AI in Finance and FinTech
This module explores the application of advanced machine learning techniques within the financial sector.
It focuses on developing skills relevant to data science careers, including mastery of AI expertise and professional development for data scientists.
The Core Idea
Transfer learning and domain adaptation are techniques that allow machine learning models to perform well on new datasets that differ from the ones they were originally trained on.
These methods aim to leverage knowledge gained from one task or domain to improve performance in another, reducing the need for extensive retraining with fresh data.
Types of Domain Adaptation Techniques
Several techniques fall under the umbrella of domain adaptation:
Instance Weighting: This approach assigns weights to individual data points, prioritizing those that exhibit similarities across both source and target domains.
Frequently asked questions
What is instance weighting in domain adaptation?
Instance weighting assigns different weights to training examples based on their similarity to both the original source data and the new, target data.
