2. Glossary

alt-f1
ALT-F1 designs, implements, deploys and supports secure, large-scale software solutions for diverse industries: Manufacturing, MRO, Warehouse, Broadcasting, Bank, Insurance, Law Enforcement, Counter terrorism, Justice & Serious International Crime
autograd
Module that PyTorch uses to calculate gradients for training neural networks See https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/notes/autograd.html
BY Systems
See https://by-systems.weebly.com
Conda
Package, dependency and environment management for any language—Python, R, Ruby, Lua, Scala, Java, JavaScript, C/ C++, FORTRAN
CUDA
PyTorch uses a library called CUDA to accelerate operations using the GPU
Gradients
A gradient is a partial derivative — why partial? Because one computes it with respect to (w.r.t.) a single parameter. We have two parameters, a and b, so we must compute two partial derivatives See https://towardsdatascience.com/understanding-pytorch-with-an-example-a-step-by-step-tutorial-81fc5f8c4e8e
Layers
The first layer shown on the bottom here are the inputs, understandably called the input layer. The middle layer is called the hidden layer, and the final layer (on the right) is the output layer.

NumPy
Interacts with PyTorch
OpenMined
OpenMined is an open-source community focused on researching, developing, and promoting tools for secure, privacy-preserving, value-aligned artificial intelligence. https://www.openmined.org
PyTorch
To build a network and run data forward through it
Session Initiation Protocol
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Session_Initiation_Protocol
Sigmoid function
A sigmoid function is a mathematical function having a characteristic “S”-shaped curve or sigmoid curve. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmoid
SIP
See Session Initiation Protocol
SIREMIS
Web Management Interface for Kamailio (OpenSER) SIP Server See https://siremis.asipto.com
tensors
The main data structure of PyTorch. the tensor is an array. A vector is a 1-dimensional tensor, a matrix is a 2-dimensional tensor, an array with three indices is a 3-dimensional tensor (RGB color images for example)
torchvision
The torchvision package consists of popular datasets, model architectures, and common image transformations for computer vision. See https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/torchvision/index.html
Validation
the action of checking or proving the validity or accuracy of the model generated by the Artificial Intelligence
Validation Dataset
The sample of data used to provide an unbiased evaluation of a model fit on the training dataset while tuning model hyperparameters. The evaluation becomes more biased as skill on the validation dataset is incorporated into the model configuration. See https://towardsdatascience.com/train-validation-and-test-sets-72cb40cba9e7
