I've used Elasticsearch + Kibana for agricultural data and similarly "expanded" the view out from averages to time series. People in agriculture love averages and it makes a lot of sense in financial data since averages prese

Are users here who use others browsers than Firefox? For example, if you are browsing the web without looking at pictures, I sometimes find Lynx useful to filter out the clutter.

It could be form over function. But my issue is that we have terrible power supply and no-one can fix the problem for themselves using solar. People here just get noisy generators that only provide partial power anyway. A solar roof would a

My recommendation would be to pick a topic that you want to understand better, then I could offer to point you to that topic in a way that stems from my own work / my training set for maths.

This may be true. But I use wikipedia for mathematics and then things like geography and history. For the former, it works very well. For the latter two it seems like it's not too bad.

I am not saying Tesla is the company that should provide this, but at least Tesla generates headlines. We would need a modular approach, whether on a household level or on a regional level. The utility is not going to provide it and existin

Now that you mention it, I remember reading about the crazy amount of data that CERN generates. The crazy part is that they can't (no-one can or would want to try) store something like 95% of their data and have to run algorithms in re

This is, I think, another example where one may consider to discard factor 1 and to look only at factor 2 and 3. (Of course, a better approach if possible would be baseline normalisation.)

Cool advice, for me the analogue would be Raspberry Pi's. And indeed, I find it a great way of understanding most parts of the system.

The word "deep" is being used in social contexts more often after the advent of "deep learning".

For example, I've had an example where factor 1 would classify low resolution parameters and factor 2 and further are the only factors of relevance. When one examined the data, some parameters were in 40 square kilometer boxes and othe

This distance that you speak of falls under my use of the word "classify" which now in retrospect is a poor choice of word. However, as explained by another comment, it does not always become "meaningless". In fact, it b

By way of example, suppose you have a weather dataset with 30 parameters such as temperature, cloud cover, solar radiation, etc. Your objective is to classify points on a map that have similar weather conditions. You can do PCA on these geo
