Initial Post
Machine Learning is ubiquitous. Machines and gadgets all around us are continuously learning from the behaviour of their users and the surrounding world. I am interested in this learning process, its algorithmic mechanics and its motivation. I plan to concentrate my work on machine learning
- as an interactive tool,
- in terms of borders of possible applications (empathy, self-awareness),
- in the fact that it can detect patterns, where we do not see any
- and its use of "statistical stereotypes" for decision-making.
Progress
I am currently in a research phase, this includes
- theory: working on lecture and exercises by Benno Stein on Machine Learning
- application: playing around with wekinator and this helpful framework for interfacing it with osc-protocol
The following picture shows the setup on my computer, while playing around with wekinator: It shows the Wekinator-UI on the upper right corner, some code to interface it with osc-protocol on the lower right corner, the voice-input-interface from the wekinator example set on the lower left corner and finally the command-line-output of the classified voice on the upper left corner. The command-line-interface shows the output of a model, that is trained to classify 2 different voices. It outputs '1' for one voice, and '2' for the other voice.
