Counterfactual learning to rank for utility-maximizing query autocompletion
Conventional methods for query autocompletion aim to predict which completed query a user will select from a list. A shortcoming of this approach is that users often do not know which query will provide the best retrieval performance on the current information retrieval system, meaning that any query autocompletion methods trained to mimic user behavior can lead to suboptimal query suggestions.
BHP Prepping Improved Offer For Anglo American
Mining giant BHP is reportedly considering a higher bid for UK-listed mining group Anglo American, having been rebuffed at its first approach last week. This comes after Anglo American rejected BHP’s initial $39 billion proposal, stating that it significantly undervalued the company and its future prospects. A source familiar with the matter has revealed that BHP is currently in discussions to revise its bid for Anglo American, with a new proposal expected in the coming weeks.
Ban Chemtrails in Arizona for Healthier Skies
My name is John Doe, an Arizonan deeply concerned about the health impacts of chemtrails. I have witnessed these trails crisscrossing our beautiful blue skies, and their potential harm worries me. Chemtrails are believed by some to be harmful to human health and the environment. While this theory remains controversial, it's crucial that we prioritize our health and take preventive measures when possible. Arizona is known for its clear skies and sunny weather.
Voices: Extending the VLE beyond the classroom: non-traditional pursuits of alternative careers | FE News
While the learning journey begins in the classroom, the lifelong learning journey can continue down many paths: Formal education, certificate programmes, military service, etc. For instance, personal lifelong learning is learning that we pursue outside educational institutions or the office. For some, this could represent just a hobby. For others, this could be an opportunity for a significant life change.
Magnetization dynamics with time-dependent spin-density functional theory: Significance of exchange-correlation torques
Abstract In spin-density functional theory (SDFT) for noncollinear magnetic materials, the Kohn-Sham system features exchange-correlation (xc) scalar potentials and magnetic fields. The significance of the xc magnetic fields is not very well explored; in particular, they can give rise to local torques on the magnetization, which are absent in standard local and semilocal approximations.

Applying PECOS to product retrieval and text autocompletion
In April, our research team at Amazon open-sourced our PECOS framework for extreme multilabel ranking (XMR), which is the general problem of classifying an input when you have an enormous space of candidate classes. PECOS presents a way to solve XMR problems that is both accurate and efficient enough for real-time use. At this year’s Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining Conference (KDD), members of our team presented two papers that demonstrate both the power and flexibility of the PECOS framework.
Amazon open-sources library for prediction over large output spaces
In the Internet age, many computational tasks involve finding a handful of solutions in an enormous space of candidates. Question-answering systems, for instance, can pull answers from anywhere on the web, while the Wikipedia taxonomy for classifying article topic classification has 500,000 terms. And of course, a product query at the Amazon Store has millions of potential matches. Such extreme multilabel ranking (XMR) problems pose two major challenges.

Opinion: Total Self-Sufficiency is Now Necessary for the UK
I will admit, I am usually an extremely pessimistic person and therefore extremely cautious, but this trait is also being adopted among world leaders in respect to how they handle the Covid-19 Pandemic in their own countries. This is clearly seen in how New Zealand’s Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, has adopted strict lockdowns at any sight of new cases while having a strict border policy, which has led to New Zealand becoming the best handler of the pandemic among developed nations.

Climate change research and action must look beyond 2100
Abstract Anthropogenic activity is changing Earth's climate and ecosystems in ways that are potentially dangerous and disruptive to humans. Greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere continue to rise, ensuring that these changes will be felt for centuries beyond 2100, the current benchmark for projection. Estimating the effects of past, current, and potential future emissions to only 2100 is therefore short-sighted.

Your strategy should drive your data, not the other way round
How the philosophy of science interacts with data science practice and business strategy Photo by Hassan Pasha on Unsplash One of the recent themes of business books and articles is having a “data driven strategy”. But what does that actually mean? Will strategic thinking fall by the wayside as the machines take over? What is the right relationship between strategy, data, and science? We’ll explore these questions by diving into a perhaps unexpected area: the philosophy of science.

The latitudinal diversity gradient of tetrapods across the Permo-Triassic mass extinction and recovery interval
1. Background The latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG) is one of the largest scale and longest known patterns in ecology (e.g. [1–7]). Modern biodiversity (i.e. richness) gradients are broadly defined as unimodal, with high biodiversity near the equator and low biodiversity at the poles [4,6]. The specifics of these gradients differ among taxonomic and ecological groups [2–4,6], and research over the last decade has revealed greater variation in modern LDGs than previously recognized.

The Joy of Simulation
Using Monte Carlo simulation to set test parameters and select algorithmic approaches Statistician’s paradise (Photo by John Schnobrich on Unsplash) One of the trickiest problems in data science, among a crowded field, is picking the right approach and tools for a task which doesn’t have a “ground truth” to compare different options against. By “ground truth” I mean examples of the real outcome that you’re trying to predict or evaluate.
Forecasts in the time of Corona
Now more than ever we need to be cautious in how we create and use forecasts Working in travel as a data scientist during this crisis, I’m frequently asked how data can be used to forecast when the travel industry will return to some sort of health. My answers all boil down to: “buddy, right now I can barely give you an accurate forecast of what’s going to happen this afternoon”. But that got me thinking: how should we be approaching forecasting at the moment? And what even is forecasting anyway?
