As statistician Dennis Lindley famously said, "Inside every nonBayesian there is a Bayesian struggling to get out"; it would be safe to interpolate that Sharon McGrayne's interesting tale of trials and triumph of the Bayes Rule, or more accurately Bayes-Laplace-Price rule, is an excellent historical journey, which may help get your Bayesian out of the…
Having recently taken 70-480 Programming HTML5 and CSS 3 Exam, I think these notes I made may help those preparing for the exam.

For most researchers in the ever growing fields of probabilistic graphical models, belief networks, causal influence and probabilistic inference, ACM Turing award winner Dr. Judea Pearl and his seminary papers on causality are well-known and acknowledged. Representation and determination of Causality, the relationship between an event (the cause) and a second event (the effect), where…
I am planning to take the Certified ScrumMaster Training By Carlton Nettleton in Irvine,CA offered by Conscires Agile Practices in next couple of weeks. In lieu of reading up to it, a friend and co-worker David Lazar recently shared his links of all things agile and here it is as a public service announcement. An Agile Adoption and…
Recently attended Big Data Event @ Caltech. The topic was Big Data, Big Opportunities: Predicting the Future One Byte at a Time and the panel and speakers didn't disappoint. Following is the slidedeck and pictures from the event.
If you are scouring for an exploratory text in probabilistic reasoning, basic graph concepts, belief networks, graphical models, statistics for machine learning, learning inference, naïve Bayes, Markov models and machine learning concepts, look no further. Dr. Barber has done a praiseworthy job in describing key concepts in probabilistic modeling and probabilistic aspects of machine learning.…
