Reducing The Dimension With Principal Component Analysis

Principal Component Analysis finds sequences of linear combinations of the features. The first linear combination maximizes the variance of the features (subject to a unit constraint). Each of the following linear combinations maximizes the variance of the features in the subspace orthogonal to that...

Ways to circumvent Same-Origin Policy

As far as client-side JavaScript engines are concerned (those running inside a browser), there is no straightforward solution available for requesting content from sources other than the current domain. (By the way, this limitation does not exist in JavaScript-server tools such as Node JS.) However...
