coffeetable: Feb 5, 2006; TELL ME AGAIN HOW GREAT BRITAIN WOULD BE IF IT WAS RULED BY THE MERCILESS JACKBOOT OF PRINCE CHARLES

YES I DO TALK TO PLANTS ACTUALLY

any recommendations?

if you're comfortable with basic linear algebra and vector calculus, Machine Learning: A Probabilistic Perspective.

if you're not comfortable with linear algebra or vector calculus, start with Vector and Geometric Algebra, then Vector and Geometric Calculus, then possibly Linear Algebra Done Right just to get a different perspective, then Machine Learning: A Probabilistic Perspective.

you can use machine learning libraries just fine without understanding the maths behind them, but

the moment something doesn't work you'll have no idea what to do
ML algs love their silent failures so you won't realise when something does go wrong
you'll use the one tool in the box you like to solve every problem

1) read a book on machine learning
2) look through open government databases until you get an idea

very few of those datasets have had ML techniques applied to them. very very few pairs of those datasets have had ML techniques applied to them.

oh cool, thanks for the pointer towards the databases

i think shaggar's approach is like enterprise java, where you're adding extra layers that make it easier to deal with when things get really big

there are 9 separate linq ports to java according to wikipedia

quote:

Saffron is an extension to Java incorporating SQL-like relational expressions. Relations can be in-memory collections, database tables, or other data sources. It was developed independently of LINQ in 2001 by Julian Hyde, who later authored the Mondrian OLAP server.
Quaere is a Java implementation of LINQ.
JaQue is a typesafe Java implementation of LINQ.
JaQu a Java implementation of LINQ.
jOOQ a Java implementation of LINQ.
Jinq is an open source implementation of LINQ-style queries for Java. It extends the Java 8 Streams API and sits on top of JPA. It uses a bytecode analysis framework based on symbolic execution.
Querydsl is a typesafe Java implementation of LINQ.
SBQL4J is a Java extension with capabilities of LINQ, based on Stack-Based Approach. It provides type safe queries to Java with powerful engine.
