Closed-Loop Intelligence: A Design Pattern for Machine Learning
Machine learning is a fantastic tool, but getting the most out of it requires a lot more than building a model and making a few predictions. This article discusses the technology you can implement to support a machine learning based solution’s growth process, taking it from an error prone first release to a world class intelligence.

Neural Anomaly Detection Using PyTorch
Anomaly detection is the process of finding rare items in a dataset. Using the PyTorch library, James McCaffrey presents a demo program that creates a neural autoencoder to handle anomaly detection, which comes with an addtional benefit in that neural techniques can handle non-numeric data by encoding that data.
