Choosing the right database(RDBMS) for Data analyst?

Which database is best? The question, obviously, depends on what you want to use it for. I, like most Data analysts, want to use a database to warehouse, process, and manipulate data—and there’s no shortage of thoughtful commentary outlining the types of databases I should prefer. But these evaluations, which typically discuss databases in terms …

Auto-differentiation and Autograd explained step by step

We will understand what is automatic differentiation for absolute beginners, although this concept requires a fair amount of theoretical understanding of derivatives and the chain rule, But don’t worry I will try to explain in a very practical way, and we will build our knowledge one concept at a time and the end you will …

2 Brilliant Breakthroughs in Computational Topology Using Machine Learning

Topology is a classical branch of mathematics, born essentially from Euler’s studies in the XVII century. It deals with the abstract notion of shape and geometry. The last decades were characterized by a renewed interest in topology and topology-based tools, due to the birth of computational topology and Spatial Data Analysis (SDA). Successful applications of …

Biosim4: Framework For Evolution With Neural Networks

Biosim4 is a project in which there’s a 2-dimensional world where creatures with neural brains live in it. They have genomes (complete genetic information) that they pass on from one generation to the next generation, And these creatures have neural network brains that govern their behaviour. This project aims to try setting up the conditions …
