Introduction to the Clojure Programming Language

Author: Aasemoon

21 Oct

Last week I attended an afterhours introductory lecture to the Clojure programming language [at the ETH as usual]. Currently my only knowledge of Clojure comes from a few Channel 9 talks, and this lecture gave me a better idea of what the language is all about. Now I’m finding myself getting more interested and looking for a reason to use it.

For anyone who might be interested, here you can find the lecture slides.

There’s a Clojure online REPL here. And interestingly enough there’s even an Android version of the REPL available for free here.

P.S.: I now have a Clojure page on Verse.

Microsoft Sho

Author: Aasemoon

10 Feb

As of last week, Microsoft Sho [the .NET Playground for Data] is publicly available for download. Check it out.

“Sho is an interactive environment for data analysis and scientific computing that lets you seamlessly connect scripts (in IronPython) with compiled code (in .NET) to enable fast and flexible prototyping. The environment includes powerful and efficient libraries for linear algebra as well as data visualization that can be used from any .NET language, as well as a feature-rich interactive shell for rapid development. Sho is available under the following license.”

I’ve been trying it out a bit, and skimming through the book. I think there’s a possibility that I just may like this thing better than R. There’s also a rather interesting Channel 9 video on the topic. Here it is:

Ability to ‘see’ advances artificial intelligence

Author: Aasemoon

20 Oct

Pretty cool article I found on MS research today. Check out the awesome AI receptionist avatar!

“Eric Horvitz, a distinguished scientist at Microsoft Research, has an equally distinguished receptionist. After eight years of working with him, she’s developed a feel for his habits and routines. She can predict how long his meetings are likely to last, knows when he can’t be interrupted and senses when he’ll be running late. Not bad for an avatar.”
