Feed: Featured Blog Posts - Data Science Central. Author: Lewis Wynne-Jones. Companies are champing at the bit to introduce any solution that promises Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.

Feed: R-bloggers. Author: R on Just be-cause. I’ve discussed on several blog posts how Causal Inference involves making inference about unobserved quantities and distributions (e.g. we never observe (Y|do(x))). That means we can’t benchmark different algorithms on Causal Inference tasks (e.g (ATE/CATE) estimation) the same way we do in ML because we don’t have any ground truth to benchmark against. In the absence of ground truth, one of the main tools left for model comparison and performance bench-marking is simulation studies. On a recent post I used a semi synthetic dataset to benchmark different algorithms on the task of (ATE/CATE) estimation ... Read More

The issue is pretty self-explanatory: your application/users are trying to create more connections than the server allows, or in other words, the current number of connections exceeds the value of the max_connections variable.This situation on its own is already a problem for your end-users, but when on top of that you are not able to access the server to diagnose and correct the root cause, then you have a really big problem; most times you ...

Feed: CronJ. Author: Dilip Kumar Maurya; What is the thread?Threads in Java is a lightweight subprocess, the smallest unit of processing. An instance of the thread is just an object.

Feed: Planet MySQL; Author: Vlad Mihalcea; (Last Updated On: July 23, 2019) Introduction In this article, we are going to see how we can sort an SQL query result set using an ORDER BY clause that takes a RANDOM function provided by a database-specific function. This is a very handy trick, especially when you want to shuffle a given result set. Note that sorting a large result set using a RANDOM function might turn out to be very slow, so make sure you do that on small result sets. If you have to shuffle a large result set and limit ...
