Day #116 - Fake news detector

There are different kinds of Fake news

• Manipulating Event reported date, place and parties involved - - Fabricated news everything Fake
• Spreading Hatred against Specific groups
• Hate Messages

Solution Approach

• Step #1 - Using Naive Bayes to classify them Hate messages 
• Step #2 - Using Multiple sources to validate news details (Location, Date, news type verification)
• Step #3 - Validate the parties involved by comparing articles on same news
• Step #4 - On Major variations from reported news alert
• Step #5 - Facebook or google they will have large volumes of corpus to train, find more specific details on Fake news - Origination, Place, Time, ethnicity, Age group, Target Audience, Depending on them you can pre-screen news from such audience

Happy AI Learning!!!

Day #114 - OCR with Tesseract

Architecture for Tesseract link

Step 1 - Download Latest version for windows link

Step 2 - Pdf to Image Conversion using ImageMagik (Refer Previous Posts)

convert.exe -density 300 -trim D:\OCR\TestData\DEC17.pdf -quality 60 D:\OCR\TestData\DEC17.jpg

Step 3 - Tesseract Options using LSTM Networks

Optical Character Recognition

• Image Thresholding
• Contour formation
• Detecting individual characters and forming a Region of Image (ROI) around detected characters.
• Passing the ROIs through our trained model and finding out the predicted character
• Saving/Appending this character in a string, which is basically going to be your output.

Reading Research papers

Very insightful, practical and detailed. Its all about focus, repetitive efforts and passion to learn. Amazing lecture.

Goal Oriented Reading Strategy

Phase I

• Read title, Abstract 
• Use as Overview
• Skim through sections / sub sections
• No math in Pass I
• Correlate to known learning's
• Related Papers

Phase II

• Understand Mathematics
• Get Concept of Maths Formula
• Evaluate reports, repeatable results
• Download code repository
• Replicate results
• Additional resources on web to summarize texts
• Output - Notes, Helper Images

Phase III

• Maths
• Every detail of Math
• Break down equations
• Wikipedia references
• Replicate paper programmatically using equations / settings

Key is 'Never Give Up', 'Turn your frustrations into Fuel', 'Ask for Help'

How to Write a Research Paper

From Siraj Session - Link

• Remind to Stay Positive and Belief
• Start with Questions to arrive at Topic
• Broad / Specific
• Find answers for those questions
• Well articulated and laser focussed on solution for problem
• Collect data on topic
• Remember to search through variey of sources, critical in assessment
• Start Learning from Sources
• Make Generalizations
• Find common ideas across projects
• Synthesis of Data
• Use it as Thesis
• Defend belief based on series of compelling experiments
• Ask for validation
• Get Super basic functional baseline
• Write outline from common subsections between different papers
• Generalized form of different papers
• Sections for your projects
• Document research process and results
• 5 to 10 Pages ideal length
• Never Plagarize
• Omnigraph, inscape

Happy Learning, Reading and Writing!!!
