Weekly Open Source News -1

Hello everyone!

Welcome to the first edition of Open Source Weekly where I bring you to the new and updated Github  repositories which we use now and then.

Pandas (Python)

The @pandas-dev/pandas have recently started a new contribution milestone for non organisation members named "Contributions Welcome", which happens to be described as Changes that would be nice to have in the next release. These issues are not blocking. They will be pushed to the next release if no one has time to fix them. 
And as for now, it is about 20% completed. So do look out for new issues here and there if you are interested in making some sexy Data Frame stuff.

Atom (JavaScript)

The @atom/atom are facing a really interesting issue right now, Namely : 

Atom does not quit on OS X #17672


Interesting, no? Apparently both shortcut and menu bar exit ain't working for this guy, so incase anyone is interested in helping out: they surely can.

The Link for the same is : Atom does not quit on OS X #17672

#MyFeaturedRepository

Spring-Boot is a Java Based Open Source Repository.

From there README.md : 
Spring Boot makes it easy to create Spring-powered, production-grade applications and services with absolute minimum fuss. It takes an opinionated view of the Spring platform so that new and existing users can quickly get to the bits they need.
You can use Spring Boot to create stand-alone Java applications that can be started using java -jar or more traditional WAR deployments. We also provide a command line tool that runs spring scripts.
Our primary goals are:
  • Provide a radically faster and widely accessible getting started experience for all Spring development
  • Be opinionated out of the box, but get out of the way quickly as requirements start to diverge from the defaults
  • Provide a range of non-functional features that are common to large classes of projects (e.g. embedded servers, security, metrics, health checks, externalized configuration)
  • Absolutely no code generation and no requirement for XML configuration
My Verdict : This sounds like a good repository to contribute to. In case any java enthusiast with fair HTML concepts wants to try their hands at open source development, this can be a good place.

Kaggle Dataset Analysis : Is your Avocado organic or not?

Hey readers! Today, allow me to present you yet another dataset analysis of a rather gluttony topic, namely Avocado price analysis. This Data set  represents the historical data on avocado prices and sales volume in multiple US markets. Our prime objectives will be to visualize the dataset, pre-process it and ultimately test multiple sklearn classifiers to checkout which one gives us the best confidence and accuracy for our Avocado's Organic assurance! Note : I'd like to extend the kernel contribution to Shivam Negi . All this code belongs to him. Data Visualization This script must procure the following jointplot  While a similar joint plot can be drawn for conluding the linearly exponent relations between extra large bags and the small ones. Pre Processing The following script has been used for pre processing the input data. Model Definition and Comparisons We will be looking mostly at three different models, namely ran

Your help in Fashion : 7 layer CNN at your service (~92% accurate)

Hey Readers! Welcome to yet another post where I play with a self designed neural network. This CNN would be tackling a variant of classical MNIST known as Fashion MNIST dataset  . Before we start exploring what is the approach for this dataset, let's first checkout what this dataset really is. Fashion-MNIST is a dataset of Zalando's article images—consisting of a training set of 60,000 examples and a test set of 10,000 examples. Each example is a 28x28 grayscale image, associated with a label from 10 classes. Zalando intends Fashion-MNIST to serve as a direct drop-in replacement for the original MNIST dataset for benchmarking machine learning algorithms. It shares the same image size and structure of training and testing splits. The original MNIST dataset contains a lot of handwritten digits. Members of the AI/ML/Data Science community love this dataset and use it as a benchmark to validate their algorithms. In fact, MNIST is often the first dataset researchers try. &q

IOT Breakthrough : TensorFlow 1.9 Officially Supports the Raspberry Pi

Hey Readers! Good news for all the "cheap fair power" computer fans, as a result of a major collaboration effort between TensorFlow and Raspberry Pi foundation, one can now install tensorflow precompiled binaries using Python's pip package system !  When TensorFlow was first launched in 2015, they wanted it to be an “ open source machine learning framework for everyone ”. To do that, they needed to run on as many of the platforms that people are using as possible. They have long supported Linux, MacOS, Windows, iOS, and Android, but despite the heroic efforts of many contributors, running TensorFlow on a Raspberry Pi has involved a lot of work. If one is using Rasbian9 they can simply use these 2 commands to install tensorflow on their machine! According to an excerpt from TensorFlow's medium article page :  " We’re excited about this because the Raspberry Pi is used by many innovative developers, and is also widely used in education to
