Linear Regression, finally! For Day 11, I waited many days to present this model. It marks the beginning of a new journey in this “Advent Calendar“. Until now, we mostly looked at models based on distances, neighbors, or local density. As you may know, for tabular data, decision trees, especially ensembles of decision trees, are …

Image by Author # Introduction Are we all in a race to the bottom created by ourselves? Data professionals have been employed for years to develop large language models (LLMs). Now, the number of open data positions seems to shrink daily. Of those advertised, most seem quite abysmal. By abysmal, I don’t mean too-low salaries …

space as the next place to discover, but hardly ever as the next place to connect with people. Even though rockets are going farther than ever, the gap in access to technology is still very significant here on Earth. In fact, the International Telecommunication Union states that there are still over two billion people without …

Scientists are using AlphaFold in their research to strengthen an enzyme that’s vital to photosynthesis, paving the way for more heat-tolerant crops. As global warming accompanies more droughts and heatwaves, harvests of some staple crops are shrinking. But less visible is what is happening inside these plants, where high heat can break down the molecular …

I vibe-coding to create websites and IOS apps. I already have two apps live on the App Store. My first app was Brush Tracker, which helps you track your daily brushing habits, stay consistent, and keep your teeth clean through small motivational nudges. I also wrote an article on the entire process of building the …

Increasing speed of discovery Cyril Zipfel, professor of Molecular & Cellular Plant Physiology at the University of Zurich and Sainsbury Lab, saw research timelines shrink drastically. They used AlphaFold alongside comparative genomics to better understand how plants perceive changes in their environment, paving the way for more resilient crops. AlphaFold has been cited in more …
the k-NN Regressor and the idea of prediction based on distance, we now look at the k-NN Classifier. The principle is the same, but classification allows us to introduce several useful variants, such as Radius Nearest Neighbors, Nearest Centroid, multi-class prediction, and probabilistic distance models. So we will first implement the k-NN classifier, then discuss …
