In this third post in a three-part series, shows how the Microsoft Data Science Virtual Machine can be used to train state-of-the-art neural networks on large (1.2+ million) image datasets.

Guess who maintains the most packages on CRAN?

Platform for AI is a cluster management tool and resource scheduling platform.

Microsoft Graph Engine is a distributed in-memory data processing engine, underpinned by a strongly-typed in-memory key-value store and a general distributed computation engine.

This repository provides code for SVD and Importance sampling-based algorithms for large scale topic modeling.

Overview and examples of the Microsoft AI and Data Science Platform with an introduction to technologies in Cognitive Services, Bot Framework and Machine Learning. It also outlines how development in this area can be managed though the Team Data Science Process, and we will explore that professional roles that can ensure the delivery of these types of solutions today whether you are a developer, or a data scientist.

This episode of the AI Show is the third in a series talking about the Azure ML Services. The new Azure Machine Learning Services provide an integrated, end-to-end data science experience. It enables

The last installment of a deep dive into the internals of Microsoft SQL Server R Services by Niels Berglund. We are given the lowdown of sp_execute_external_script and the @parallel and @r_rowsPerRead parameters, the SQL Server compute context, using Process Monitor and Process Explorer.

“An exploration of how insights from computer algorithms can be applied to our everyday lives, helping to solve common decision-making problems and illuminate the workings of the human mind.”

The City of Melbourne has collected data on the more than 70,000 trees in the urban forest of this Australian metropolis. The data include the species, the health status of the tree and its life expectancy, all shown on a lovely map. Each tree also has a unique email address. The idea is that citizens can report problems with trees, like disease or a fallen limb.
