kandi X-RAY | voting Summary

voting is a Python library typically used in Institutions, Learning, Administration, Public Services applications. voting has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities and it has high support. However voting build file is not available. You can download it from GitHub.

This is a voting system simulator intended to simulate various methods used in proportional voting systems, in particular those that use a biproportional apportionment method for allocation of adjustment seats based on national outcomes. Such systems are common, such as in Iceland, Sweden, and Norway. M.L. Balinski and G. Demange have shown that only one method, the Alternating-Scaling method, exists that upholds the five axioms for proportionality in matrices. All other methods are heuristic simplifications that approach the optimal solution to varying degrees. This software implements the Alternating-Scaling method, and various other methods for comparison, and provides mechanisms to compare them. Biproportional allocation on matrices is a common issue that arises when you have multiple parties in multiple constituencies vying for a set number of seats which are pinned to different constituencies. The goal is to determine which parties get which seats in which constituencies. More generally this approach could be used to allocate limited resources to factories depending on their relative importance or needs, or to solve a number of other biproportional optimization problems.

            Django: How to autopopulate foreign key with the corresponding model class instance
            Asked 2022-Mar-24 at 13:12

            Working on my first Django project and could use some help. I have 2 models (Decisions, Votes) linked by the foreign key called 'decision'. The template, vote_list.html, shows the user a list of decisions (generated by other users) that are contained in Decisions. The user taps a particular decision and is re-directed to a second template to vote on options pertaining to that decision. How do I autopopulate the foreign key 'decision' in Votes with the corresponding instance of Decision so that the second template, vote_form.html, displays the options for the decision they tapped on? I assume it's coded in views.py (I commented an attempt below that doesn't work), but how might it be done? Thank you!

            I think this might solve your problem:

            1. Add decision field in the voting form. This will display an option to select for which decision you need to save this Vote for. If you don't want to allow users to change the Decision, you can mark the field as disabled. See this issue for more details on how to do that. Another alternative is to completely hide the field.

            How combine results from multiple models in Google Vertex AI?
            Asked 2022-Mar-22 at 12:01

            I have multiple models in Google Vertex AI and I want to create an endpoint to serve my predictions. I need to run aggregation algorithms, like the Voting algorithm on the output of my models. I have not found any ways of using the models together so that I can run the voting algorithms on the results. Do I have to create a new model, curl my existing models and then run my algorithms on the results?

            ANSWER

            Answered 2022-Mar-22 at 12:01

            There is no in-built provision to implement aggregation algorithms in Vertex AI. To curl results from the models then aggregate them, we would need to deploy all of them to individual endpoints. Instead, I would suggest the below method to deploy the models and the meta-model(aggregate model) to a single endpoint using custom containers for prediction. The custom container requirements can be found here.

            You can load the model artifacts from GCS into a custom container. If the same set of models are used (i.e) the input models to the meta-model do not change, you can package them inside the container to reduce load time. Then, a custom HTTP logic can be used to return the aggregation output like so. This is a sample custom flask server logic.

            Code for updating the each element(binary) of array on the basis of majority voting of past 5 elements(including that element also)
            Asked 2022-Mar-19 at 06:32

            I have an issue in writing a code for a problem related to the element updation of an array based on the majority voting of its past 5 elements including the element itself.

            Explanation: Suppose we have an array having elements in binary form. arr= [0 , 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1 , 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1]

            Now, according to our problem, we have to find the majority value of the past 5 elements including the number itself. So for the first 4 elements, the new updated value would be Zero, and then the value at the 4th index will be based on the majority voting of past elements that is [0, 1, 0, 0, 0]. So the majority value for index 4 is '0' as the count of '0' is greater than the count of '1' in a given window. Similarly, we have to do the same for all the elements.

            input arr= [0 , 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1 , 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1]

            Output arr=[0 , 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 , 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]

            Are there any binary values that don't have exact representation in decimal?
            Asked 2022-Jan-28 at 15:42

            We all know that there are values in decimal that don't have an exact representation in binary.

            For example the decimal value 0.1.

            In IEEE floating point format it can have different representations depending on how many bits you want to dedicate to representing a floating-point value.

            Single Precision (32-bits)

            • Hex: 0x3DCCCCCD
            • Binary: 1.10011001100110011001101×10-4
            • Decimal: 0.10000 00014 90116 11938 47656 25

            Double Precision (64-bits)

            • Hex: 0x3FB999999999999A
            • Binary: 1.1001100110011001100110011001100110011001100110011010×10-4
            • Decimal: 0.10000 00000 00000 00555 11151 23125 78270 21181 58340 45410 15625

            Extended Precision (80-bits)

            • Hex: 0x3FFBCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCD
            • Binary: 1.100110011001100110011001100110011001100110011001100110011001101×10-4

            In other words, the decimal value 0.1 does not have an exact representation in binary, it is endlessly repeating value:

            ANSWER

            Answered 2022-Jan-28 at 15:42

            No, every binary floating-point number has an exact representation in decimal.

            The numbers that can be represented exactly in binary floating-point (with a finite number of bits) are precisely those rational numbers which can be written with a denominator which is a power of 2, i.e. x = a/2n for integers a and n.

            The numbers that can be represented exactly in binary floating-point (with a finite number of digits) are precisely those rational numbers which can be written with a denominator which is a power of 10, i.e. y = b/10n.

            But every number from the first category is also in the second category, since a/2n = a•5n/10n.

            More generally, every number with an exact representation in base u will also have an exact representation in base v, if and only if every prime factor of u is also a prime factor of v. This will ensure that 1/un can be written as a/vm for some a and m.

            This explains the asymmetry: 2 is prime, and the prime factors of 10 are 2 and 5. So every prime factor of 2 is a prime factor of 10, but not the other way around.

            • is it using cosine distance?

            ANSWER

            Answered 2021-Dec-07 at 09:16

            Great questions, let me answer them one-by-one:

            What kind of KNN is it using?

            I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "what kind", but I think this will be answered through the remaining questions. One thing to keep in mind is that Weaviate's kNN classification makes use of the existing vector index for a particular class. So depending on whether you brought your own vectors or used a model for vectorization, the input parameters will determine what the classification runs on. For example, if you are using a text2vec module on a text property with the name description, then those descriptions will be used to find the closest matches.

            is it using simple voting or distance weighted voting?

            As of v1.8.0 it's simple voting. Distance weighted voting might be a nice addition for the future.

            is it using cosine distance?

            As mentioned in the first answer, whatever settings you chose for your class will also apply to the classification. As of v1.8.0 Weaviate typically uses cosine distance, but there are plans to add other distance metrics in the near future.

            does it use a method to find possible neighbors or use brute force to find all true nearest neighbors?

            Similarly to above, it follows the settings of the class. Typically it uses an HNSW approximate index. You can tune its parameters on a class level.

            what are winning/losing groups and how are they used to predict the class of a new vector?

            They are a tool to gain some insights into why a classification resulted in the way that it did. The winning group is the "group" of results that had the highest votes and therefore lead to the item being classified as such. The losing groups (there can be multiple) are alternative "groups" which didn't get the highest vote. Knowing each group might be a good insight to tweak k for future classifications.
