[Links of the Day] 14/04/2020 : Time series dynamical attractors Autoencoder , Binarized Neural Network framework, Machine learning and Databases

  • Deep learning of dynamical attractors from time series measurements : the authors propose a general embedding technique for time series, consisting of an autoencoder trained with a novel latent-space loss function. Worth giving it a look if you deal with time series.
  • larq : open-source Python library for training neural networks with extremely low-precision weights and activations, such as Binarized Neural Networks. Basically, this framework is aiming at embedded / FPGA / ASIC machine learning models deployment. A fantastic resource and great model zoo on top of that.
  • Cloudy with a chance of DBMS : Databases are going to embedded more and more machine learning solution. Big query from Google already does that. But it's just a question of time for most mainstream DB to offer ML service.

[Links of the Day] 09/04/2020 : TRAX deep Learning library, The next decade in AI, 1:1 questions

  • The Next Decade in AI : Paper by Gary Marcus where he explores the possible future of AI over the next decade
  • 1 on 1 meeting questions : a collection of 1:1 questions, great list that can help any manager pick the right question for the right context. As long as you are able to read the room/ team/ person.
  • Trax: advanced google deep learning library built on top of JAX. It is actively used by the DeepMind team and aiming code clear while providing advanced models like Reformer.

[Links of the Day] 07/04/2020 : Incentivizing Innovation, Network Performance analysis, Neural Networks for embedded systems

  • The Effects of Prize Structures on Innovative Performance : how to incentivize innovation? Well, the authors found that a winner-takes-all compensation scheme generates significantly more novel innovation relative to a compensation scheme that offers the same total compensation, but shared across the ten best innovations. However, like every psychological paper, you have to take it with a grain of salt.. reproducibility is always difficult.
  • nfstream : Python package providing fast, flexible, and expressive data structures designed to make working with online or offline network data [github]
  • Neural Networks on embedded systems : a good overview of the challenges and available neural network architectures for running on embedded systems.

[Links of the Day] 02/04/2020 : Grep all, HealthCare mobile data collection for machine learning, FastAI framework

  • ripgrep : grep search in PDFs, E-Books, Office documents, zip, tar.gz, etc.
  • pymedserver : a server framework for mobile data collection and machine learning in healthcare
  • fastai : fantastic machine learning library trying to abstract away a lot of PyTorch into simple API and building blocks. Sometimes it attracts a bit too much, especially with you want to get murky with some details. But all in all, fastAI is really a framework you want to look at if you are doing machine learning.

[Links of the Day] 31/03/2020 : Quantum Computing course, Risk quantifying library, Google time windowed availability metric


  • Meaningful Availability : google folks propose a different interpretation of availability in this paper. The authors propose a new metric called "windowed user-uptime".  The objective of this metric is to measure user perceived uptime combined with calculating the availability over many windows in order to identify transient vs long periods unavailability. 
  • riskquant :  Netflix Python library for quantifying risk 
  • Quantum Computation Course : approachable quantum computation course.

[Links of the Day] 26/03/2020 : Golang distributed in memory key value store, Datasciences github repo trove, Developer Road-maps

  • olric : Distributed cache and in-memory key/value data store. This can be embedded as a go library.
  • Pilsung Kang : a lot of really cool git repository for machine learning and datascience lecture , notes, code etc.. by Pilsing Kang of the School of Industrial Management Engineering Korea University.
  • Developer Roadmaps : Step by step guides and paths to learn different tools or technologies, checkout the devops one .. you probably need two lifetime to cover everything.

[Links of the Day] 24/03/2020 : Machine learning visualisation, debugging and project template

  • hiplot : Facebook lightweight interactive visualization toolkit, quite useful for discovering correlations and patterns in high dimensional data.
  • manifold : Machine learning Visual debugging tooling bu Uber [github]
  • cookie cutter Data Science : love cookie-cutter, and this is a great one for Machine learning projects
