Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has transformed the field of transcriptomics by making it possible for researchers to address fundamental questions that could not be tackled by bulk-level ...

It’s tempting just to replicate all databases in the cloud, but it’s a much better approach to get your data house in order as part of the move. Last week I discussed database normalization as a best ...

A substantial portion of medical data is unstructured. Extracting data from unstructured text presents a barrier to advancing clinical research and improving patient care. In addition, ongoing studies ...

Arguably, the two biggest challenges in the FAST ecosystem are managing the ad experience and delivering ROI for the brands that support the platform. Evan Shapiro, CEO, ESHAP, Patrick Courtney, SVP, ...

Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research uses a full code sample and screenshots to show how to programmatically normalize numeric data for use in a machine learning system such as a deep neural ...

This is the second in a series on what’s still broken in the analytics space. Part one dealt with data ownership, part two will address technology and part three will focus on people and processes.

This article explains how to programmatically normalize numeric data for use in a machine learning (ML) system such as a deep neural network classifier or clustering algorithm. Suppose you are trying ...

We collected a unique pair of microRNA sequencing data sets for the same set of tumor samples; one data set was collected with and the other without uniform handling and balanced design. The former ...

I have an order table that is an order for a customer. I need to reference as a foreign key an unknown number of products that could make up the order (product_id) how do I do this? What am I missing.
