Um site com visão da microsoft para o data mining

Welcome to SQLServerDataMining.com

This site has been designed by the SQL Server Data Mining team to provide the SQL Server community with access to and information about our in-database data mining and analytics features.  SQL Server 2000 was the first major database release to put analytics in the database.  Catch up with the latest SQL Server Data Mining news in our newsletter.

SQL Server 2012 SP1 Data Mining Add-ins for Office (with 32-bit or 64-bit Support)

The Data Mining Add-ins allow you to harness the power of SQL Server 2012 predictive analytics in Excel and Visio and they have been updated to include 32-bit or 64-bit support for Office 2010 or Office 2013. Use Table Analysis Tools to get insight with a couple of clicks. Use the Data Mining tab for full-lifecycle data mining, and build models which can be exported to a production server.  Visualize your models in Visio.

An Introduction to Word Embeddings

bom texto sobre uma técnica em NLP – Natural Language Pocessing

Part 1: Applications

Written by Aaron Geelon So

If you already have a solid understanding of word embeddings and are well into your data science career, skip ahead to the next part!

Human language is unreasonably effective at describing how we relate to the world. With a few, short words, we can convey many ideas and actions with little ambiguity. Well, mostly.

Because we’re capable of seeing and describing so much complexity, a lot of structure is implicitly encoded into our language. It is no easy task for a computer (or a human, for that matter) to learn natural language, for it entails understanding how we humans observe the world, if not understanding how to observe the world.

For the most part, computers can’t understand natural language. Our programs are still line-by-line instructions telling a computer what to do — they often miss nuance and context. How can you explain sarcasm to a machine?

There’s good news though. There’s been some important breakthroughs in natural language processing (NLP), the domain where researchers try to teach computers human language.

Uma boa introdução ao tensor flow e deep learning

Introduction

If you have been following Data Science / Machine Learning, you just can’t miss the buzz around Deep Learning and Neural Networks. Organizations are looking for people with Deep Learning skills wherever they can. From running competitions to open sourcing projects and paying big bonuses, people are trying every possible thing to tap into this limited pool of talent. Self driving engineers are being hunted by the big guns in automobile industry, as the industry stands on the brink of biggest disruption it faced in last few decades!

If you are excited by the prospects deep learning has to offer, but have not started your journey yet – I am here to enable it. Starting with this article, I will write a series of articles on deep learning covering the popular Deep Learning libraries and their hands-on implementation.

In this article, I will introduce TensorFlow to you. After reading this article you will be able to understand application of neural networks and use TensorFlow to solve a real life problem. This article will require you to know the basics of neural networks and have familiarity with programming. Although the code in this article is in python, I have focused on the concepts and stayed as language-agnostic as possible.

Let’s get started!

Table of Contents

  • When to apply neural nets?
  • General way to solve problems with Neural Networks
  • Understanding Image data and popular libraries to solve it
  • What is TensorFlow?
  • A typical “flow” of TensorFlow
  • Implementing MLP in TensorFlow
  • Limitations of TensorFlow
  • TensorFlow vs. other libraries
  • Where to go from here?

Boa fonte de novos nós do KNIME, evitando q estejamos a programar algo q já foi programado antes.

KNIME Community Contributions offer a wide range of KNIME nodes from different application areas, such as chemo- and bioinformatics, image processing, or information retrieval. In contrast to the extensions available via the standard KNIME Update Site they are provided and maintained by various community developers.

The Trusted Community Contributions can easily be installed by selecting File -> Install KNIME Extensions in KNIME. Additional extensions are available by enabling the Update Site in KNIME via File -> Preferences -> Install/Update -> Available Update Sites. See the update site guide for details.

You can also download the whole update site as a ZIP archive and add the ZIP to the Available Update Sites (see above).

History through the president’s words

History through the president’s words

By Kennedy Elliott, Richard Johnson and Ted Mellnik, Published: Jan. 28, 2014

Since 1900, there have been 116 State of the Union addresses, given by 20 presidents, with some presidents giving two addresses a year. Studying their choice of words, over time, provides glimpses of change in American politics—“communism” fades, “terrorism” increases—and evidence that some things never change (“America” comes up steadily, of course. As does “I.”). Wayne Fields, a professor of English and American Culture Studies at Washington University in St. Louis, and Mark Liberman, a linguist at the University of Pennsylvania, offered their analysis of the meaning behind the words the presidents used.

Uso de algorimtos de visinho mais próximo para visualizar semelhanças

Uso de algorimtos de visinho mais próximo para visualizar semelhanças

North Carolina State statistics graduate student Joshua Katz already mapped dialect across the United States, and now there’s a fun addition in quiz form. Answer the 25-question survey (or the more detailed 140-question version if you dare), and you get a map of language similarity. More specifically, the result maps shows the probability that someone in that area understands what you’re saying.
