Good news everyone! A new version of :gt: graph-tool is just out! @graph_tool

https://graph-tool.skewed.de

:gt: @graph_tool is a comprehensive and efficient :python: Python library to work with networks, including structural, dynamical and statistical algorithms, as well as visualization.

It uses :cpp: C++ under the hood for the heavy lifting, making it quite fast.

This version includes new features, bug fixes, and improved documentation: https://graph-tool.skewed.de/static/doc/index.html

One of the new features is scalable and principled network reconstruction: https://graph-tool.skewed.de/static/doc/demos/reconstruction_indirect/reconstruction.html

Single line installation:

Anaconda ⤵️
conda create --name gt -c conda-forge graph-tool

Homebrew ⤵️
brew install graph-tool

Debian/Ubuntu ⤵️
apt-get install python3-graph-tool

Gentoo ⤵️
emerge graph-tool

Docker ⤵️
docker pull tiagopeixoto/graph-tool

You can also play it with in colab: https://colab.research.google.com/github/count0/colab-gt/blob/master/colab-gt.ipynb

Overview of Large Language Models 👇🏼

Here is a great summary or glossary doc about LLM by Aman Chadha. This long doc provides a summary of some of the main concepts related to LLM. This includes topics such as:
✅ Embeddings
✅ Vector database
✅ Prompt engineering
✅ Token
✅ RAG
✅ LLM performance evaluation
✅ Review main LLMs

I recently concluded 2 urban projects that I dreamt of doing since a long time, with 2 super talented MSc students who visited us @nerdsitu last year from Germany, Carlson @cbueth and Henrik @supergrobi.

superblockify: https://arxiv.org/abs/2404.15062
CoolWalks: https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.01225

Map with buildings and their shadows, showing 5 different colored paths through a city, going through different amounts of shade

@nerdsitu @cbueth @supergrobi Henrik studied "CoolWalks" - the potential for shaded walking, using building footprints and street networks from both synthetic and real cities. It is an intricate problem, but super important for climate adaptation, since using shadow from existing buildings is very effective but quite understudied.

I think in PowerShell and can manage in Python. I want to learn Rust to the degree I can write in it directly, rather than prototyping in PowerShell and then converting.

A lot of what I do is data manipulation and analysis. (Take several CSV files as input, and output new CSV files that answer business questions based on the inputs.) I'm seriously impressed with Rust's performance here.

If you've made this transition, advice on where to begin?

The csv crate tutorial is really great. Very detailed for beginners.

Thanks to all, who contribute to such a nice piece of work.

If you later want to open files with a nice menu, using the native file dialog from the OS, I would recommend RFD:

(1/3) New Release to NeuralForecast 🚀

Version 1.7.1 of the NeuralForecast library was released last month by Nixtla. The NeuralForecast library, as the name implies, provides a neural network framework for time series forecasting. 🧵👇🏼

@ramikrispin@mstdn.social avatar

(2/3) The release includes the support for the following new models:
✅ BiTCN - temporal convolutional networks forecasting model
✅ iTransformer - transformer-based forecasting model
✅ MLPMultivariate - an MLP model that supports multivariate tasks

In addition, the library now supports multi-node distributed training with Spark ✨ and Polars 🐻‍❄️ data frames 🚀

Request for testing/comment: can any users out there give the {styler.equals} package a spin and kick its metaphorical tires 🚲 ? Install with remotes::install_github("robinlovelace/styler.equals") and see more at https://github.com/Robinlovelace/styler.equals Especially for those who prefer typing = over <- due to laziness or any other reason! Not intending to start a flame war 🔥 arrows are great too ⬅️ Any comments/suggestions welcome 🙏

While data scientists are often taught about training an ML model, building a reliable MLOps strategy to deploy & maintain that model can be daunting.

It doesn’t have to be this way!

  1. Develop an ML model using Posit Workbench and Tidy Tuesday dataset!
  2. Version, deploy, & monitor that model w/ Posit Connect
  3. Maintain reproducible software dependencies throughout the ML lifecycle with Posit Package Manager
