Data scientists often prefer Python for its simplicity and powerful libraries like Pandas or SciPy. However, many real-time data processing tools are Java-based. Take the example of Kafka, Flink, or Spark streaming. While these tools have their Python API/wrapper libraries, they introduce increased latency, and data scientists need to manage dependencies for both Python and JVM environments. For example, implementing a real-time anomaly detection model in Kafka Streams would require translating Python code into Java, slowing down pipeline performance, and requiring a complex initial setup.

Other stream processing engines (such as Flink and Spark Streaming) provide SQL interfaces too, but the key difference is a streaming database has its storage. Stream processing engines require a dedicated database to store input and output data. On the other hand, streaming databases utilize cloud-native storage to maintain materialized views and states, allowing data replication and independent storage scaling.

also, this knowledge applies to learning more about data engineering, as this field of software engineering relies heavily on the event-driven approach via tools like Spark, Flink, Kafka, etc.

Apache SeaTunnel is a data integration platform that offers the three pillars of data pipelines: sources, transforms, and sinks. It offers an abstract API over three possible engines: the Zeta engine from SeaTunnel or a wrapper around Apache Spark or Apache Flink. Be careful, as each engine comes with its own set of features.

Due to the technology transformation we want to do recently, we started to investigate Apache Iceberg. In addition, the data processing engine we use in house is Apache Flink, so it's only fair to look for an experimental environment that integrates Flink and Iceberg.

I am a PyTorch user I work in CV, I usually use the PyTorch models. However, I see people use timm in research papers to train their models I don't understand what it is timm is it a new framework like PyTorch? Further, when I click https://pypi.org/project/timm/ homepage it takes me to hugging face GitHub https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-image-models is there any connection between timm and hugging face many of my friends use hugging face but I also don't know about hugging face I use simple PyTorch and torchvision.models.

additionally, you might find the timm library handy for this sort of work.

This is still being pursued. Ross Wightmann's timm[0,1] package (now on Hugging Face) has done a lot of this. There's also a V2 of ConvNext[2]. Ross does write about this a lot on Twitter fwiw. I should also mention that there are still many transformer based networks that still beat convs. So there probably won't be a resurgence in convs until someone can show that there's a really strong reason for them. They have some advantages but they also might not be flexible enough for the long range tasks in segmentation and detection. But maybe they are.

FAIR definitely did great work with ConvNext, and I do hope to see more. There always needs to be people pushing unpopular paradigms.

I am doing Binary classification with a pre-trained EfficientNet tf_efficientnet_l2. I froze all weights during training and replaced the classifier with a custom trainable one that looks like:

In this post, I’m going to show you how you can pick from over 900+ SOTA models on TIMM, train them using best practices with Fastai, and deploy them on Android using Flutter.

The other thing is, try to find tricks to speed up your experiments (if not having done so already). The most obvious are mixed precision training, have your model train on a lower resolution input first and then increase the resolution later in the training, stochastic depth, and a bunch more stuffs. Look for implementations in https://github.com/rwightman/pytorch-image-models .
