I'm working on a few projects.
Firstly, I've developed a suite of Python libraries to deal with NFL data, including play-by-play statistics and slicing game footage into its play-by-play components. A demo of my work is here: http://demo.nflfan.burntsushi.net/?week=5 http://demo.nflfan.burntsushi.net/?week=5 (excuse the slowness, my web server is crappy)
Everything is on GitHub: https://github.com/BurntSushi/{nflgame,nfldb,nflvid,nflfan} https://github.com/BurntSushi/{nflgame,nfldb,nflvid,nflfan}
Secondly, I'm also working on a small utility to produce Entity-Relationship diagrams from a simple text description. Surprisingly, there were very few tools that could do this. It's written in Haskell. Current progress here: https://github.com/BurntSushi/erd https://github.com/BurntSushi/erd
Thirdly, my PhD research involves finding proteins that are similar to other proteins. Most of the infrastructure is written in Go: https://github.com/TuftsBCB https://github.com/TuftsBCB
- creativeone 13y agoVery impressed with your NFL data tool, check out this company, they may be interested in your technology: http://www.hudl.com/ http://www.hudl.com/
- mercuryrising 13y agoHey thanks for NFLgame! I've been using it to make a stat tracker to watch live feeds of Sunday's action.
- knes 13y agoawesome work, keep up the good work!
- minouye 13y agoGreat stuff! Where do you get the game footage from?
- burntsushi 13y agoHere's a rough breakdown: https://github.com/BurntSushi/nflvid/blob/master/notes https://github.com/BurntSushi/nflvid/blob/master/notes Any gaps should be easily filled by looking at the source of nflvid. It's pretty small and should be fairly straight-forward (even if you don't know Python). TL;DR - NFL's content delivery network (Neulion) hosts the game footage and it is publicly accessible.
- x0xMaximus 13y agoVery cool to hear about the Entity-Relationship diagram project. I'm working on something similar myself, an entity annotation and relationship builder app to annotate biomedical texts: http://mark2cure.org/ http://mark2cure.org/
- burntsushi 13y ago> Very cool to hear about the Entity-Relationship diagram project. Yeah, it's kind of unbelievable at how rare they are. There are lots of GUI tools, or tools specific to a particular database system, but few that accept plain text as input. (There is erwiz, but it's unmaintained and a giant mess of Java code.) > I'm working on something similar myself, an entity annotation and relationship builder app to annotate biomedical texts: http://mark2cure.org/ http://mark2cure.org/ That is so awesome. I can't wait to see it in action! I've added my email to your list. :-)
