Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

[D] What are your favorite Random Forest implementations that support categoricals
If you considering GBDT check out catboost, unfortunately RF mode is not available but library implement lots of interesting categorical encoding tricks that boost accuracy.

CatBoost and Water Pumps
The data contains a large number of categorical features. The most suitable for obtaining a base-line model, in my opinion, is CatBoost. It is a high-performance, open-source library for gradient boosting on decision trees.

How much C++ is used when it comes to performing quant research?
Does C++ have the equivalent of Pandas or Apache Spark? Are there extensive libraries that exist/are being developed that allow you to perform operations with data? Or do people just use a combination of Python & its various libraries (NumPy etc)? If we leave aside the data bit, are there libraries that allow you to develop ML models in C++ (mlpack for instance ) faster & more efficiently compared to their Python counterparts (scikit-learn)? On a more general note, how does C++ fit into the routine of a Quant Researcher? And at what scale does an organization decide they need to start switching to other languages and spend more time developing the code ?
