Hydra VS lambdo

I think there are a lot of similarly interesting paradigms that goes mostly unnoticed because of a lack of explanation and simple to use api's.

My personal favorite is "Functional hybrid modelling" - https://github.com/giorgidze/Hydra

It will return the sum of all values in column A. For large tables it will take some time to compute the result. Now assume we append a new record and want to get the new result. The traditional approach is execute this query again. A better approach is to process this new record only by adding its value in A to the result of the previous query. It is important in (stateful) stream processing.

Something similar is implemented in these libraries which however rely on a different data processing conception (alternative to map-reduce):

https://github.com/asavinov/lambdo - Feature engineering and machine learning: together at last!

I find this project quite interesting because sklearn has a good general design including data transformations and it does make sense to provide compatible functionality for Go.

Feature engineering in general is a hot topic and especially if features are not simple hard-coded transformations but rather can be learned from data. For example, I developed a toolkit intended for combining feature engineering and ML:
