Create a pandas dataframe with a date column: import pandas as pd import datetime TODAY = datetime.date.today() ONE_WEEK = datetime.timedelta(days=7) ONE_DAY = datetime.timedelta(days=1) df = pd.DataFrame({‘dt’: [TODAY-ONE_WEEK, TODAY-3*ONE_DAY, TODAY], ‘x’: [42, 45,127]}) The dates have gaps: dt x 0 2018-11-19…
Cosine similarity is the normalised dot product between two vectors. I guess it is called “cosine” similarity because the dot product is the product of Euclidean magnitudes of the two vectors and the cosine of the angle between them. If…
Now that I work in shipping, it is necessary to learn a bunch of new terms. Shipping is regulated under Admiralty Law and there are traditional documents and parties involved. Knowing what these are is crucial to understanding shipping. Legal…
Here is how to sample from a softmax probability vector at different temperatures. import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import matplotlib as mpl import seaborn as sns mpl.rcParams[‘figure.dpi’]= 144 trials = 1000 softmax = [0.1, 0.3, 0.6] def…
Here is the code: %matplotlib inline import geopandas as gpd import matplotlib as mpl # make rcParams available (optional) mpl.rcParams[‘figure.dpi’]= 144 # increase dpi (optional) world = gpd.read_file(gpd.datasets.get_path(“naturalearth_lowres”)) world = world[world.name != ‘Antarctica’] # remove Antarctica (optional) world[‘gdp_per_person’] = world.gdp_md_est…
Step one: brew install glpk pip install pulp Step two: from pulp import * prob = LpProblem(“test1”, LpMinimize) # Variables x = LpVariable(“x”, 0, 4, cat=”Integer”) y = LpVariable(“y”, -1, 1, cat=”Integer”) z = LpVariable(“z”, 0, cat=”Integer”) # Objective prob…
I was looking at arial photos of north-western Europe in Google Maps when I noticed a big white dot on the map! I thought, what the hell? To satisfy my curiosity I decided to zoom in for further investigation. It…
Datasets: – Urban morphological zones 2000 (EU): – Population count (World): – Administrative regions (World): The map is European since the “urban” data from the European Environmental Agency (EEA) only covers Europe. Caveats The UMZ data ended…
The GADM database contains geographical data for administrative regions, e.g. countries, regions and municipalities. As always, once you have the data in the right format, it is easy to import it into a database. The data is available from GADM…
