What's Cool in C# 8 and .NET Core 3

You're missing out on some cool features if you're building applications in .NET Core 3 and not exploiting the new features in C# 8. Here's what Peter thinks are the ones you'll find most useful.

How To: Create a Streaming Data Loader for PyTorch

When training data won't fit into machine memory, a streaming data loader using an internal memory buffer can help. Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research shows how.

Neural Regression Using PyTorch: Model Accuracy

Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research explains how to evaluate, save and use a trained regression model, used to predict a single numeric value such as the annual revenue of a new restaurant based on variables such as menu prices, number of tables, location and so on.

Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research provides a full code sample and screenshots to explain how to create and use PyTorch Dataset and DataLoader objects, used to serve up training or test data in order to train a PyTorch neural network.

Working with Local Storage in a Blazor Progressive Web App

Thanks to Chris Sainty and Remi Bourgarel, working with local storage from a Blazor application running either in the browser or out of it is relatively easy. Testing your code can be equally easy but only if you set up support the real world of network connections.

Data Prep for Machine Learning: Splitting

Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research explains how to programmatically split a file of data into a training file and a test file, for use in a machine learning neural network for scenarios like predicting voting behavior from a file containing data about people such as sex, age, income and so on.

Firm Automates Converting Visual Basic Apps to .NET Core

Mobilize.Net, an "automated modernization" specialist headed by a former Microsoft corporate VP, has upgraded its Visual Basic upgrade tool to target .NET Core, the open source, cross-platform successor of the Windows-only .NET Framework.
