accuracy

Accuracy in machine learning classification model (classifier) is a measure of how frequently each classification is correctly deemed positive or negative. Accuracy is calculated by the following mathematical formula accuracy = (true positives + true negatives) / (all estimated values) Use the following reference for some good visual examples of accuracy, precision and recall: https://www.evidentlyai.com/classification-metrics/accuracy-precision-recall.

activation function

An activation function in artificial neural networks (ANN) is a function which computes the output of an artificial neuron to solve non-linear tasks. The activation function of a neural network essentially decides whether a neuron should be activated or not.

adversarial machine learning

The term adversarial machine learning describes all possible defense measures against cyber attacks on machine learning models.

Adversarial ML Threat Matrix

The Adversarial ML Threat Matrix is a framework aimed at detecting and resolving cybersecurity threats in ML systems. The Adversarial ML Threat Matrix is based on the MITRE ATT&CK Matrix.

AI accelerator

AI accelerator An AI accelerator is a specialized hardware component which is mainly utilized for artificial intelligence tasks. It can perform AI computations in a more efficient manner than conventional computer processors (CPU), hence AI accelerators are also known as Neural Processing Units (NPU). By using algorithms for parallelism, AI accelerators can enchance performance of ... Read more

ASIC

Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) are custom-built integrated circuit (IC) electronic systems, which are designed to optimize AI and ML workloads. ASICs have a large application spectrum, including for example video and voice codecs. In contrast to ASICs which are application specific, there are various general purpose Integrated Circuit systems, such as FPGAs.

AUC

AUC stands for Area Under the Curve. This refers to the two-dimensional area which is defined by a mathematical plot curve, the x-axis and two boundary points.

augmentation

In data engineering, augmentation is a process by which we create various transformations of the available data in the ML training dataset. Augmentation task examples are the perturbation of an image in different ways. Augmentation aims at increasing the amount of data input provided to a model to better fit the data into the model ...
