The OSGi specifications originally targeted embedded devices and home services gateways, but they are ideally suited for any project interested in the principles of modularity, component-orientation, and/or service-orientation. OSGi technology combines aspects of these aforementioned principles to define a dynamic service deployment framework that is amenable to remote management." meta="925c62cfe86447fdaa1721d30e24c8ad" />

Each time a jar is copied in this folder, it will be installed inside the runtime. You can then update or delete it and changes will be handled automatically. In addition, the Karaf also supports exploded bundles and custom deployers (blueprint and spring ones are included by default).

* Dynamic configuration: Services are usually configured through the ConfigurationAdmin OSGi service. Such configuration can be defined in Karaf using property files inside the [home]/etc directory.

The example has several attributes and belongs to a class (like yes or no). The leaf nodes of the decision tree contain the class name whereas a non-leaf node is a decision node. The decision node is an attribute test with each branch (to another decision tree) being a possible value of the attribute. ID3 uses information gain to help it decide which attribute goes into a decision node. The advantage of learning a decision tree is that a program, rather than a knowledge engineer, elicits knowledge from an expert." meta="4e0a22360414f56b00c205c24e4299b0" />

In this context, query processing is a big challenge and becomes crucial. The Apache Hadoop project has been adopted by many famous companies to query their Petabytes of information. Some examples of such enterprises are Yahoo! and Facebook. Recently, some researchers from the database community indicated that Hadoop may suffer from performance issues when running analytical queries. We believe this is not an inherent problem of the MapReduce paradigm but rather some implementation choices done in Hadoop. Therefore, the overall goal of Hadoop++ project is to improve Hadoop&#039;s performance for analytical queries. Already, our preliminary results show an improvement of Hadoop++ over Hadoop by up to a factor 20. In addition, we are currently investigating the impact of a number of other optimizations techniques." meta="94331f7cf1db2aff59b94985a5045dbb" />

That is to say, when characterizing some unknown events with a statistical model, we should always choose the one that has Maximum Entropy.

Maximum Entropy Modeling has been successfully applied to Computer Vision, Spatial Physics, Natural Language Processing and many other fields. This page will focus on applying Maxent to Natural Language Processing (NLP)." meta="42b5a0c7937664a1a7496c10fc9712a7" />

The basic problem is to determine the category or categories that a given (test) document belongs to using classifiers trained on the set of training documents (docs for short). We sometimes refer to a set of docs as a corpus (e.g. training corpus). In many of the learning algorithms we will deal with, we train a binary classifier for each category separately in order to simplify things, so that if there are m categories, we will train m classifiers, one for each category. Given a test document, each classifier determines whether or not the document belongs to its category, independent of other classifiers. An exception to this includes the nearest neighbor classifier, where there is no real classifier per category, and the votes of the nearest neighbor training docs determine the final category or categories of the test document." meta="7cf450ff7771e86f083c5561b5445922" />

One complication we encountered was that the instances where located in different EC2 regions (EU, US and soon, a possible second US region). Each Amazon region has it’s own private class A ip range, to which the instances are NAT’d, with public class B’s. In essence, for a box in the US to talk to a box in the EU, it would have to use the Public IP assigned by Amazon (and vice versa), but to talk to another box in it’s own region it would need the Private IP. We had to come up with a scheme to make this work." meta="3675af4e8363250a00acc85d2c530d9c" />

In this howto, I’ll show you how to use an encryption key on a USB stick and a password to encrypt an Ubuntu Lucid Lynx installation. Why a key on a USB stick you ask? To provide two factors of authentication. Your key and your password. If you keep your USB stick on your person (for example on a keyring), if your laptop is compromised it will be cryptographically impossible to unlock it with a password only.

Another more “creative” feature of this system is that it allows a person to destroy information in an instant. Destroy the USB key and all is lost. For this reason, I highly recommend backing up your USB key!" meta="af9b1f8dfffc26e108ae0ef77e25dc90" />

Take, for example, a person looking to buy a used car.

And Cascading is built on top of Hadoop, the leading open source MapReduce framework.

This means that Bixo will scale out to many servers, with little or no extra effort. You can run Bixo on your laptop, and you can run Bixo on a cluster of 100 servers, depending on your needs.

And it also means that Bixo runs well in Amazon’s Elastic Computer Cloud (EC2). With a few commands you can create a Bixo cluster, fetch and process the target web pages, save the results, and dispose of the cluster – without buying, provisioning or maintaining any hardware.

This next section will provide step-by-step instructions for running Bixo in EC2.

WARNING: Information about configuring EC2 on the Hadoop and AWS sites will be different than what’s described below. Please follow these steps, which leverage as much as possible the automation available via modified versions of Hadoop Bash scripts." meta="c59c88a55934af255812e313b54e066e" />

with time-series data is to find all sequences which are similar to a given sequence. The most

common technique for evaluating similarity between two sequences involves calculating the

Euclidean distance between them. However, many examples can be given where two similar

sequences are separated by a large Euclidean distance. In this paper, instead of calculating the

Euclidean distance directly between two sequences, the sequences are transformed into a feature

vector and the Euclidean distance between the feature vectors is then calculated. Results show

that this approach is superior for finding similar sequences." meta="1b2702df012d25e46e9dd4e00450995b" />

Comparing Document-oriented Databases

Power laws also describe other kinds of relationships, such as the metabolic rate of a species and its body mass (called Kleiber&#039;s law), and the size of a city and the number of patents it produces. What this relationship means is that there is no typical size in the conventional sense.

This technology has been around for a while now and having access to it in Flash is really exciting. Although it is still in its infancy, over time the speed and power of AR will improve to hopefully play an important role in how we view the web.

[..] The numerator and denominator normally consist of a Fibonacci number and its second successor. The number of leaves is sometimes called rank, in the case of simple Fibonacci ratios, because the leaves line up in vertical rows. With larger Fibonacci pairs, the pattern becomes complex and non-repeating. This tends to occur with a basal configuration. Examples can be found in composite flowers and seed heads. The most famous example is the sunflower head. This phyllotactic pattern creates an optical illusion of criss-crossing spirals. In the botanical literature, these designs are described by the number of counter-clockwise spirals and the number of clockwise spirals. These also turn out to be Fibonacci numbers. In some cases, the numbers appear to be multiples of Fibonacci numbers because the spirals consist of whorls." meta="a3ec2979ffbf8a03b6fb93daa3865f39" />

first component is a 2D vector that reflects a distance range (minimum and maximum values) of the f features with respect to a

reference point (the center of the space) in a metric space and the second component is a bit signature, with two bits per dimension,

obtained by analyzing each feature’s descending energy histogram." meta="923eb80c7af10d582a67e98399b4ec7d" />

The most likely things that we might want to vary directly from a microcontroller are lights, sound devices, or things controlled by motors and other mechanical transducers (a mechanical transducer is something that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy — motors are the most common example). For the most part, there will be some other component in between the microcontroller and the final output device.
