The 30 Second Bayesian Classifier #machinelearning #bayes #classification
I’m putting this up as I got a nice email from a reader who was having trouble with running the Britney example. And as developers know, bad examples are enough to put people off…. actually they’re toxic. See what I did there… Classifier4J The Classifier4J library is old so it’s not on any Maven repository…

#MachineLearning: Hands On For Developers and Technical Professionals. Pre Order.
The book has been on pre order for a little while already but I didn’t want say anything until there was a cover.

Twitter Fashion Analytics in Spring XD [Part 2]#BigData #Fashion
