tensorflow - Principle of setting 'hash_bucket_size' parameter? -


question 1:

in wide_n_deep_tutorial.py, there hyper-parameter named hash_bucket_size both tf.feature_column.categorical_column_with_hash_bucket , tf.feature_column.crossed_column methods, , value hash_bucket_size=1000.

but why 1000? how set parameter ?

question 2: second question crossed_columns, is,

crossed_columns = [ tf.feature_column.crossed_column( ["education", "occupation"], hash_bucket_size=1000), tf.feature_column.crossed_column( [age_buckets, "education", "occupation"], hash_bucket_size=1000), tf.feature_column.crossed_column( ["native_country", "occupation"], hash_bucket_size=1000) ]

in wide_n_deep_tutorial.py,

why choose ["education", "occupation"], [age_buckets, "education", "occupation"] , ["native_country", "occupation"] crossed_columns, there rule of thumb ?

for hash_bucket

the general idea ideally result of hash functions should not result in collisions (otherwise you/the algorithm not able distinguish between 2 cases). hence 1000 in case 'just' value. if @ unique entries occupation , country (16 , 43) you'll see number high enough:

edb@lapelidb:/tmp$ cat  adult.data | cut -d , -f 7 | sort  | uniq -c  | wc -l 16 edb@lapelidb:/tmp$ cat  adult.data | cut -d , -f 14 | sort  | uniq -c  | wc -l 43

feature crossing

i think rule of thumb there crossing makes sense if combination of features has meaning. in example education , occupation linked. second 1 make sense define people 'junior engineer ph.d' vs 'senior cleaning staff without degree'. typical example see quite crossing of longitude , latitude since have more meaning individually.

android - InAppBilling registering BroadcastReceiver in AndroidManifest -

i'm implementing inapp billing in android app. works well, however, i'm trying decouple broadcast receiver activity manifest. suggestion in android's trivialdrive sample: // important: dynamically register broadcast messages updated purchases. // register receiver here instead of <receiver> in manifest // because call getpurchases() @ startup, therefore can ignore // broadcasts sent while app isn't running. // note: registering listener in activity bad idea, done here // because sample. regardless, receiver must registered after // iabhelper setup, before first call getpurchases(). currently there's class extends broadcastreceiver : public class iabbroadcastreceiver extends broadcastreceiver { /** * intent action receiver should filter for. */ public static final string action = "com.android.vending.billing.purchases_updated"; private final iabbroadcastlistener mlistener; public iabbroadcastreceiver(iabbroadcastlistener listener) { m...

python Tkinter Capturing keyboard events save as one single string -

is possible store keyboard events 1 string? code below stores 1 char , prints it. card reader or bar code reader, contains collection of character/ string not 1 character @ time. goal save char pressed text variable. from tkinter import * root = tk() def key(event): text= event.char text+= event.char print ("pressed", text) def callback(event): frame.focus_set() print ("clicked at", event.x, event.y) frame = frame(root, width=100, height=100) frame.bind("<key>", key) frame.bind("<button-1>", callback) frame.pack() root.mainloop() currently, creating text variable , everytime key() function gets called, , text stores last character typed. you can define text module level variable , , use module level text inside key function - text = '' def key(event): global text text+= event.char print("pressed", text)

sql server - Why does Linq-to-SQL add unnecessary COUNT()? -

here tables: create table customer ( cid int primary key, name varchar(32) ) create table ord ( oid int primary key, cid int foreign key references customer, address varchar(20) ) here's linq-to-sql statement: var aaa = c in db.customer select new { c, o = c.ord.tolist() }; and here's inexplicable query generated linq-to-sql: select [t0].[cid] [cid], [t0].[name] [name], [t1].[oid] [oid], [t1].[cid] [cid2], [t1].[address] [address], (select count(*) [dbo].[ord] [t2] [t2].[cid] = [t0].[cid]) [value] [dbo].[customer] [t0] left outer join [dbo].[ord] [t1] on [t1].[cid] = [t0].[cid] order [t0].[cid], [t1].[oid] i want understand how rid of count(*) part. it's entirely uncalled for! linq needs count(*) in order determine number of entries returned o = c.ord.tolist() .
