[Datasciencecentral] BigDataFr recommends: Representation of Numbers with Incredibly Fast Converging Fractions

BigDataFr recommends: Representation of Numbers with Incredibly Fast Converging Fractions […] Here we discuss a new system to represent numbers, for instance constants such as Pi, e, or log 2, using rational fractions. Each iteration doubles the precision (the number of correct decimals computed) making it converging much faster than current systems such as continued […]

[arXiv] BigDataFr recommends: Amplifying Inter-message Distance: On Information Divergence Measures in Big Data

BigDataFr recommends: Amplifying Inter-message Distance: On Information Divergence Measures in Big Data […] Subjects: Information Theory (cs.IT) Message identification (M-I) divergence is an important measure of the information distance between probability distributions, similar to Kullback-Leibler (K-L) and Renyi divergence. In fact, M-I divergence with a variable parameter can make an effect on characterization of distinction […]

[arXiv] BigDataFr recommends: Visualization of Big Spatial Data using Coresets for Kernel Density Estimates

BigDataFr recommends: Visualization of Big Spatial Data using Coresets for Kernel Density Estimates […] Subjects: Human-Computer Interaction (cs.HC); Computational Geometry (cs.CG) The size of large, geo-located datasets has reached scales where visualization of all data points is inefficient. Random sampling is a method to reduce the size of a dataset, yet it can introduce unwanted […]

[arXiv] BigDataFr recommends: A European research roadmap for optimizing societal impact of big data on environment and energy efficiency

BigDataFr recommends: A European research roadmap for optimizing societal impact of big data on environment and energy efficiency […] We present a roadmap to guide European research efforts towards a socially responsible big data economy that maximizes the positive impact of big data in environment and energy efficiency. The goal of the roadmap is to […]
