Spell Checking in Deezer Search Engine by Marion Baranes, Search Scientist @ Deezer during the Paris Women in Machine Learning & Data Science meet-up in April 2018.
Words vs. numbers: Word-based organization has become a much talked about trend in public libraries. Using words instead of the Dewey Decimal Classification System provides customers the ability to browse and find exactly what they want without having to interpret numerical codes. This invigorating panel will focus on the process of implementing word-based systems and why libraries are deciding to break down barriers so they can make searching more intuitive for customers.
Crossing the Streams: the New Streaming Foreign-Key Join Feature in Kafka Str...confluent
Have you ever wished that KTable joins worked like SQL joins? Well, now they do! Foreign-key, many:one, joins were added to Apache Kafka in 2.4. This talk is a deep dive into the surprisingly complex implementation required to compute these joins correctly. Building on that understanding, we'll discuss how you can expect Streams to behave when you use the feature, including how to test it, and thoughts on optimization. Finally, we will take Bazaarvoice as a case study. They are in process on migrating from their high-scale in-house stream processing platform to one based on Apache Kafka and Kafka Streams. I'll share the way that they implemented foreign-key joins on Kafka 2.3, and how much simpler it is with native support. Plus, we will also share key operational insights from their experience
MULDER: Querying the Linked Data Web by Bridging RDF Molecule TemplatesKemele M. Endris
The increasing number of RDF data sources that allow for
querying Linked Data via Web services form the basis for federated SPARQL query processing. Federated SPARQL query engines provide a unified view of a federation of RDF data sources, and rely on source descriptions for selecting the data sources over which unified queries will be executed. Albeit efficient, existing federated SPARQL query engines usually ignore the meaning of data accessible from a data source,
and describe sources only in terms of the vocabularies utilized in the data source. Lack of source description may conduce to the erroneous selection of data sources for a query, thus affecting the performance of query processing over the federation. We tackle the problem of federated SPARQL query processing and devise MULDER, a query engine for federations of RDF data sources. MULDER describes data sources in terms of RDF molecule templates, i.e., abstract descriptions of entities
belonging to the same RDF class. Moreover, MULDER utilizes RDF molecule templates for source selection, and query decomposition and optimization. We empirically study the performance of MULDER on existing benchmarks, and compare MULDER performance with state-of-the-art federated SPARQL query engines. Experimental results suggest that RDF molecule templates empower MULDER federated query processing, and allow for the selection of RDF data sources that not only reduce execution time, but also increase answer completeness.

Profile-based Dataset Recommendation for RDF Data Linking Mohamed BEN ELLEFI
With the emergence of the Web of Data, most notably Linked Open Data (LOD), an abundance of data has become available on the web. However, LOD datasets and their inherent subgraphs vary heavily with respect to their size, topic and domain coverage, the schemas and their data dynamicity (respectively schemas and metadata) over the time. To this extent, identifying suitable datasets, which meet spefic criteria, has become an increasingly important, yet challenging task to support issues such as entity retrieval or semantic search and data linking. Particularly with respect to the interlinking issue, the current topology of the LOD cloud underlines the need for practical and ecient means to recommend suitable datasets: currently, only well-known reference graphs such as DBpedia (the most obvious target), YAGO or Freebase show a high amount of in-links, while there exists a long tail of potentially suitable yet under-recognized datasets. This problem is due to
the semantic web tradition in dealing with "fnding candidate datasets to link to", where data publishers are used to identify target datasets for interlinking.
While an understanding of the nature of the content of specic datasets is a crucial
prerequisite for the mentioned issues, we adopt in this dissertation the notion of
\dataset prole" | a set of features that describe a dataset and allow the comparison
of dierent datasets with regard to their represented characteristics. Our
rst research direction was to implement a collaborative ltering-like dataset recommendation
approach, which exploits both existing dataset topic proles, as well
as traditional dataset connectivity measures, in order to link LOD datasets into
a global dataset-topic-graph. This approach relies on the LOD graph in order to
learn the connectivity behaviour between LOD datasets. However, experiments have
shown that the current topology of the LOD cloud group is far from being complete
to be considered as a ground truth and consequently as learning data.
Facing the limits the current topology of LOD (as learning data), our research
has led to break away from the topic proles representation of \learn to rank"
approach and to adopt a new approach for candidate datasets identication where
the recommendation is based on the intensional proles overlap between dierent
datasets. By intensional prole, we understand the formal representation of a set of
schema concept labels that best describe a dataset and can be potentially enriched

As electricity is difficult to store, it is crucial to strictly maintain the balance between production and consumption. The integration of intermittent renewable energies into the production mix has made the management of the balance more complex. However, access to near real-time data and communication with consumers via smart meters suggest demand response. Specifically, sending signals would encourage users to adjust their consumption according to the production of electricity. The algorithms used to select these signals must learn consumer reactions and optimize them while balancing exploration and exploitation. Various sequential or reinforcement learning approaches are being considered.

In the energy sector, the use of temporal data stands as a pivotal topic. At GRDF, we have developed several methods to effectively handle such data. This presentation will specifically delve into our approaches for anomaly detection and data imputation within time series, leveraging transformers and adversarial training techniques.
Natasha shares her experience to delve into the complexities, challenges, and strategies associated with effectively leading tech teams dispersed across borders.
Nour and Maria present the work they did at Tweag, Modus Create innovation arm, where the GenAI team developed an evaluation framework for Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems. RAG systems provide an easy and low-cost way to extend the knowledge of Large Language Models (LLMs) but measuring their performance is not an easy task.
The presentation will review existing evaluation frameworks, ranging from those based on the traditional ML approach of using groundtruth datasets, including Tweag's, to those that use LLMs to compute evaluation metrics.
It will also delve into the practical implementation of Tweag's chatbot over two distinct documents datasets and provide insights on chunking, embedding and how open source and commercial LLMs compare.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

19. Formal analogy means that relation between these four objects has to be graphemic.
Stroppa and Yvon (2005, 2006) define formal analogy with two notions:
(1) an object can be split into sub-parts called factors
(2) Two pairs of objects share a relation of analogy, if all factors can be exchanged together:
○ inside each pair of objects,
○ between two pairs of objects.
complicat ed : complicat ion x1 = y1
x1 x2 y1 y2 z1 = t1
creat ed : creat ion x2 = z2
z1 z2 t1 t2 y2 = t2
For t the attended form to resolve the analogy [x:y :: z:? ], we can predict t (composed of factor of y and z)
