This world needs a new theory — a theory that could describe all the theories on the planet. A theory that could easily describe philosophy, mathematics, physics, and psychology. The one that makes all kinds of sciences computable.

This is exactly what we are working on. If we succeed, this theory will become the unified meta-theory of everything.

A year has passed since our last publication, and our task is to share the progress with our English-speaking audience. This is still not a stable version; it’s a draft. Therefore, we welcome any feedback, as well as your participation in the development of the links theory.

As with everything we have done before, the links theory is published and released into the public domain — it belongs to humanity, that means, it is yours. This work has many authors, but the work itself is far more important than any specific authorship. We hope that today it can become useful to more people.

We invite you to become a part of this exciting adventure.

This text presents jBPM as a platform for orchestrating external AI-centric environments, such as Python, used for designing and running AI solutions. We will provide an overview of jBPM’s most relevant functionalities for AI orchestration and walk you through a practical example that demonstrates its effectiveness as an AI orchestration platform:

In recent years, discussions about the environmental impact of information and communication technologies (ICTs) have largely revolved around hardware — data centers, electronic waste, and energy consumption. However, an equally important factor has been overlooked: the software development methodologies themselves.

When I read the UNCTAD “Digital Economy Report 2024”, I was struck by the complete absence of any mention of how programming methodologies impact sustainability. There was no discussion of whether developers use algorithm-centric or code-centric methodologies when creating software, nor how these choices affect the environment.

This realization led me to introduce the concept of Eco-Methodological Sustainability — a new approach that highlights the role of structured software development methodologies in shaping an environmentally sustainable future for the digital economy.

Apache Kafka is a distributed event-streaming platform designed to handle real-time data feeds. It allows applications to publish, process, and subscribe to streams of data in a highly scalable, fault-tolerant manner.

In today's digital world, where applications process increasing amounts of sensitive data, ensuring reliable user authentication is critical. Authentication is the process of verifying the identity of a user who is trying to access a system. A properly chosen authentication method protects data from unauthorized access, prevents fraud, and increases user confidence.

However, with the development of technology, new authentication methods are emerging, and choosing the optimal solution can be difficult. This article will help developers and business owners understand the variety of authentication approaches and make informed choices.

Wearable Digital Health Technologies for Monitoring in Cardiovascular Medicine

This review article presents a three-part true-life clinical vignette that illustrates how digital health technology can aid providers caring for patients with cardiovascular disease. Specific information that would identify real patients has been removed or altered. Each vignette is followed by a discussion of how these methods were used in the care of the patient.

Below, we will discuss user-defined aggregation functions (UDAF) using org.apache.spark.sql.expressions.Aggregator, which can be used for aggregating groups of elements in a DataSet into a single value in any user-defined way.

Let’s start by examining an example from the official documentation that implements a simple aggregation

This is a step-by-step research of a clear and intuitive approach to validate custom data in .NET applications with help of the Minimal API filters and the FlatValidator.

In the evolving landscape of database technology, choosing the right database management system is crucial for the efficiency and scalability of applications. This article presents a detailed comparison of the performance between Microsoft's CosmosDB and MS SQL Server. We'll examine how each database performs under various load conditions and share some interesting findings.

No matter how many degrees you have or how high your experience level is, your recruiters need to evaluate your knowledge of UX design as a whole. But keep in mind that a job interview is not an exam, so here you are expected not to recite the textbook definitions learned by heart, but rather share your personal understanding of UX and your role as a designer in general. Consider talking about how you define UX, what creates value in the design, what are the necessary parts of a UX design process, what are the current trends in UX. You might also be asked to explain the difference between UI and UX to see how you understand the role of each in the development process.

Hello, everyone! In this post, let's talk about how to (more) accurately measure the dynamic range of a camera sensor and what can be done with these measurements.

Of course, I am not an expert in computer vision, a programmer or a statistician, so please feel free to correct me in the comments if I make mistakes in this post. Here my interest was primarily focused on everyday and practical tasks, such as photography, but I believe the results may also be useful to computer vision professionals.

Let’s imagine you need access to the real-time data of some smart contracts on Ethereum (or Polygon, BSC, etc.) like Uniswap or even PEPE coin to analyze its data using the standard data scientist/analyst tools: Python, Pandas, Matplotlib, etc. In this tutorial, I’ll show you more sophisticated data access tools that are more like a surgical scalpel (The Graph subgraphs) than a well-known Swiss knife (RPC node access) or hammer (ready-to-use APIs). I hope my metaphors don’t scare you ?.

This article aims at explaining the mathematical sense of the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) in practice.

Brief problem formulation

The program accepts as input the absolute path to the image in the bmp extension and the path where you save the result of the work. Then, it rotates the image by 90 degrees counterclockwise. Afterwards, the program saves the new image.

The program is executed on C.

Explaining main algorithm.

For a while I’ve been thinking of writing a scientific article. I wanted it to have certain utility.

Morse code is binary: it takes only two values – either dot (short) or hyphen (long). I figured out that short (s) can stand for two-eye blinking whilst long (l) can indicate left-eye blinking. Another question emerged: how to understand when does one-symbol recording stop?

Empty space between two symbols can be presented by right-eye blinking – r. If I input singly symbol of short (dot) and long (hyphen), I will blink my right eye once to indicate the space between two symbols.

To separate independent words, one has to blink her right eye twice and get rr.

Hence, I have collected an ordered set of symbols – r, l, s, - that can be converted into a full-fledged text. Once I accomplish the transformation, I get an answer.

The most important stage in the data science process is feature engineering, which entails turning raw data into useful features that might enhance the performance of machine learning models. It calls for creativity, data-driven thinking, and domain expertise. Data scientists can improve the prediction capability of their models and find hidden patterns in the data by choosing, combining, and inventing relevant features. Handling missing data, scaling features, encoding categorical variables, constructing interaction terms, and other procedures are examples of feature engineering techniques. The best practises involve investigating the data, testing and improving features iteratively, and applying domain knowledge to draw out important information. The accuracy and effectiveness of machine learning models are significantly influenced by effective feature engineering.

In 2021, we were contacted by an industrial plant that was faced with the need to create a system for analyzing processes in its production. The enterprise team studied ready-made solutions, but none of the analytics system designs fully covered the required functionality. So they turned to us with a request to develop their own analytical system that would collect data from all machines and allow it to be analyzed to see bottlenecks in production. For this project, we created a data-driven UI/UX design and also developed a web-based interface for the equipment monitoring system.

Toloka is a crowdsourcing platform and microtasking project launched by Yandex to quickly markup large amounts of data. But how can such a simple concept play a crucial role in improving the work of neural networks?
