Cascading Style Sheets, usually known as CSS, is an essential piece of the advanced web development process. It is a very compelling HTML instrument that gives simple control over the format and introduction of web pages by separating content from design. In spite of the fact that CSS was introduced in the year 1996, it picked up standard ubiquity by the mid-2000s when prominent web browsers began supporting its features. The most recent variant, CSS3, [...]

Let’s start with a clear definition of a “single page application.” An SPA is a web application that is contained in a single HTML page that contains all scripts and resources required, and thus provides a user experience similar to a desktop app. Ideally, SPA loads all HTML, CSS, images, and required scripts such that all resources are dynamically available, and so that the page need not reload nor transfer control to another page. To [...]

Distinguishing Between AI and Machine Learning Clarifying the difference between machine learning and artificial intelligence reveals important distinctions regarding many of the popular buzzwords in the field today. Let’s eliminate the confusion by establishing a simple hierarchy of terms. We can say that AI is the parent field of machine learning: Artificial Intelligence Machine learning Deep Learning Neural Network Artificial intelligence is a vast field of theories and methods, and to be perfectly clear: despite [...]

Big dataset providers are now fantastically popular and growing exponentially every day. We’re going to evaluate a variety of datasets and Big Data providers ideal for machine learning and data mining research projects in order to illustrate the astonishing diversity of data freely available online today. We will also demonstrate a technique of machine learning with a code sample in Python which shows how to use one of the most popular Big Data hosts. Amazon [...]

Windows Media Video is a type of audio and video format that is used to digitally store audio and video information in a file. WMV is basically a container format developed by Microsoft that is used to hold several audio-video codecs developed by Microsoft and to run on Microsoft - supported operating systems and machines. The Society of Motion Pictures and Television Engineers (SMPTE) initially standardized the WMV format. Currently, several physical file formats, such [...]

MP4 file format is also used for video streaming over the Internet. MP4 file format is basically a container that holds audio and video files that are digitally encoded. MP4 file format has only one official file extension, i.e., .mp4. There are two unofficial file extensions, [...]

Popular technology writers inaccurately conflate machine learning and artificial intelligence. Machine learning code is certainly a crucial subset of artificial intelligence code but we cannot count machine learning alone as artificial intelligence. AI is a much broader field that involves expression beyond simply recognizing and mimicking human speech and identifying a person in a photo which really is the current state of ML. Deep learning projects are increasingly specialized techniques of ML which often combine [...]
