There are dozens of different ways to estimate quantiles. One of these ways is to use the Sfakianakis-Verginis quantile estimator. To be more specific, it’s a family of three estimators. If we want to estimate the $p^\textrm{th}$ quantile of sample $X$, we can use one of the following equations: $$ \begin{split} \operatorname{SV1}_p =& \frac{B_0}{2} \big( X_{(1)}+X_{(2)}-X_{(3)} \big) + \sum_{i=1}^{n} \frac{B_i+B_{i-1}}{2} X_{(i)} + \frac{....

You can learn quite a bit about a browser from observing the requests it makes in its first moments with a new user profile. Often, a cursory examination will tell you a great deal about how the browser thinks about, and handles, user privacy and security.

I’ve created a few quick-reference articles and it might not be clear why. There are a few reasons: These articles are mainly a reference for me. I find myself searching the same things over and over, looking for the purple link, scrolling through the article, then copy & pasting code. I’d rather not go through the hassle. These articles aim to solve that problem. I aim to keep the answers above the fold . I don’t want to have to scroll ....

Often it is useful to save python data to json files. The following code will demonstrate how that can be done. “God bless JSON!” ~ a soon to be famous programmer import json data = {'a': 1, 'b':'hello', 'c':False} filename = 'awesome_data.json' # write data to file with open(filename, 'w') as f: json.dump(data, f) # read json from file with open(filename, 'r') as f: data = json.load(f) print(data) # prints {'a': 1, 'b':'hello', 'c..

Autoencoding stock prices as found in Heaton et al., 2016 So you want to build an autoencoder? Great! This article will demonstrate how to build an autoencoder and use it to measure stock prices against an index. This technique is described in more technical terms here . Once we’ve trained the autoencoder, we can use it to measure how well each component follows the other members of the index. This can be useful for finding deeper in..

tldr; reimplement standard library functions in your favorite language without loops . Background For a few years after college I spent a lot of free time doing projects in Standard ML and Scheme. As a result I got really comfortable doing recursion. The two big reasons for this are 1) neither Standard ML or Scheme have loops and 2) they both have very small standard libraries. (Ok, they have loops. They're just so limited as to be useles....

Real-time payments are one of the most significant financial innovations of the last decade. They have benefited from multi-fold growth in adoption and have boosted micro digital economies across the world - developing and developed nations, alike. Just six years ago, only 14 countries had this capability. Today, 56 nations have enabled real-time payments — still less than one-third of the world’s nations.

As any other bookworm worth its salt, I digested a generous amount of books on books and the history of libraries. Alberto Manguel’s The Library at Night was last, and that is a pity. It probably arrived just a little too late on my shelves. I wish I found it at the beginning of my reading journey when my enthusiasm for libraries and their contents was pristine.

Our journey begins with three terms, propaganda, influence, and persuasion. To most, they sound like synonyms but each convey a different concept. Like any form of communication the internet can be used as a channel for them. What does communication consist of? The very broad domain of communication studies — with multiple sub-disciplines such as journalism, film critic, public relation, and political science — often use a simple reductioni..

The always brilliant Hynek recently posted Semantic Versioning Will Not Save You . Primarily targeted at consumers of SemVer-versioned packages, it is full of insightful advice. From my perspective as an open-source maintainer, I can tell you that versioning is hard. Judging when a new release is going to break backward compatibility is not as simple as it might seem on the surface, and Hynek does a great job explaining why. Sometimes ..
