Artificial Intelligence, machine learning and deep learning


Today’s post contains resources on the topics of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and deep learning.  These topics may be of interest because they are increasingly present in data science and are the basis of many of the technologies which are being used in precision agriculture.
As with the previous list of courses and videos, this is a list of suggestions rather than an exhaustive list of recommended classes.   You may wish to search around on any of the listed platforms for courses best suited to your preferences, interests and learning needs.
Regarding the Coursera platform, I avoided including “premium content” in this list.  “Premium content” are those courses for which a “7 day preview” is offered instead of the free “audit” option.  If you prefer premium content, the search engine built into Coursera can be useful in finding these classes.  Please let me know if you require assistance in locating the search engine and/or the classes you prefer.
 If you require information regarding how to get access to LinkedIn Learning videos, I recommend that you refer to the previous post https://donnaefrederick.blogspot.com/2020/03/leadership-videos-on-linkedin-learning.html.  Even if you don’t have a LinkedIn Learning account via AAFC, you may be able to watch may of the videos through a public library or U of S Learning account.

Metadata Update #20: April 2014 RDA updates

This blog post was originally intended to be posted in June 2014: I’ve finally gotten around to completing my reading about the April 2014 changes to RDA.   As is the case with reading the details of any descriptive cataloging standard, it’s enough to either give you a headache or put you to sleep if you try to focus on too much of the detail at once. I do have a few comments to make about this update.   First of all, many of the changes are, in my mind, just clarification of the points which help to bring metadata creation away from the world of trying to fit as much information as possible onto a little index card and into a complex international information environment.   For example, it is reinforced that for serials you don’t assume that users understand that “v.” stands for volume.   Instead, volume should be spelled out as such as should issue.   This does make sense in an international, multicultural and multi-generational environment.   Certainly, for many users “v”

Metadata Update #24 : Metadata as part of the user experience

Sometimes I find a blog post that puts into words the sorts of things that I have been trying to find a way to state for myself.  Erin Leach has written a blog post called "On metadata and user experience " which gets to the heart of many things that I have been thinking about lately: http://unifiedlibraryscene.blogspot.ca/2015/03/on-metadata-and-user-experience.html Sometimes in libraries we worry about what our discovery interfaces look like, the sorts of experiences our patrons have using them and whether the colours are attractive or not but forget about the metadata and the metadata quality which are often critical in determining whether or not patrons can find resources in the collection. I certainly have heard librarians, who work outside of cataloguing and metadata, say that they think that the new discovery layers can somehow magically "fix" problems with metadata.  There seems to be a belief that technology magically repairs records and
