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.

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 ?

What is the most used library for AI in C++ ?
mlpack is a great library for machine learning in C++. It's very fast and not too much of a learning curve.

Ensmallen: A C++ Library for Efficient Numerical Optimization
This toolkit was originally part of the mlpack machine learning library (https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack) before it was split out into a separate, standalone effort.

PSA: You don't need fancy stuff to do good work.
Finally, when it comes to building models and making predictions, Python and R have a plethora of options available. Libraries like scikit-learn, statsmodels, and TensorFlowin Python, or caret, randomForest, and xgboostin R, provide powerful machine learning algorithms and statistical models that can be applied to a wide range of problems. What's more, these libraries are open-source and have extensive documentation and community support, making it easy to learn and apply new techniques without needing specialized training or expensive software licenses.

XGBoost Save and Load Error
You can find the problem outlined here: https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost/issues/5826. u/hcho3 diagnosed the problem and corrected it as of XGB version 1.2.0.

For XGBoost (in Amazon SageMaker), one of the hyper parameters is num_round, for number of rounds to train. Does this mean cross validation?

CS Internship Questions
By the way, most of the time XGBoost works just as well for projects, would not recommend applying deep learning to every single problem you come across, it's something Stanford CS really likes to showcase when it's well known (1) that sometimes "smaller"/less complex models can perform just as well or have their own interpretive advantages and (2) it is well known within ML and DS communities that deep learning does not perform as well with tabular datasets and using deep learning as a default to every problem is just poor practice. However, if you do (god forbid) get language, speech/audio, vision/imaging, or even time series models then deep learning as a baseline is not the worst idea.
