I am happy to share some recent performance results of a new parser for Wikipedia data dumps that I have developed over the past 2 months.

The new parser is also written in Python, as it was its predecessor included in WikiXRay. However, this new parser comes with notable improvements in speed and accuracy:

Polynomial Regression is a form of linear regression model but fits a non-linear relationship between the value X and Y. Basically we have to add new features to the final equation. But what features? It’s simple we can add the X1 feature as new feature: X1^2 or X1^3. If we have some input features (X1,X2,X3) also we can add new features as X1*X2 or X1^2*X3^2. So, the polynomial regression model is:

I continue working with machine learning algorithms. In a previous post I talked about linear regression with one variable and I described different algorithms to predict hypothesis.

Since two months ago I’m researching about machine learning and its algorithms. The goal is get a good unsupervised and clustering algorithm to analyze every android applications and predict what application you want to install or use in a particular time. The first step is learn and understand the theory of machine learning. For this,  I began to study the Machine Learning Course of Stanford. It’s a great and practical course with videos and material to help understand the classes.

ESTUFA is a framework that provides several ways to connect and re-use mobile applications (in previous post I already presented this idea). The system allow build “execution chains” to connect and plumb two applications.

During the last two years it is quite common to hear about new software forges, but I'm not going to talk about forges proliferation in this post, what I would to like to discuss is what the next step in collaborative development environments is. Thus in order to get the big picture I spent some hours looking for scientific and "informal" publications, now I think I have a good starting point and it would be great if you can offer feedback or even improve it.

During the next months I will work in three interesting topics. The first of them is the creation of a new architecture based in Android that allow communicate and integrate applications. The second  is the port of ARviewer to iPhone platform using phoneGap. And the last one is the very well-know Arduino and its possibilities with Android USB Host.
