PAMIR - Passive-Aggresive Model for Image Retrieval


PAMIR is a machine learning algorithm to learn a ranking function, i.e. a function which orders documents given a query. It has been primarily designed for multimodal retrieval, such as the retrieval of images from text queries. Its main advantages are scalability (it relies on online learning, which allows training from large datasets) and discriminative training (its training procedure optimizes a loss related to the final retrieval quality). Pamir is also a mountain range in Central Asia, but that's a different story...

iPad creation

Programming is one of the most creative things you can do with a computer, and the iPad could potentially be a powerful tool to introduce this form of creativity to many people, particularly children.

Currently there is no way for people to use the iPad to make programs. Furthermore, the touchscreen interface already doesn't seem ideal for traditional coding, and there's no easy way to look under the hood of an iPad to understand how to create software.

Without a proficient programming environment readily accessible on the iPad, Apple's tablet paints a bleak portrait for the future of programming.

'I think the iPad generation is going to miss out on software programming,' said Oliver Cameron, developer of the Friends iPhone app. 'Kids don't need Macs anymore.'


It doesn't help that Apple enforces strict rules around how iOS apps must be programmed, which occasionally results in some collateral damage.

Take for example Apple's rejection of Scratch early last year. Scratch for iPhone was an app for kids to view programs coded with MIT's Scratch programming platform.





team




A tale of two programmers

Steve and Chris were as unalike as I've ever seen. Steve would toss out reams of code, sometimes creating the skeleton of a game in a few manic nights of coding and then he'd run out of steam to become slow as molasses. At roughly this point in time, Chris would enter the picture. He'd take the pile of work that Steve had done, and bit by bit, he'd clean it up and make it reliable and efficient. They knew each other so well that they didn't actually discuss the code much, it just got passed back and forth in this fashion until the job was done, usually in record time.

Their secret was obviously their complimentary characters and the fact that they'd grown up together, and had gotten to rely on the other guy 'having your back', as opposed to spending endless hours on transferring the knowledge Chris had been through this so many times that he knew quite well what to expect.

Today we'd probably call this 'pair programming', but it was pair programming in a way that was far more than the sum of its parts. Chris wouldn't be able to come up with an original work if his life depended on it. Steve would not be able to finish a job if you threatened to fire him. But as a team, they worked out splendid. They typically had their releases based on the same storyboards ready before we'd had the skeleton fleshed out.

d3.js




d3.js



D3 allows you to bind arbitrary data to a Document Object Model (DOM), and then apply data-driven transformations to the document. As a trivial example, you can use D3 to generate a basic HTML table from an array of numbers. Or, use the same data to create an interactive SVG bar chart with smooth transitions and interaction.

D3 is not a traditional visualization framework. Rather than provide a monolithic system with all the features anyone may ever need, D3 solves only the crux of the problem: efficient manipulation of documents based on data. This gives D3 extraordinary flexibility, exposing the full capabilities of underlying technologies such as CSS3, HTML5 and SVG. It avoids learning a new intermediate proprietary representation. With minimal overhead, D3 is extremely fast, supporting large datasets and dynamic behaviors for interaction and animation. And, for those common needs, D3?s functional style allows code reuse through a diverse collection of optional modules.





processing.js




Processing.js



Processing.js is the sister project of the popular Processing visual programming language, designed for the web. Processing.js makes your data visualizations, digital art, interactive animations, educational graphs, video games, etc. work using web standards and without any plug-ins. You write code using the Processing language, include it in your web page, and Processing.js does the rest. It's not magic, but almost.



protovis




protovis




Protovis composes custom views of data with simple marks such as bars and dots. Unlike low-level graphics libraries that quickly become tedious for visualization, Protovis defines marks through dynamic properties that encode data, allowing inheritance, scales and layouts to simplify construction.

Protovis is free and open-source, provided under the BSD License. It uses JavaScript and SVG for web-native visualizations; no plugin required (though you will need a modern web browser)! Although programming experience is helpful, Protovis is mostly declarative and designed to be learned by example.

The If Works - Translation from Haskell to JavaScript of selected portions of the best introduction to monads I’ve ever read

The If Works - Translation from Haskell to JavaScript of selected portions of the best introduction to monads I’ve ever read: "First up, a little back story. Monads are more prevalent in Haskell because it only allows pure functions, that is functions that do not have side effects. Pure functions accept input as arguments and emit output as return values, and that’s it. The languages I typically use (Ruby and JavaScript) do not have this constraint, but it often turns out to be a useful discipline to enforce yourself. The typical monad introduction will tell you that monads are all about sneaking side effects into this model so you can do I/O, but that’s just one application. Monads are really about composing functions, as we’ll see."

Launch Early and Iterate

Launch Early and Iterate: "“Launch early and iterate” is a popular saying at Google which the Chrome’s launch didn’t fail to follow. “We hit 'send' a bit early on a comic book introducing our new open source browser, Google Chrome,” said the Google people on the browser’s release. Ever since the “send” button was hit, Chrome has elbowed its way into the browsing arena which had long been dominated by Microsoft’s Internet Explorer having lately been joined by Mozilla’s Firefox. Given Google’s reputation as the most powerful search engine, spreading the word about the search giant’s upcoming browser came as a breeze. People having waited excitedly for the browser didn’t take long to switch to Google Chrome. And luckily for Google, they were not disappointed."

TechCredo | How to fix download & installation unsuccessful Android Market issues

TechCredo | How to fix download & installation unsuccessful Android Market issues: "Why the .android_secure folder might be to blame

Two common Android error messages that have managed to drive many increasingly frustrated users loco are “download unsuccessful” and “installation unsuccessful” when trying to download apps from the Market.

These Market issues are even worse than the familiar “phone storage is getting low” message, since there is no obvious way to solve the problem. The Market errors are especially common on phones running Android 2.2 Froyo or above, and for people who use the setInstallLocation 2 trick, or A2SD+ that lets all apps be installed to a partition on the SD card."

Vivek Haldar : The Cognitive Style of Unix

Vivek Haldar : The Cognitive Style of Unix: "He frames the issue in terms of internalization vs externalization. Some software tries to be “easy-to-use” by externalizing rules and knowledge into the interface, so that the user does not have to think and can merely follow the cues. An example is inactivating parts of the interface that are not relevant or allowed in a particular context. Software that does not externalize such rules and knowledge relies instead on the user internalizing those, and mindfully coming up with plans to solve the problem at hand."

About South — South v0.7 documentation

About South — South v0.7 documentation: "South brings migrations to Django applications. Its main objectives are to provide a simple, stable and database-independent migration layer to prevent all the hassle schema changes over time bring to your Django applications.

We try to make South both as easy-to-use and intuitive as possible, by making it automate most of your schema-changing tasks, while at the same time providing a powerful set of tools for large or complex projects; you can easily write your own migrations by hand, or even use the database altering API directly.

While South started as a relative unknown in the Django database-schema-altering world, it has slowly risen in popularity and is now widely regarded as the most popular schema migration tool for Django."

Frodo, the LOTR - Browse Files at SourceForge.net

Frodo, the LOTR - Browse Files at SourceForge.net: "Frodo is a Line-Oriented Text Rewriter, a tool for scripting bulk
rewrites of line-oriented text data. It can be used for reformatting
data, or for other editing tasks more challenging than
global-search-and-replace.

The easiest way to explain is just to give some examples. Suppose
you have a data file that looks like this:

last='Ambrose' first='Alice' bdate='1885-04-22'
last='Baldwin' first='Bernard' bdate='1887-09-13'
last='Corbin' first='Charles' bdate='1879-11-03'
last='Dalton' first='Dennis' bdate='1881-01-07'

That's nice and all, but it would be more convenient if it were in
CSV format, with maybe a header that gave names to the column. This
is a perfect job for Frodo. Try this script on it.

insert 'LAST,FIRST,BDATE'
while (
replace /last='(.*)' first='(.*)' bdate='(.*)'/ |{1},{2},{3}|
next
)

You'll get something that looks like this.

The objects are indexed based on a “key” or an “index” property of the object. The API also allows for iterating over the objects. Hence, IndexedDB is not really relational in the sense of a traditional database; relationships between different object stores are not explicit. The storage is also subject to the same origin policy."

Part of this API — navigating the history — has been available in previous versions of HTML. The new parts in HTML5 include a way to add entries to the browser history, to visibly change the URL in the browser location bar (without triggering a page refresh), and an event that fires when those entries are removed from the stack by the user pressing the browser’s back button. This means that the URL in the browser location bar can continue to do its job as a unique identifier for the current resource, even in script-heavy applications that don’t ever perform a full page refresh."

Spacewar! - Original 1962 code on PDP-1 emulator

Spacewar! - Original 1962 code on PDP-1 emulator

"In 1997 we posted a playable version of the Spacewar!, the first graphical computer game. Spacewar! was written by Russell et al at MIT in the early '60s. We did not re-implement the game. Rather, we found the original source code, rebuilt it to get an authentic binary and ran it on a PDP-1 emulator that we wrote in Java. We chose Java to implement the PDP-1 because we believed at the time — correctly as it turned out — that a Java version would survive the browser wars. Also, it would not require any effort to keep it running on all platforms well past the turn of the millennium, and through the traffic peaks of Spacewar's 40th and 45th birthday. It's now getting close to 15 years later. We would not want to bet that in another 15 years a Java program will still run on the latest popular platforms. As a hedge to the future, and in an effort to continue the preservation of this significant digital artifact, we've now ported the PDP-1 emulator to Javascript/HTML5. This should see the game through Spacewar!'s 50th (and hopefully 60th) birthday. Expect another update around 2025."

Matt Blaze: Shaking Down Science: "Fortunately, these copyrights have been honored mostly in the breach as far as author-based web publishing has been concerned. Many academics make their papers available on their personal web sites, a practice that a growing number of university libraries, including my own, have begun to formalize by hosting institution-wide web repositories of faculty papers. This practice has flourished largely through a liberal reading of a provision -- a loophole -- in many copyright agreements that allows authors to share 'preprint' versions of their papers."
