicted label
- Generator takes the classifier output + feature vector + annotator vector
• Discriminative module
- Discriminator determines whether the annotation is authentic or generated
- Auxiliary network penalizes the generative network based on the classified + generated label
• The two modules are involved in a minimax game
7. Training and model optimization
• Entropy-based annotation selection
- Training bias because of annotation sparsity
- Equal sample sizes for original and generated annotations
• Two-step update for the generative module
- Generator and classifier are coupled
- Strong negative correlation between the entropy of a classifier’s output and its
accuracy
- Instances with low classification entropy are used to update the generator
- Updated generator is then used to update the rest of the instances for the
classifier
8. Experiments
• For evaluation three real-
world datasets were
employed with a subset of
low-quality annotators was
selected.
• The results of CrowdInG
were compared with a
state-of-the-art baselines
with the same classifier
design
• Outperforms models
designed for complex
confusions
9. Experiments
continued…
• To study the utility of
augmented annotations
and investigate
performance, observed
annotations were gradually
removed
• While there was a large
amount of sparsity on
removal of annotations,
CrowdInG still performs
consistently well
10. Conclusion
• Data sparsity is a huge challenge
• Demonstrates its effectiveness and provides a potential way forward
in the area of low-budget crowdsourcing
• Future potential
- Annotator education based on annotator-specific confusions
- Task assignment based on instance-specific confusions
