Policy gradient likelihood ratio
We seek to maximise the expected reward:
\[\begin{align} J(\theta) &= \mathbb{E}_{\tau \sim P_{\theta}}\left[ R(\tau) \right] \\ &= \sum_{\tau} P_{\theta}(\tau) R(\tau) \\ \end{align}\]We can derive an expresion of the gradient of the above objective function which is independent of the state transition model \(p(s_{t+1}|s_t, u_t)\) and only depends on the policy.
\[\begin{align} \nabla_{\theta} J(\theta) &= \sum_{\tau} \nabla_{\theta} P_{\theta}(\tau) R(\tau) \\ &= \sum_{\tau} P_{\theta}(\tau) \frac{\nabla_{\theta} P_{\theta}(\tau)}{P_{\theta}(\tau)} R(\tau) \\ &= \sum_{\tau} P_{\theta}(\tau) \nabla_{\theta} \log P_{\theta}(\tau) R(\tau) \\ &= \sum_{\tau} P_{\theta}(\tau) \nabla_{\theta} \log \left( p(s_0)\prod_{t=0}^{H-1} p(s_{t+1}|s_t, u_t)\, \pi_{\theta}(u_t|s_t) \right) R(\tau) \\ &= \sum_{\tau} P_{\theta}(\tau) \nabla_{\theta} \left( \log p(s_0) + \sum_{t=0}^{H-1} \log p(s_{t+1}|s_t, u_t) + \log \pi_{\theta}(u_t|s_t) \right) R(\tau) \\ &= \sum_{\tau} P_{\theta}(\tau) \left(\sum_{t=0}^{H-1} \nabla_{\theta} \log \pi_{\theta}(u_t|s_t) \right) R(\tau)\\ &= \mathbb{E}_{\tau \sim P_{\theta}}\left[ \left(\sum_{t=0}^{H-1} \nabla_{\theta} \log \pi_{\theta}(u_t|s_t) \right) R(\tau) \right] \end{align}\]As this is an expaction over trajectories we can approximate the gradient by sampling trajectories from a fixed policy and state transition function:
\[\begin{align} \nabla_{\theta} J(\theta) &\approx \frac{1}{m} \sum_{i=1}^m \left(\sum_{t=0}^{H-1} \nabla_{\theta} \log \pi_{\theta}(u^{(i)}_t|s^{(i)}_t) \right) R(\tau^{(i)}) \end{align}\]Each gradient is of a trajectory is weighted by the reward of the full trajectory. An observation is that the current actions do not depend on past rewards.
\[\nabla_{\theta} J(\theta) \approx \frac{1}{m} \sum_{i=1}^m \left(\sum_{t=0}^{H-1} \nabla_{\theta} \log \pi_{\theta}(u^{(i)}_t|s^{(i)}_t) \left[ \sum_{k=t}^{H-1} r(s^{(i)}_k, u^{(i)}_k) \right] \right)\]This as an effect of reducing the variance of the gradients’ estimate.


--- layout: post authors: ["Greg Wilson"] title: "Building Better Teachers" date: 2014-09-04 time: "13:00:00" tags: ["Community", "Opinion", "Teaching"] favorite: true ---
Some books are intrinsically great. (I've read Going Postal half a dozen times, and enjoyed it just as much at each encounter.) Other books feel great because they hit you at the right time. Elizabeth Green's Building a Better Teacher is one of those: in a little over 300 pages, she takes a bunch of things I've been worrying about for the last two years and assembles them into a coherent whole. The end result is a road map of sorts for making our teaching more effective; the problem is, I don't know if it's a path we can actually follow.
BaBT's thesis is simple. Most people assume that great teachers are born, not made. From politicians to researchers and teachers themselves, most of us speak and act as if there's a gene for teaching that someone either has or doesn't. Most reforms are therefore designed to find and promote those who can and eliminate those who can't. The problem is, this assumption is wrong, so educational reforms based on it are (mostly) destined to fail. Reforms based on changing the culture of teaching would have a greater chance of succeeding, but as with any cultural change, they would require the kind of long-term commitment that our society doesn't seem to be very good at.
The book is written as a history of the people who have put that puzzle together in the US, including Nate Gage and Lee Shulman in the 1960s and 1970s, Deborah Ball, Magdalene Lampert, and others at Michigan State in the 1980s and 1990s, and educational entrepreneurs like Doug Lemov today. Its core begins with a discussion of what James Stigler discovered during a visit to Japan in the early 1990s:
Some American teachers called their pattern "I, We, You": After checking homework, teachers announced the day's topic, demonstrating a new procedure (I)... Then they led the class in trying out a sample problem together (We)... Finally, they let students work through similar problems on their own, usually by silently making their way through a worksheet (You)...
The Japanese teachers, meanwhile, turned "I, We, You" inside out. You might call their version "You, Y'all, We." They began not with an introduction, but a single problem that students spent ten or twenty minutes working through alone (You)... While the students worked, the teacher wove through the students' desks, studying what they came up with and taking notes to remember who had which idea. Sometimes the teacher then deployed the students to discuss the problem in small groups (Y'all). Next, the teacher brought them back to the whole group, asking students to present their different ideas for how to solve the problem on the chalkboard... Finally, the teacher led a discussion, guiding students to a shared conclusion (We).
It's tempting to think that this particular teaching technique is Japan's secret sauce: tempting, but wrong. The actual key is revealed in the description of Akihiko Takahashi's work. In 1991, he visited the United States in a vain attempt to find the classrooms described a decade earlier in a report by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM). He couldn't find them. Instead, he found that American teachers met once a year (if that) to exchange ideas about teaching, compared to the weekly or even daily meetings he was used to. What was worse:
The teachers described lessons they gave and things students said, but they did not see the practices. When it came to observing actual lessons‐watching each other teach—they simply had no opportunity... They had, he realized, no jugyokenkyu. Translated literally as "lesson study", jugyokenkyu is a bucket of practices that Japanese teachers use to hone their craft, from observing each other at work to discussing the lesson afterward to studying curriculum materials with colleagues. The practice is so pervasive in Japanese schools that it is...effectively invisible.
And here lay the answer to [Akihiko's] puzzle. Of course the American teachers' work fell short of the model set by their best thinkers... Without jugyokenkyu, his own classes would have been equally drab. Without jugyokenkyu, how could you even teach?
So what does jugyokenkyu look like in practice?
In order to graduate, education majors not only had to watch their assigned master teacher work, they had to effectively replace him, installing themselves in his classroom first as observers and then, by the third week, as a wobbly...approximation of the teacher himself. It worked like a kind of teaching relay. Each trainee took a subject, planning five days' worth of lessons... [and then] each took a day.  Afterward, everyone—the teacher, the college students, and sometimes even another outside observer—would sit around a formal table to talk about what they saw.
[Trainees] stayed in...class until the students left at 3:00 pm, and they didn't leave the school until they'd finished discussing the day's events, usually around eight o'clock. They talked about what [the master teacher] had done, but they spent more time poring over how the students had responded: what they wrote in their notes; the ideas they came up with, right and wrong; the architecture of the group discussion. The rest of the night was devoted to planning...
...By the time he arrived in [the US], [Akihiko had] become...famous... giving public lessons that attracted hundreds, and, in one case, an audience of a thousand. He had a seemingly magical effect on children... But Akihiko knew he was no virtuoso. "It is not only me," he always said... "Many people." After all, it was his mentor...who had taught him the new approach to teaching... And [he] had crafted the approach along with the other math teachers in [his ward] and beyond. Together, the group met regularly to discuss their plans for teaching... [At] the end of a discussion, they'd invite each other to their classrooms to study the results. In retrospect, this was the most important lesson: not how to give a lesson, but how to study teaching, using the cycle of jugyokenkyu to put...work under a microscope and improve it.
Putting work under a microscope in order to improve it is commonplace in sports and music. A professional musician, for example, would dissect half a dozen different recordings of "Body and Soul" or "Yesterday" before performing it. They would also expect to get feedback from fellow musicians during practice and after performances. Many other disciplines work this way too. The Japanese drew inspiration from Deming's ideas on continuous improvement in manufacturing, while the adoption of code review over the last 15 years has, in my opinion, done more to improve everyday programming than any number of books or websites.
But this kind of feedback isn't part of teaching culture in North America. Here, what happens in the classroom stays in the classroom: teachers don't watch each other's lessons on a regular basis, so they can't borrow each other's good ideas. The result is that every teacher has to invent teaching on their own. They may get lesson plans and assignments from colleagues, the school board, a textbook publisher, or the Internet, but each teacher has to figure out on their own how to combine that with the theory they've learned in ed school to deliver an actual lesson in an actual classroom for actual students.
Which is, to my embarrassment, a pretty accurate description of what Software Carpentry instructors have to do as well. The training course that I run covers the basics of educational psychology and instructional design, but doesn't walk trainees through our existing material or how to deliver it. That oversight is completely my fault, and doubly embarrassing given how many people have asked me to do precisely that.
Another thing I've realized is that there's no longer a "reference implementation" for Software Carpentry. Eighteen months ago, I had taught with almost everyone who was teaching for us. Today, that fraction is hovering around a third, and is inevitably going to continue to drop. I don't think my way is the only right way, or even the best way, but at least it was a single way that everyone used to have in common. It isn't any more, which I think is part of the reason there are growing disagreements over what to teach and how to teach it.
My third realization is that I haven't been asking instructors the right questions about our bootcamps. About half of them fill in a short survey when they're done teaching, but it doesn't ask, "How far did you get with each topic?" or, "What worked really well or really poorly?" People occasionally post unsolicited answers to these questions on the blog or discussion list, but I haven't systematically synthesized that material, which means we don't really know how our lessons are working from the instructors' point of view.
If we were all at the same university, or even in the same state or province, we could try fixing all this with some jugyokenkyu. Unfortunately, what's described in BaBT depends on frequent, time-consuming, high-bandwidth interaction, but our instructors only teach a couple of times a year as a sideline to their real work. Outside the days they're actually teaching, they're scattered across six continents, trying to catch up on all the work they pushed aside to go run a bootcamp. If we can find funding for in-person meetups, they'd be good for community-building as well as teaching improvement, but that's going to take months to arrange (at least).
So here's what I'd like to try right now. Every second week (when the instructor trainees aren't having their meeting) we will run a couple of hour-long sessions in which a couple of people who have recently taught bootcamps are invited to talk through what they did and how it went. The emphasis will be on specifics: not, "Should we be teaching principles or specific tools?" but, "The first example of how to write a function in Python left everyone cold," or, "Everybody found the early discussion of types bewildering: we should delay it or eliminate it." People who haven't taught recently (or haven't yet taught at all) would be encouraged to join in, but the aim would be to figure out where we really are and how to make things better.
Separately, we can start recording snippets of our teaching and posting them so that other instructors can learn from them and comment on them. We can do this using standard video sharing sites, or adopt something like SmarterCookie or Edthena (which I mentioned back in February). The emphasis here would be "snippets": Edthena and SmarterCookie both allow people to upload only 5-10 minutes at a time, since that's all most other people will watch. As a fringe benefit, this would also let us build up a "best of" archive. I don't think learners would be able to stitch together a complete bootcamp by watching these, but I'd be happy to be proved wrong...
Discussion sessions and video recordings will take time, though, and we're already asking for a lot of that from our instructors. As John Blischak said in a comment on the first draft of this post:
Preparing and running a bootcamp is already an exhausting and time-consuming endeavour. Then post-bootcamp we also want them to contribute back improvements to the lesson materials. Trying to schedule a meeting within a week or two after the bootcamp is just one more thing as they try to catch back up on their work.
His counter-proposal is to discuss teaching by email:
I want to increase the communication of our collective experiences. I think this could be accomplished by encouraging more discussion of teaching questions on the discuss list. This allows more people to participate in the discussion (or just read along) in a distributed fashion without committing an hour during the work day. Then the discussions that happen that month could be summarized and discussed at the weekly lab meeting.
Like John, I find asynchronous when-you-can email a lot easier to manage than scheduled meetings. After last month's kerfuffle on the mailing list, though, several people made it clear that they aren't fond of forums, IRC, and mailing lists, and would rather interact directly. Since we understand the strengths and weaknesses of the former, I'd like to give chats a try to see if they'll bring in people we otherwise wouldn't hear from. We'll take notes and post them to the mailing list and blog for those who can't attend, and hopefully some happy combination will emerge.
The first rule of engineering is "Only change one thing at a time." We keep breaking that: we keep trying to change how we teach as well as changing how scientists use computers in their research. It's a risky strategy, but, I think, a necessary one. I'd be grateful for your thoughts.

--- title: Sample Java Project layout: post tags: [java, tutorial] uuid: e92e3985-6680-335c-2c69-dc95781f42bd ---
Here's a little on-going project I put together recently. It's mostly for my own future reference, but perhaps someone else may find it useful.
git clone git://github.com/skeeto/sample-java-project.git
If you couldn't guess already, I'm strongly against tying a project's development to a particular IDE. It happens too much: someone starts the project by firing up their favorite IDE, clicking "Create new project", and checks in whatever it spits out. It usually creates a build system integrated tightly into that particular IDE. At work I've seen it happen on two different large Java projects. There are some ways around it, like maintaining two build systems side-by-side, but it's not very pretty. Sometimes the Java IDE can spit out some Ant build files for the sake of continuous integration, but it remains a second-class citizen for development.
I prefer the other direction: start with a standalone build system, then stick your own development environment on top of that. Each developer picks and is responsible for whatever IDE or editor they want, with the standalone build system providing the canonical build (and, in my experience, if you must use an IDE, NetBeans has the smoothest integration with Ant). So in the case of Java, this means setting up an Ant-based build.
I've said before that I like the Java platform, I just find the primary language disappointing. Similarly, I like Ant, I just find the build script language disappointing (XML). It seems other people like it too, at least for Java development, because I haven't been able to find any serious criticisms of it outside of hating the XML (notice the first result in that search is written by someone who is Doing It All Wrong). I love that it works on filesets and not files. It's like getting atomic commits for my build system. If I add a new source file to my project I don't need to adjust the Ant build script in any way.
One downside of Ant is that, while it's commonly used in a very
standard way, it doesn't guide you in that direction or provide
special shortcuts to make the common cases easier. It's typical to
have a src/
directory containing all your source and
a build/
directory, created by Ant, that contains all the
built and generated files. With Ant you basically say, "Compile these
sources to here, then jar that directory up." Ant alone doesn't make
this very obvious. Give it to someone standed on a desert island and I
bet they won't derive the same best practice as the rest of the world.
Take make
, for example. Because building object files
from source is so common, (depending on the implementation) it has
built-in rules for it. This is all you need to say,
and make
knows how to do the rest.
Same for linking, it's so common you don't have to type anything more than necessary.
{% highlight make %} program : main.o common.o file.o {% endhighlight %}It guides you in creating good Makefiles. If you want to learn the best practice for Ant, you have to either buy a book on Ant or look at what lots of other people are doing. And so I provide my sample-java-project for this exact purpose.
You can use that as a skeleton when creating your own project, and you'll barely have to customize the build file. It's a big mass of boilerplate, the kind of stuff that Ant should have built-in by default. I'll be expanding it over time as I learn more about how to effectively use Ant.

If users keep data in TensorFlow Example format, they need to call tf$parse_example
with a proper feature spec. There are two main things that this utility
helps:
Users need to combine parsing spec of features with labels and
weights (if any) since they are all parsed from same tf$Example
instance.
This utility combines these specs.
It is difficult to map expected label by
a classifier such as dnn_classifier
to corresponding tf$parse_example
spec.
This utility encodes it by getting related information from users (key,

David Pipe: Ramses will relish every drop of rain that falls
by Bill EsdaileAFTER a summer break it’s great to be back with my regular weekly column, and I can start with the news that we are already up and running with our new City AM syndicate horse.
COLLINGWOOD COURT made a pleasing enough start for us at Ascot a fortnight ago in what was a pretty hot bumper.
Tom [Scudamore] was pleased with him and feels he will come on plenty for the run.
I guess it will be hurdles for him next time and I’m hoping he has a bright future.
It was lovely to meet a few of you at the races and I look forward to getting to know a lot more over the coming weeks and months.
We are also in the process of looking out for a second horse for the syndicate, so if you are interested in getting involved do get in touch.
The National Hunt season supposedly really gets going with this weekend’s November Meeting at Cheltenham, so it’s a real shame that all this rain has caused this afternoon’s first day to be abandoned.
I had declared four runners, but we will have to think up other plans for them.
That said, WARTHOG will now join EAMON AN CNOIC in tomorrow’s feature, the BetVictor Gold Cup (2.25pm).
Both will love all this rain and I have genuine grounds to be optimistic about both of them.
Warthog lost his way a little last term but goes well fresh and sneaks in here off a light weight.
As for Eamon An Cnoic, he ran a cracker behind favourite Siruh Du Lac when fourth in the Festival Plate.
I’m hoping the swing at the weights will get us closer to him, although he’s only a young horse and I’m conscious he will improve again too.
Our fella often shapes like this trip stretches him, but he ran well for a long way in the 3m1f handicap here at the Festival a couple of years ago so that shouldn’t be a problem.
Elsewhere tomorrow, I’m looking forward to seeing RAMSES DE TEILLEE back out in the staying handicap (1.50pm).
He is another who will relish all this rain and should go well despite having to shoulder a big weight.
The ground was pretty bad when he won over hurdles here last time and it’s nice to come here with a decent run under his belt.
Another one of mine to keep an eye on tomorrow is REMASTERED who will probably run in the 2m5f handicap hurdle (3.30pm).
Regular followers of this column will know that he is a horse I have always held in high regard and both the trip and ground should be spot on for him.
His recent run at Chepstow should have blown the cobwebs away and I’m hoping he will run a decent race.

Ohio amusement park auctions unwanted historical items
SANDUSKY, Ohio (AP) - An Ohio amusement park that will celebrate its 150th anniversary next year auctioned a collection of historical items it had amassed over the years, including an arcade game from the 1930s and a horse-drawn steam pumping engine.
Many of the items from Cedar Point had been on display for decades at the amusement park’s Town Hall Museum, but the items don’t have ties to the park itself or fit into its plans to renovate the museum, said spokesman Tony Clark.
An American LaFrance steam fire pumper built in 1904 brought $120,000 from an anonymous phone bidder at the auction Monday, the Akron Beacon Journal reported. Cedar Point restored the engine in 1971.
A Cleveland-area man who bought a coin-operated game called “Grandmother’s Predictions Machine” for $21,000 said it had a special connection to his family.
Rich Gent said the arcade game, dating back from 1929 to 1932, was built by a company once owned by his great-grandfather’s brother.
“We thought it was important to get this piece of family history,” he said. “This is pretty exciting.”
Among the other items sold were a replica Star Trek Starfleet Command captain’s chair, a few park benches and a full-size apothecary display from a store in Crestline.
The counter that originally sat inside the Charles E. Trory’s Drug Store will be put on display at a museum in Crawford County.
Auctioneer Deba Gray said there was high interest because of the connection to Cedar Point and everyone would love to “own a piece of their childhood.”

In the past, I've joked that I'm the ultimate Minority: a Short Thick Queer Blaxican Lesbian, from a low-income family. Surely there are prividges I still have, like being an able-bodied, CIS-gendered US citizen with a college-education. Holding so many identities with you can be a complicated mix of pride and fear, and learning about Stereotype Threat helps illustrate some ways those fears have threatened to keep me back.
Stereotype Threat
What is Stereotype Threat?
From the interwebs:
Stereotype threat refers to being at risk of confirming, as self-characteristic, a negative stereotype about one's group (Steele & Aronson, 1995). This term was first used by Steele and Aronson (1995) who showed in several experiments that Black college freshmen and sophomores performed more poorly on standardized tests than White students when their race was emphasized. When race was not emphasized, however, Black students performed better and equivalently with White students. The results showed that performance in academic contexts can be harmed by the awareness that one's behavior might be viewed through the lens of racial stereotypes.
How does Stereotype Threat work?
Stereotype Threat is something just about anyone can experience. In the above example, it was black colllege freshman, but if anyone was in an environment that they were in fear of being negatively stereotyped (be they any race, creed, gender, sexuality, ability etc), you'll find Stereotype Threat. Some symptoms I resonated with was the immediate need to count other people in the room, and see if I was "the only one". Another symptom is negative self-talk, or the feeling like I'm doomed to ail, taking extra energy away from the task at hand. In some studies, even "positive reinforcement" can hinder performance, by driving home the idea that your success or your step towards success is not the norm for "people like you". The other term that came up was "Imposter Syndrome" which I often feel in my work, feeling as if I haven't accomplished or learned "enough" to be able to belong.
What are consequences of Stereotype Threat?
Some of the consequences include extra stress, anxiety, depression, impeded performance, self-defeating tasks like less effort, and in some cases Overcompensating for the stereotype to thwart the threat. One example from my recent work at DBC involves overcompensating. Sometimes, when I pair with men, I feel like I need to make sure I voice my opinions strongly, and keep up with the challenge to show my intelligence, so as to keep from the "quiet woman" stereotype from getting in the way of me succeeding at DBC. After one of my GPS sessions, I got feedback from the guide that I was dominating the conversation with my pair, and I should be more cognizant with soft-spoken partners. It was a shock to hear, because in my mind, I was trying to show my competency in the work, and I ended up dominating the conversation.
Coping with Stereotype Threat
How do you cope with Stereotype Threat?
Some of the ways I've been combatting Stereotype threat all stem from learning more about self-care. I find ways to talk myself out of negative self-talk, write myself love letters when I'm feeling low or uninspired in my work, think about my accomplishments thus far, and remind myself what brings me to where I am in my life: my family, my community, and my ambition to Git It!
What also helps me is getting feedback and encouragement from my peers, my community, and my family. PLEASE keep giving me these things, by way of reaching out and having conversations aboout how things are going; READ my posts! Ask me questions! Share pride in my work, give me pointers, and encourage me to keep going!
What are some ways to combat Stereotype Threat?
Besides my own tactics above, There are examples that those who did research studies on Stereotype Threat that help combat it. There was a study that showed that focusing on one value can affect Stereotype Threat positively.I think not only being able to find "your people" (whoever they may be, your fellow rockers, fellow queerfolk, fellow grammar-snobs, etc.) to decompress, and to feel supported, but also to understand your individualism, you're not everyone, you're not just the identities you are made from, but you are individually you from what you've built wiht your own mind, heart, soul and hands.
What can others do to help?
It's a complicated road, but we can all help alleviate others from Stereotype threat!
- Leadership can focus on achievement and giving everyone the same standards.
- Consider the impact your words, actions, gestures, etc. have on others; even your mere presence, and make places welcoming and accessible.
- Listen to yourself, and listen to others knowing they are experts in their own experience.
- Understand that Stereotype has a lot to do with belonging, be aware that others are looking for cues to indicate that they can really be themselves, and thrive.

She's So Lovely (1997)
Reviewed by: Ken Varnum
Ranking: ** (out of 5)
Starring: Sean Penn, Robin Wright Penn, Harry Dean Stanton, John Travolta, Debi Mazar
Directed by: Nick Cassavetes
This movie about two dysfunctional families never really gets off the ground, despite some good performances from a basically competent cast. Eddie (Sean Penn) and Maureen (Robin Wright Penn) are a not-so-happily married couple down on their luck. Living in rented rooms in the seedier part of an unnamed city, they spend what little income they have at the local bar, owned by Shorty (Stanton), Eddie's best friend, and his wife Georgie (Mazar). Maureen and Eddie share an odd relationship marked by Eddie's frequent disappearances. On his return, he promises her the world and professes his undying love. Their manic reunions all too soon lead to new lows, as Eddie disappears again. Like a junky craving the next high, Maureen suffers through the lows to reach the next high. Their relationship is further complicated by Maureen's pregnancy. She wants the baby and the father, but deep down seems to sense the inevitability of losing the latter.
During one of Eddie's absences, Maureen is attacked by Kiefer, her neighbor, who gets her drunk (with her cooperation) and then insists on intimacy. She leaves badly bruised and in fear of what Eddie might do -- not to her, but to Kiefer. She lies about what happens to ensure that no harm will come to Eddie as the result of his inevitable rage. He lashes out as she expects, and ends up in an institution for what he believes to be 3 months -- but in reality is 10 years.
During this decade, Maureen divorces Eddie and remarries a more solid and reliable individual, Joey (Travolta, in a small role). Her life falls apart again when Eddie is released from the institution and comes to find her. Joey insists on bringing Eddie into his home and making his wife choose between her husband (and father of two children) and stability (Joey makes a good living, drives a Cadillac, and they live in a large house in the suburbs) and the love of her previous life. She chooses her past, and sacrifices not only her new life but her old (by giving up her and Eddie's daughter to Joey). But the Eddie that she knew is gone, replaced by a mere shell of the man he was. Maureen is herself a mere shell, more an automaton than a woman -- as if she had gone through whatever therapy and treatment Eddie was given along with him. Perhaps these two really do need each other and can find happiness (or maybe the lack of sadness) together, but the movie's denouement was not convincing.

Wanting to expand my knowledge in the world of program languages, and build programs & apps.


kaijuu is a Windows context menu shell extension. The context menu is the list you see when you right-click on a file or folder. kaijuu allows you to add your own custom actions to this menu.
Think of opening an unknown file type: Windows will ask you to associate a program with the file type. From there forward, double-clicking the file will open the file with that program.
kaijuu is a far more powerful version of this same concept. With kaijuu, you can assign as many rules as you want. You can apply the same rule to multiple file patterns. You can have more complex pattern matching for names. You can apply rules to folders. You can specify rules about how to handle single-file versus multi-file selection. You can send custom command-line parameters to the program. You can have rules on a per-user basis. And you can do all of this from an easy-to-use GUI.
If you wish to compile kaijuu, you will need to install TDM-GCC. Visual Studio does not support some of the features used in kaijuu's source code.
kaijuu has been tested only on 64-bit Windows. MinGW support for 32-bit Windows is somewhat poor, so it will take some effort to prepare a 32-bit MinGW installation to compile kaijuu.
Place the appropriate kaijuu EXE and DLL files into a folder where you intend to keep them. The DLL cannot be moved after installation, otherwise Explorer will not be able to locate the shell extension. C:\Program Files\kaijuu would be a recommended location.
Now run the kaijuu EXE, and click on Install. You must have administrator access to use the kaijuu EXE, as this is necessary to install and uninstall shell extensions.
To remove or upgrade kaijuu, you must first uninstall the shell extension. Run the kaijuu EXE, and click on Uninstall. You must now close all open instances of Windows Explorer, in order for the DLL to be completely unloaded. In the worst case, restart the computer.
If you intend to upgrade kaijuu, I recommend using the Reset button to erase all saved settings. There is no guarantee of backward-compatibility between kaijuu revisions.
kaijuu's rules are stored in the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Kaijuu
The kaijuu EXE not only handles installation and removal, it also handles modifying the rules.
kaijuu stores a unique list of rules for every user account. You are free to modify rules even while kaijuu is installed. They will take immediate effect.
The main interface lists all rules, sorted in order of their priority. For instance, if two rules match and both are marked as the default action; the item higher in the list will be marked as the default. You can also quickly determine if the extension is currently installed.
Append will add new rules, Modify will edit an existing rule, Move Up and Move Down can be used to modify the priority ordering, and Remove will delete the selected rule.
Import will overwrite all rules with ones imported from a file named "rules.bml", Export will export all rules to "rules.bml", and Reset will delete all rules.
You can have a maximum of 1000 rules. You will see every matched rule in the context menu when you right-click on files or folders.
Name is the string that will show up in the context menu. It would be wise to name the rule something like "Open with X" or "Edit with Y"
Pattern is a semicolon-separated list of patterns to test the selected file or folder names against. You must specify one or more patterns.
Example 1: *.txt;*.doc will match anything ending in .txt or in .doc.
Example 2: * will match everything always.
Example 3: Manifest will only match items named Manifest.
Example 4: *.?? will match any two-letter extension, such as .gb
Command is the program to be executed when a rule is activated. You can use the Select button to quickly navigate to a program to use.Note the way the program name is typically quoted, for instance "c:\my program.exe". If there is a space in the path, this is required to differentiate the program name from its arguments. If you were to type your own rule, you could take advantage of two things: first, the PATH command-line variable allows specifying system programs without the full path. For instance, "cmd" will invoke the command-prompt; and second, if the program path contains no spaces, the quotes are no longer necessary. So you could say cmd to invoke the command-prompt.
After the program name, you can specify the program arguments. kaijuu has many special identifiers built-in, that are replaced with the file and/or folder names that were selected. When using the Select button, {file} is automatically appended for convenience, which should be sufficient for most cases. You can of course customize the rule afterward with the following identifiers:
{name} = c:\path\file.txt {pathname} = c:\path {filename} = file.txt {basename} = file {extension} = txt {path} = "c:\path" {file} = "c:\path\file.txt" {paths} = "c:\path1" "c:\path2" {files} = "c:\path1\file1.txt" "c:\path2\file2.txt"
Note that if you use the first group, you must add your own quotes around the identifiers, eg notepad "{name}".
If the command includes {files} or {paths} within the string, then kaijuu will match this rule when one or more files are selected. If neither of these patterns are found, then kaijuu will only check the rule if a single file is selected.
You will want to use {file} and {path} for programs that can only open a single item a a time; and {files} and {paths} for programs that can open multiple items at the same time, such as music players.
Default Action, when checked, will mark this rule as the default action to take when a file or folder is double-clicked on.
Match Files will allow selections with files in them to be valid. If a file is selected without this checked, the rule will fail.
Match Folders will allow selections with folders in them to be valid. If a file is selected without this checked, the rule will fail.
Assign will create the new rule or modify an existing rule, depending upon which button you clicked from the main window.
Caution: be very careful when using a pattern of * along with Default Action checked. For instance, you could find that double-clicking executables no longer opens then, and requires you to use the right-click context menu. In the worst case, you will have to reboot into safe mode and delete the rule or kaijuu DLL.
| Name | Default | Match | Pattern | Command |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Open terminal here | No | Folders | * | cmd /k cd /d {path} |
| Make | Yes | Files | GNUmakefile | mingw32-make |

Grant the Polite Guy and the BBQs from the Inside Out
Today I would like to write about Grant (don’t tell him, haha) and the BBQs for the Homeless and Others in Need. Grant’s vision of a better world inspires me so much to help organize the BBQs, and I feel very humbled having been asked by him to do it and to write in this blog with him. Having been homeless himself for a year and a half, he knows what it’s like: very unpleasant, to put it nicely.

As explained in the brief intro to pruta
, the sq.curate
function is primarily designed to curate taxonomic datasets using gbif
. Alto gbif
is extremely fast and efficient, it is largely designed to deal with animals and plants. If you’re interested in using the gbif
backbone for curating sequence regardless of the kingdom use the following approach:
taxonomy.retrieve(species_names=c("Felis_catus", "PREDICTED:_Vulpes",
"Phoca_largha", "PREDICTED:_Phoca" ,
"PREDICTED:_Manis" , "Felis_silvestris" , "Felis_nigripes"),
database='gbif', kingdom=NULL)
Note that the kingdom
argument is set to NULL
. However, as indicated in the first vignette, gbif
is efficient for retrieving accurate taxonomy when we provide details on the kingdom
. Given that all the species we’re interested in are animals, we could just use:
taxonomy.retrieve(species_names=c("Felis_catus", "PREDICTED:_Vulpes",
"Phoca_largha", "PREDICTED:_Phoca" ,
"PREDICTED:_Manis" , "Felis_silvestris" , "Felis_nigripes"),
database='gbif', kingdom='animals')
We could also do the same for plants by using plants
instead of animals
in the kingdom
argument. Now, what if we were interested in following other databases to retrieve taxonomic information for the species in our database? The latest version of phruta
allow users to select the desired database. The databases follow the taxize::classification
function. Options are: ncbi
, itis
, eol
, tropicos
, nbn
, worms
, natserv
, bold
, wiki
, and pow
. Please select only one. Note that the gbif
option in taxize::classification
is replaced by the internal gbif
in phruta
.
Now, let’s assume that we were interested in curating our database using itis
:
taxonomy.retrieve(species_names=c("Felis_catus", "PREDICTED:_Vulpes",
"Phoca_largha", "PREDICTED:_Phoca" ,
"PREDICTED:_Manis" , "Felis_silvestris" , "Felis_nigripes"),
database='itis')
Using alternative databases is sometimes desirable. Please make sure you review which the best database is for your target group is before selecting one.
phruta
For different reasons, phylogenetic analyses sometimes require of tree constraints. phruta
can automatically generate trees in accordance to taxonomy and a backbone topology. We divide constraint trees into two: (1) ingroup+outgroup and (2) particular clades.
In this constraint type, phruta
will create monophyletic groups for each of the taxonomic groups in the database (for selected target columns). Finally, it will generate tree with the same topology provided in the Topology
argument. The user will provide the species names of the outgroup taxa as a vector of string that should fully match the names in the taxonomy file.
tree.constraint(
taxonomy_folder = "1.CuratedSequences",
targetColumns = c("kingdom", "phylum", "class", "order",
"family", "genus", "species_names"),
Topology = "((ingroup), outgroup);",
outgroup = "Manis_pentadactyla"
)
In this constraint type, phruta
will create a constraint tree for particular clades. For instance, let’s assume that we only need to create a tree constraining the monophyly within two genera and their sister relationships:
tree.constraint( taxonomy_folder = "1.CuratedSequences",
targetColumns = c("kingdom", "phylum", "class",
"order", "family", "genus", "species_names"),
Topology = "((Felis), (Phoca));"
)
Note that the key aspect in here is the Topology
argument. It is a newick tree.
phruta
With the current version of phruta
, users are able to run PartitionFinder v1 within R. For this, users should provide the name of the folder where the alignments are stored, a particular pattern in the file names ( masked
in our case), and which models will be run in PartitionFinder. This function will download PartitionFinder, generate the input files, and run it all within R. The output files will be in a new folder within the working directory.
sq.partitionfinderv1(folderAlignments = "2.Alignments",
FilePatterns = "Masked",
models = "all"
)
Unfortunately, the output files are not integrated with the current phruta
pipeline. This will be part of a new release. However, users can still perform gene-based partitioned analyses within RAxML
or can use PartitionFinder’s output files to inform their own analyses outside phruta
.
Users can now run partitioned analyses in RAxML
within phruta
. This approach is implemented by setting the partitioned
argument in tree.raxml
to TRUE
. For now, partitions are based on the genes are being analyzed. The same model is used to analyze each partition. More details on partitioned analyses can be customized by passing arguments in ips::raxml
.
tree.raxml(folder = "2.Alignments", FilePatterns = "Masked",
raxml_exec = "raxmlHPC", Bootstrap = 100,
outgroup = "Manis_pentadactyla",
partitioned=T
)
phruta
can help users run RogueNaRok
implemented in the Rogue
R package. Users can then examine whether rogue taxa should be excluded from the analyses. tree.roguetaxa
uses the bootstrap trees generated using the tree.raxml
function along with the associated best tree to identify rogue taxa.
tree.roguetaxa(folder = "3.Phylogeny")


This well-sheltered port lies about 5nm NW of Concarneau and is sited at the head of a deep inlet to the east of the Odet River, in Benodet Bay.
Position 47° 53' 29" N, 03° 58'14"W (river entrance)
The large marina here offers good shelter, and is a good place to get work done and a secure place to leave the boat. The marina cannot be entered at low tide, but there are waiting buoys in the river.
The nearest town is a 1 mile walk over the causeway to La Foret-Fouesnant.
This is a good place to over-winter the boat.

Wait, what ? Seriously ? Yes, seriously.
If it goes well you’re reading this on my Jekyll-generated static blog (or perhaps something else). In that case, you should know that this post and the ones before it were generated by Hakyll. It was fun, I made my point, but I have a general be-more-practical-than-ideological theme going in my life, and this is part of that.

The Microsoft Edge Team has created performance examples that are useful for practicing analysis techniques.
The following web site is a blog that creates a tag section on the fly in JavaScript. It does so in an exceptionally inefficient manner that is intended to provide a useful example for practicing the use of various tools for analyzing performance. There are multiple layers that can be optimized to improve this example.
Demo these performance issues:

Here’s a quick how-to for setting up a Pihole server at home.
First, you need to setup a VM/raspberrypi to host the Pihole.
The VM I’m using is a Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Server image. To get it to work with Pihole we’ll have to make the IP static so it doesn’t up and change on us.
Since Ubuntu 17(?), Ubuntu uses netplan for configuring it’s ethernet interfaces. So let’s go to its config file at /etc/netplan/50-cloud.yaml (alternatively create a file called 01-netcfg.yaml and remove the default files). Edit the text so it looks like this:
network:
version: 2
renderer: networkd
ethernets:
ens160:
dhcp4: no
addresses:
- <IP_ADDRESS>/24
gateway4: <IP_ADDRESS>
nameservers:
addresses: [<IP_ADDRESS>]
Be wary that your ethernet interface name/ip subnet may vary, mine is ens160. Also, set your address to whatever you like, but I’ll be using <IP_ADDRESS>. Once you’re done, run
~ sudo netplan apply
Now to install Pihole. Simply run:
~ curl -sSL https://install.pi-hole.net | bash
It will prompt you for a few options like what external DNS you’d like to use, OpenDNS, Quad9, and DNSWatch are all fine. Once it’s finished it will show a screen with a randomly generated password to access the Pihole admin menu.
Next, login at http://<IP_ADDRESS>/admin/ using the password provided. Now you have your very own DNS server.
There’s a few quality of life improvements I recommend:
First, lets add some more blocklists. Click Tools > blocklists. Then copy and paste this into the text block:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StevenBlack/hosts/master/hosts
https://mirror1.malwaredomains.com/files/justdomains
http://sysctl.org/cameleon/hosts
https://s3.amazonaws.com/lists.disconnect.me/simple_tracking.txt
https://s3.amazonaws.com/lists.disconnect.me/simple_ad.txt
https://hosts-file.net/ad_servers.txt
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nicholasb2101/PiHole/master/Blocklists/Primary%20Blocklist.txt
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nicholasb2101/PiHole/master/Blocklists/Secondary%20Blocklist.txt
Click save and update, it may take a minute.
To setup your router to use your Pihole you’ll need to set it’s default DNS to use <IP_ADDRESS>. Once that is done you can set all device’s DNS to your router at <IP_ADDRESS> and it’ll route to the Pi. If your using, OpenWRT you can do this by selecting Network > Interfaces > Edit Lan; Then enter 6,<IP_ADDRESS> into the DHCP-Option field.
To force devices that are hardcoded to use external DNS you can configure your router to redirect all DNS requests to your Pihole. If you end up setting up a OpenWRT router, log in to it, then click Network > Firewall > Custom rules and drop these commands into the text box. If don’t have OpenWRT but can ssh into your router, then ssh into your router and enter these commands.
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -s <IP_ADDRESS> -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d <IP_ADDRESS> -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p udp --dport 53 -j DNAT --to <IP_ADDRESS>
iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 53 -j DNAT --to <IP_ADDRESS>
That’s all the configurations I’ve made to my Pihole so far, and I’m immensely satisfied.
Fin.
