Applications of Big Data

Today in class we covered the different ways data can be portrayed. We used two different applications to display this information.

Word cloud

Below is a word cloud i created that contains all the lyrics for 'She's Electric' by Oasis. The bigger words represent the words that are mentioned more frequently throughout the song. This was very quick to make and is very effective at displaying information.


Machine Learning/Teachable AI

I personally find machine learning to be super exciting and interesting. Being able to create our own AI in class was a blast. It uses classification techniques and recognition to distinguish between certain criteria and give a certain response. For our example, We created an AI that was able to recognise if someone was wearing glasses or not and read a text-to-speech response saying "glasses" or "no glasses." i wanted to recreate this myself however with a basic prompt. This time the AI would distinguish between apples and oranges, created by AI imagery as well. I will then generate a brand new image of an apple, an orange, and a mango to test the accuracy of the model. The results were surprisingly good and are listed below.

Some of the samples used for apples and oranges.

Apple test.




Orange test.



Mango test.

Overall, this was a lot of fun and I was surprised to see how accurate the results were. It's interesting how the model classifies the mango as majority apple but still has a small percentage of orange. How cool is that?
