Hello NuPIC, Here are some things I'm working on:
1. Setting up HTM Challenge stuff, talking to A/V folks and Teri, Taylor Wirfs, and our new Director of Marketing, Christy Maver. You'll meet them all if you can make it to the Onsite. They are very friendly and helpful. 2. Trying to figure out what River View is... 3. Helping people with installation problems. (If there is anyone reading this with installation problems, email me: [email protected] I want to help.) 4. Making videos. I hope you've noticed, but does it help? Should I keep it up? 5. Trying to come up with a good example of NuPIC using multiple input streams to contribute to a better prediction than with only one input stream. I have access to good weather data for years in all major cities. I have Chicago 311 calls in River View for "Tree Debris" requests, which should be an effect of storms. With the 311 data alone, HTM would certainly show a jump like this [1] to be anomalous. (sidenote [2]). At this point I'm fetching live data from the wunderground API and River View, caching on the file system, and converting files to a CSV I can swarm over [3]. Is anyone interested in taking over from here? I was planning on predicting tree debris call rates but that's kindof an awful idea for an application. I'd call it the Common Sense app. :P 6. Reading and commenting on GitHub, but less lately because of the Challenge. That's a lot of extra work. I've been happy seeing others organizing themselves a bit. I would be happy to try and help as I can. There was a request to automate some ticket creation [4]. I will try to get to this, but probably after the Challenge is over. I would like to spent some time to focus on automation updates and reporting metrics. I see a lot I could improve, but that's another story. Anyway, it's the end of my night, and it has been a pleasure. Thanks for reading. What are you folks working on? I'm sure there are some of you with big plans... [1] http://data.numenta.org/chicago-311/Tree%20Debris/data.html?aggregate=1%20day&since=1435789793 [2] Would any of you be interested in having every major city's weather data in daily to hourly intervals in River View? I have a way to do this, but it will cost $$ and I want to make sure it's worth it. Please tell me if you would use this with HTM. I think weather contributes to plenty of data streams.
