Machine-learning models can fail when they try to make predictions for individuals who were underrepresented in the datasets they were trained on.For instance, a model that predicts the best treatment option for someone with a chronic disease may be trained using a dataset that contains mostly male patients. That model might make incorrect predictions for female patients when deployed in a hospital.To improve outcomes, engineers can try balancing the training dataset by removing data points until all subgroups are represented equally. While dataset balancing is promising, it often requires removing large amount of data, hurting the model’s overall performance.MIT researchers…

Gasoline detergents: What are they and what do they do? | Fuel Tips | Articles | Grassroots Motorsports The inside of your engine can become a dirty, nasty place, and those carbon deposits don’t do anything to help performance.

Either way, when these hydrocarbons get hot, instead of simply burning, they can form carbon deposits via the coking process. Always using a Top Tier gas,…
