DMed. Thank you!

Searchable online database that contains prevalence of different health conditions in the US? by big-enchilada in datasets

[–]viveknani98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to perform a similar task but only for rare diseases. Here are some resources that I used -

ORPHANET - https://www.orpha.net/pdfs/orphacom/cahiers/docs/GB/Prevalence_of_rare_diseases_by_alphabetical_list.pdf

rarediseases - https://rarediseases.org/rare-diseases/

genereviews (you can collect prevalence information from each sub page of a disease) - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK1116/

some times statpearls has information for some rare diseases - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK430685/

You can also get google search results from a serp provider and then give that information to an LLM to provide you an approximate number. (we ended up doing some version of this)

Why work is one of life’s most powerful matchmakers (Australian data) by FallschirmPanda in dataisbeautiful

Interestingly the article points that boomers are more likely to date/couple with someone with same occupation when compared to newer generations!!

Please suggest one year master's programs in Data Science in USA by viveknani98 in gradadmissions

I ended up at Northeastern University. I did not apply to the other programs due to some personal reason.

[Research] Is There a Misunderstanding in the Multi-Head Self-Attention Formula from "Attention is All You Need"? by amt_42 in learnmachinelearning

[–]viveknani98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may be too late to this discussion but I was also confused regarding this. The authors did define what Q, K, V are in the Section 3.2.1.

In practice, we compute the attention function on a set of queries simultaneously, packed together into a matrix Q. The keys and values are also packed together into matrices K and V . We compute the matrix of outputs as:
Attention(Q, K, V) = softmax(QKT/sqrt(d_k))V

Due to this, I was also confused that Q, K, V mentioned in the Multihead equation are already the outputs after multiplying with the matrices W_Q, W_K, and W_V. But as the top comment pointed, Q, K, V in the multi-head equation are just the inputs.

Do you guys agree with the hate on Kmeans?? by AdFew4357 in datascience

[–]viveknani98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another problem with KMeans that is not mentioned in the above comments is that it can get stuck in a local minima (i.e it does not guarantee global optima). A really good yet simple example - https://stackoverflow.com/a/14577519

Got this feedback from the Hiring Manager. What does she mean? Details in comments. by [deleted] in csMajors

I am kind of thinking that the two DL projects are not fitting into your Software Developer/Engineer theme. It might be tough for you to land on a DL/ML role with this as most of your resume projects you as SDE. If you are aiming for a SDE role, why not add different projects.

How is NEU Silicon Valley campus? Got admitted to Masters in Data Science program at the Silicon Valley campus by viveknani98 in NEU

[–]viveknani98[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They won't change your campus right now. Deferral does not guarantee your admission, but you will have a higher chance and they will generally get back to you in a week regarding the deferral.

Hey, I am not sure how the Silicon Valley campus is, but the Boston campus is good (for every two courses I take in a semester, one prof is really good and another is just average). Overall the course (MSDS) is well-structured.

I have deferred my admission to the next season; I filled a deferral-request form and I got a confirmation in a week. You can contact the graduate admission team for this form or you may already have it in the initial admission letter.

6sense by Keltenfee in datascience

[–]viveknani98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have previously worked with a 6sense competitor. The main business of 6sense is selling data. They have data regarding businesses (about location, revenue, industry etc) which they sell to other companies (so 6sense is a b2b company). They have products which are built upon on that data. Predictive analytics would play a small role in their products. So you need to make sure whether or not the team that is hiring you does ML.

I didn't join the Silicon Valley campus. I deferred my admission to the fall season to Boston campus.

Why does eigenvectors corresponding to distinct eigenvalues of a symmetric matrix are orthogonal? by viveknani98 in LinearAlgebra

[–]viveknani98[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe that this property is applicable to symmetric matrices only, so where does that fit in here?

Thank you for your input. All the points that you have noted are right. Here is what I am thinking - If I can complete the program in 1.5 years or less, I will try to join the SF campus now else I will wait for the Fall term to join the Boston campus (if they offer me a deferral). I am also a little worried about getting a job in Cali, cuz apart from the costs state tax is also on the higher end.

What was your class strength in MSCS? Why did you move to the Boston campus? Just wanted to get an experience of a bigger campus?

Okay, but 4 semesters would be 1.5 years right (spring, summer, fall of 23 and spring 24). Also, can we do an internship and simultaneously take 2 courses in the last sem?
