Blog posts
I have my personal blog where I write about artificial intelligence, machine learning, technical business and other random stuff that comes to my mind. The blog has been designed to mimic the appearance of a scientific paper. I did it that way to honor my scientific background. The code is open-sourced and can be found in this repo.
In addition, some of the posts have code supporting the articles. The code is available in this repo.
Here there is the list of posts published on my blog and other blogs:
