[Links of the Day] 19/05/2020 : Fat Tails, AutoML Zero , Version Control for GIS

• Statistical Consequences of Fat Tails : Nassim Nicholas Taleb book investigates the misapplication of conventional statistical techniques to fat-tailed distributions and looks for remedies
• AutoML Zero : aims to automatically discover computer programs that can solve machine learning tasks, starting from empty or random programs and using only basic math operations. The goal is to simultaneously search for all aspects of an ML algorithm—including the model structure and the learning strategy—while employing minimal human bias.
• Sno : Distributed version-control for geospatial and tabular data

Links of the day 13 - 03 - 2015

Today's links 13/03/2015: machine learning , Time-Series and Geospatial database, Write acceleration for virtual environment

• Clustered Fault Tolerant Write Acceleration in a Virtualized Environment : PernixData present a fault tolerant host-side flash write acceleration layer that seamlessly integrates with the virtualized environment while preserving dynamic resource management and high availability
• Machine Learning for Programming : Peter Norvig keynotes on using machine learning techniques to solve more general software problems, helping both the advanced programmer and the novice one.
• Time-Series Database Requirements : the author present its own ideas about what constitutes a good time-series database
• Why Are Geospatial Databases So Hard To Build? : the root of the problem is that the internals of a database engine designed for traditional “text and numbers” data models, which is virtually all of them, has very little in common with a database engine designed for real-time spatial data models.
