This year I had a great pleasure to be involved in a research project, which required me to get familiar with a substantial number of publications from the domain of deep learning for computer vision. It allowed me to take a deep dive into the field and I was amazed by the progress done in the last 2-3 years. It is truly exciting and motivating ... Read more 31 Dec 2018 - 16 minute read
Since I have learned about long short-term memory (LSTM) networks, I have always wanted to apply those algorithms in practice. Recently I had a chance to work on a project which requires deeper understanding of the mathematical foundations behind LSTM models. I have been investigating how LSTMs are implemented in the source code of Keras library... Read more 19 May 2018 - 10 minute read
In year 2003 the team of scientists from the Carnegie Mellon university has created a mobile robot called Groundhog, which could explore and create the map of an abandoned coal mine. The rover explored tunnels, which were too toxic for people to enter and where oxygen levels were too low for humans to remain concious. The task was not easy: navi...

Bayes’ rule may be one of the numerous formulas students are introduced to during A-Level maths course. I believe that most pupils (including myself back in the days) usually learn it by heart, use it without thought during their statistics exam and quickly forget it. But Bayesian reasoning may actually be one of the most important mathematical ... Read more 27 Dec 2017 - 11 minute read
