Are we going to see sequence labeling in this course or any other NLP related tasks?

opsy · October 29, 2018, 2:42pm

I am currently in Nigeria and the local time of tge course for me is weekdays @ 2:30am. Its really tough to stick around. Can anything be done as regards it.

davidpfahler · October 29, 2018, 3:13pm

Same for me. Unfortunately, someone around the globe has to bite the bullet. If it is too disruptive for you, you can always rewatch the YouTube stream the following day.

opsy · October 29, 2018, 3:31pm

Ok thanks for the reply. I am watching d video of the first class. I am finding it difficult to join a study team - cant seem to find any on my timezone. Pls can you help with suggestions also?

Benoit_c · October 29, 2018, 3:58pm

Africa+1 is in the same timezone as Europe+1 so if you find nobody in Africa (it will suprise me) you could join a European group.

Thanks Benoit. I found “Lagos study group”

Hey Opsy, try to make the effort staying awake. Trust me it’s a great moment. It’s just once a week. And if you can’t, the recorded video is available right away.

Cheers.

Is there any way to check the Seasonality(Additive or Multiplicative) of the time series data or do we have to identify manually by plotting the graph ?

iArunava · October 30, 2018, 1:09am

If I am not wrong, then fast.ai live part 3 lecture 2 starts in half an hour.
And I cannot find any links where to watch the live session.

ilangurudev · October 30, 2018, 1:15am

I think it’s tomorrow. I was mistaken too.

shwetap7 · October 30, 2018, 1:20am

where is lecture 2 link?

champs.jaideep · October 30, 2018, 1:26am

purpose of data.normalize(imagenet_stats )

akxkcd · October 30, 2018, 1:28am

I m looking for the link as well.

iArunava · October 30, 2018, 1:30am

Hah!. Somehow when I saved the event to Google Calendar, It got saved as 7:00am Oct 30.
It is originally in Oct 30 6:30PM Pacific time.

Which means for us Indian users, it is in Oct 31 7:00am.

Meet you all in the live session tommorow.

By the way, If any of you are from Kolkata, India, we can form a study group. Are you in?

tiwariswati · October 30, 2018, 1:37am

iArunava · October 30, 2018, 1:39am

As I said, for us Indian users, Its October 31, 7:00 am.
Which is tommorow.
