Best Techniques to Get Traffic to Your Site

  The first thing I do is figure out what keywords to use. These are what words people will put in a search engine to find your site. Google has a key word idea tool that I use to look at how many searches a word gets in a month. If a word is searched more than one hundred times than that is enough traffic. It is best to find several of these words. Using long tail words will help. They are phrases rather than just single words. Then Google them to check out your competition. First use quotes around your words. The number of results will tell you how many other sites you’ll be competing against. The smaller number the better here, I shoot for under ten thousand but sometimes I’ll go higher. It depends on what the competition looks like on the first page without quotes. I look at the page rank of each site and average that number. I use a FireFox add on to do this. If all of the page ranks are lower than 4 it will be easy to get on the first page. Make a list of your keywords and us...

The three challenges of deep learning/ Reinforcement Learning Systems

Image
Reinforcement learning systems are very bad at transfer learning. A bot that plays StarCraft 2 at grandmaster level needs to be trained from scratch if it wants to play Warcraft 3. In fact, even small changes to the StarCraft game environment can immensely degrade the performance of the AI. In contrast, humans are very good at extracting abstract concepts from one game and transferring it to another game. Reinforcement learning really shows its limits when it wants to learn to solve real-world problems that can’t be simulated accurately. “What if you want to train a car to drive itself? And it’s very hard to simulate this accurately,” LeCun said, adding that if we wanted to do it in real life, “we would have to destroy many cars.” And unlike simulated environments, real life doesn’t allow you to run experiments in fast forward, and parallel experiments, when possible, would result in even greater costs. The three challenges of deep learning LeCun breaks down the challenges of deep lear...

Machine Learning Algorithms to Analyze Rodents Express Face Changes

Image
AI has revealed that mice have a range of facial expressions that show they feel — offering fresh clues about how emotional responses arise in human brains. Scientists at the Max Planck Institute of Neurobiology in Germany made the discovery by recording the faces of lab mice when they were exposed to different stimuli, such as sweet flavors and electric shocks. The researchers then used machine learning algorithms to analyze how the rodents’ faces changed when they experienced different feelings. The software showed that their facial muscles would subtly shift as their emotions changed. Mice feeling pain pulled their ears back and puffed out their cheeks, while mice experiencing pleasure would push their jaw and ears forward, and pull their nose towards their mouths. The AI also revealed that their expressions varied depending on how they felt before receiving the stimuli. For example, when a thirsty mouse was given a sugary drink, its face showed more joy than a rodent whose thirst w...
