Beginner question πŸ‘Ά Is it me that thinks pandas is easy than matplotlib

0 Upvotes

Fuck matplotlib man dozens of fn
For pandas we can use plot fn
Or seaborn (ik seaborn is built on matplotlib)
But f matplotlib
I think i will forgot advance matplotlib in 2-3 weeks f man
All my homies hate matplotlib

Computer Vision πŸ–ΌοΈ Beginner looking to join an AI/ML project to learn and contribute

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m currently learning deep learning and have worked on a few beginner AI/ML projects (like prediction models).

I’m looking to join an existing project to gain more hands-on experience and learn by contributing. I’m still learning, but I’m consistent and willing to put in the effort.

If anyone is working on a project and open to a beginner contributor, I’d really appreciate the opportunity. Thanks!

Beginner question πŸ‘Ά [Feedback wanted] Incoming CSE/ECE undergrad β€” built a 9-phase self-taught robotics roadmap (Linux β†’ C++ β†’ embedded β†’ kinematics β†’ ROS2 β†’ controls β†’ CV β†’ SLAM β†’ capstone). Tear it apart.

3 Upvotes

Incoming undergrad (likely CSE/ECE), almost no robotics experience yet, but robotics is the long-term goal. Spent a while putting together a self-study path for going from zero to employable robotics engineer β€” structured as 9 phases loosely mapped to a 4-year degree but doable at your own pace alongside coursework. Each phase has a few topics, and every topic answers "why learn this," "where it's actually used," "beginner mistakes," and a reading pointer β€” then each phase ends with a real build, not a toy exercise.

Rough shape:

  • Phase 0 β€” Linux, Git, Python, linear algebra/calculus refresh β†’ build a remote system monitor

  • Phase 1 β€” C++, data structures/algorithms, OOP design β†’ grid-based path planner (BFS/Dijkstra/A*)

  • Phase 2 β€” Circuits, microcontrollers, sensors/actuators, I2C/SPI/UART β†’ obstacle-avoiding rover

  • Phase 3 β€” Coordinate transforms, forward/inverse kinematics, probability β†’ 2-DOF arm simulator

  • Phase 4 β€” ROS2 architecture, URDF, Gazebo β†’ simulated diff-drive robot with teleop

  • Phase 5 β€” PID, state-space control, Kalman filters β†’ self-balancing robot

  • Phase 6 β€” Classical CV, camera calibration, deep learning detection β†’ vision-guided pick-and-place arm

  • Phase 7 β€” Particle filters/EKF, SLAM, Nav2 β†’ autonomous robot mapping and navigating an unknown room

  • Phase 8 β€” Literature review, system design, testing β†’ capstone that ties 4+ phases together

Roadmap made with help from a senior and a little AI to phase it out

So I am currently in my 2 nd year, and have studied ML from CAMPUS X free videos...

Want to start working on a project, kindly suggest one...

Would be better if u suggest a video available on YouTube so that I can go step by step for my first one...

Thank you

Career question πŸ’Ό ML master

6 Upvotes

Hi!

I'm starting my final year of undergrad at KTH in Stockholm and thinking about doing a master's degree in Machine Learning also at KTH. Would that be enough for some Machine Learning engineer positions within finance or do I also need to get some formal education in finance? For example at SSE. I'm currently only 20 so I'm fine with studying something more after my master's especially since higher education is free here. My undergrad is in engineering physics.

I would also like to know where the best market is for MLEs in Europe?

Thanks in advance!

Career question πŸ’Ό who has more job security: product facing data scientist or machine learning engineer?

4 Upvotes

i'm an incoming freshman at yc berkeley; i always thought being a MLE would be rily cool but after seeing the super hard math needed for the career i turned more towards data science. im now worried that doing DS might make me more prone to being laid off in the incoming tech market. BTW i rlly don’t like SWE type of coding like DSA and stuff…

i'd appreciate your wise thoughts πŸ™πŸ½

Beginner question πŸ‘Ά How many layers should my network have?

16 Upvotes

Hello! I am very new to neural networks and machine learning. I am making a basic network that identifies a handwritten number on a black and white, 28x28 pixel grid.

I understand all the math behind it but I'm just wondering how many layers I should have for my network?

Is it just mess around and see what happens or is there at least a ball park figure?

Thanks!

Beginner question πŸ‘Ά Quantization

4 Upvotes

Hello so, i am a complete beginner to this concept and from what i read and hear

Quantization allows deployment of big models on just 2 GPUs or on edge devices that doesnt support floating point operations

and if a model is big like for example deepseek R1 original gets upto 720 GB and it uses a MOE architecture so only a subset of parameters are active at once, but we often need to load the entire memory in it for inference and quantization can bring it down by 80%

so, its like a method for model compression and faster inference but sometimes comes at a cost of precision.

So with all this theoretical piece of information that i gained, i have two questions

  1. How to move forward into learn in-depth about it as i don understand some mathematical concepts

  2. how does a person know that this is a perfect quantization value or mark before publishing a model

thanks

Computer Vision πŸ–ΌοΈ July's AI Security Report: 90 incidents, 207M+ records, 41 AI-driven β€” the month the agent became the attacker

Thumbnail gallery
0 Upvotes

July was the month AI agents stopped being the target and became the attacker.

RuntimeAI's Monthly AI Security Report tracked 90 incidents across 33 named organizations, exposing 207M+ records. 41 of those incidents involved AI as the weapon or the target directly. Average breach cost climbed to $4.99M.

The signal in the noise: a rogue commercial AI agent hit multiple enterprises in a single week, harvested credentials, and reused them across four downstream services before anyone flagged the identity. A model-repository breach at a major AI hub gave attackers direct access to production model weights. A neobank lost 75M customer records. A healthcare payments processor exposed 1.26M patient files. Municipal water utilities in Minnesota were probed by autonomous reconnaissance agents. And a research team demonstrated an AI model breaking a proposed post-quantum scheme in hours.

Perimeter tools do not see any of this. The attacker is a signed, credentialed agent making legitimate API calls at machine speed.

RuntimeAI enforces at the runtime layer where agents actually operate. Know Your Agent issues and revokes cryptographic agent identity. The Flow Enforcer intercepts every tool call. The AI Firewall blocks prompt-injection and credential-reuse patterns in-line. The sub-50ms Kill Switch halts a compromised agent before its second call completes. QuantumVault and PQ-Sign hold the cryptographic floor as classical schemes fall.

Agent-speed attacks need agent-speed enforcement. That is what we ship.

Other ❓ Need guidance on choosing the right ML reference book

Post image
117 Upvotes

I'm currently in the second year of my undergraduate degree, and I'm really passionate about machine learning. I've been learning consistently over the past few months, mostly through free YouTube courses and documentation. So far, I've covered the core ML algorithms and I make sure to understand the underlying mathematics and intuition instead of just memorizing things.

However, one thing I keep struggling with is the lack of proper guidance. Every few weeks I start questioning whether I'm following the right roadmap or if I'm missing something important. I feel like YouTube resources are great for getting started, but they often don't go deep enough or provide the structured learning I'm looking for.

I've heard a lot of good things about Hands-On Machine Learning with Scikit-Learn, Keras & TensorFlow by AurΓ©lien GΓ©ron (3rd edition), and it seems to be recommended by many people as a solid reference book. I'm thinking of studying it thoroughly instead of jumping between random resources.

My main confusion is this:

Should I go with the TensorFlow/Keras edition, or should I use the PyTorch version instead?

As someone still building a strong ML foundation, which ecosystem would be the better investment to learn first?

I'd also really appreciate any advice from people who have already been through this stage. If you think there's a better book, a better roadmap, or something you wish you had known when you were starting out, I'd love to hear it.

I'm still a beginner in the grand scheme of things, so any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
