Weekly Review 19 February 2016

Some interesting links that I Tweeted about in the last week:

  1. "Illegally" sharing research articles-and of course it's Elsevier suing over it: http://www.sciencealert.com/this-woman-has-illegally-uploaded-millions-of-journal-articles-in-an-attempt-to-open-up-science
  2. Seriously, Elsevier, just stop being such ridiculously greedy dicks! http://www.sciencealert.com/this-woman-has-illegally-uploaded-millions-of-journal-articles-in-an-attempt-to-open-up-science
  3. Ensembles in machine learning: http://www.kdnuggets.com/2016/02/ensemble-methods-techniques-produce-improved-machine-learning.html I used ensembles of MLP years ago to model an ecoinformatics problem.
  4. Elsevier is the Walter White of journal publishers: http://bigthink.com/neurobonkers/a-pirate-bay-for-science
