Computer Science Fundamentals Object-Oriented Programming: A Practical Introduction (Part 2) In Part 1 of this mini-series, you saw how OOP concepts can be used to structure and manipulate code. In this part, you'll see how these ideas are formally defined, and look at a couple of more advanced concepts too.
Data Science How Good is Xanthus? Xanthus is a Deep Learning (DL) library built on top of Tensorflow and uses the Keras API to implement various neural recommendation model architectures. This post benchmarks the models implemented in Xanthus against some popular 'classic' matrix factorisation models.
Artificial Intelligence Introducing Xanthus This post introduces Xanthus - a new open source Deep Learning package built on TensorFlow 2.0 for quickly and easily building state of the art recommendation models in Python.
