Google Colaboratory is a research tool for data science and machine learning. It’s a jupyter notebook environment that requires no setup to use. It is by far one of the most top tools especially for data scientists because you don’t have to manually install all the packages and libraries, just im... | ['Machine Learning', 'Google Colab', 'Data Science', 'Google Colaboratory', 'Google'] |
The accuracy improvement of CBAM comes with a negligible parameter overhead, indicating that enhancement is not due to a naive capacity increment but because of the effective feature refinement. | ['Convolutional Network', 'Artificial Intelligence', 'Image Classification', 'Deep Learning', 'Object Detection'] |
One of the dangers of writing fiction is that you eventually realize you are emptying your words into a literary black hole of no return. That’s not a fun thing to realize, but it’s important. You need to know when to reboot your work.

Euclidean distance
Euclidean distance is the shortest distance between two points in an N-dimensional space also known as Euclidean space. It is used as a common metric to measure the similarity between two data points and used in various fields such as geometry, data mining, deep learning, and others.

I have been working on making pages faster for over a decade and have seen all kinds of shenanigans when it comes to page speed. Way back in the day, we mistakenly used server response times which were soon replaced by time-to-first byte. Oh and then we got fancy.
We started measuring “page load” (or specifically the ... | ['Google', 'Page Speed', 'Core Web Vitals'] |
When we first started to make fiction films we had no clue what we were doing. What happened was that we’d set up a camera and shoot everything in one shot, from a wide angle. The result looked something like a theater play.
The first websites we made were just pieces of text with a couple of hyperlinks and buttons. W... | ['VR', 'Storytelling', 'Virtual Reality'] |
