PREDICTING CRITICS AND AUDIENCE SCORES FOR MOVIES

Hello, welcome to my blog. I know it’s been long since my last post – I apologize for that. I have been quite busy for the past few weeks with some projects and I have not had any time to write. One of the things that has kept me busy is some of the courses I have been taking on Coursera – particularly the Statistics with R specialization. In this post, I will present the project I did for one of the courses of this specialization.

AD OR NON-AD?

Hello, welcome to my blog. Apologies for the delay in writing this post, I have been a little preoccupied lately. Thankfully I am able to create time to write this post. In this post, I am going to address the problem of distinguishing images that are ads from non-ads. Concretely, given an image the goal is to determine if it’s an advertisement (“ad”) or not an advertisement (“non-ad”). I am going to use the R programming language for this demonstration.
