Augmented reality is a term we’ve all heard of, but few developers are able to create immersive AR experiences — it often requires 3D design skills that are often missed in software development courses.

Thankfully, Apple’s Reality Composer makes it easy to build quick, immersive experiences without having experience with CAD and 3D modeling. While beginners can start with this tutorial, I strongly recommend checking out my previous tutorial for a more basic look at Reality Composer.

Accessing a device’s calendar in a React Native app can be a bit tricky. Using open source modules like react-native-add-calendar-event is helpful when you’re looking to show a calendar inside a modal or manipulate calendar events (adding, editing, etc).

It’s Friday. I’m checking my phone for the 30th time in the last hour. It’s 1:02 P.M. Something’s wrong. The UPS courier is late. They said it would arrive by 1 P.M — why is it not here? I was preparing one of my fresh daily emails, but I couldn’t focus. And suddenly… DING DONG! 🔔 He’s here! I suddenly felt super excited. It felt like Christmas. This morning, I received my OAK-D Camera…

The main aim of this article is to introduce you to language models, starting with neural machine translation (NMT) and working towards generative language models.

For the purposes of this tutorial, even with limited prior knowledge of NLP or recurrent neural networks (RNNs), you should be able to follow along and catch up with these state-of-the-art language modeling techniques.

As the spread of COVID 19 continues, communities are told to reduce close contact between individuals. This is called Social Distancing, as it is a necessary and effective way to slow down the spread of the virus. As a data science student, I came with a solution to identify whether people actually follow the social distancing protocol of staying at least 6 feet from each other.

In this post, we’ll have explore the fundamentals of ensemble learning. Specifically, we’ll discuss techniques like bagging, boosting, and stacking in detail and take a brief look at various foundational algorithms that adopt these techniques.

Without further ado, let’s get started!

This article presents techniques for improving classification accuracy by aggregating various classifiers in different ways. These techniques are known as the ensemble methods.
