Wooo, finally got 80% in a model. Had to do a lot of stuff, changing constantly between R and Weka, but if this is the final accuracy of the model then I'm pretty satisfied. Apparently the best we can get is 84%, which is just a difference of 2 observations incorrectly classified. I spent so much time on this that I'm going to go ahead with this model and write the final report before I run out of time to do it.

Well that model was actually "crap". Anyway, it lead me to a discussion with a classmate that, coupled with an article I found later online, gave me an idea of something to try out. Very simple, just picking 3 submitted results with some different predictions but that ranked around 70 to 80%, and then do a majority vote. Ended up getting 84% in the public data set (no idea about the private one though). Now I just have to find out what methods I used for 2 of those results...

That sounds really awful! I hope things let up for you soon! Have you tried meditation or Yoga to relieve stress before? Or even relaxing music can help a lot if you can just unplug from it all for 20 mins.

Ironic right when I logged on here I was thinking I love sleeping and dreaming even when my dreams are weird or silly they are so much better than reality.


I had a dream the other night that I was sleeping in a field but I had a pillow on the ground. Then there were these two college age girls on a park bench nearby giggling and I asked them what was so funny and they said they put a used, ahem, condom under my pillow. So I lifted the pillow and sure enough...then I woke up...what you think that means?

They usually are good for me too. But these last couple of nights, they have been heavily influenced by the news.

Today, I decided to avoid everything. Maybe watch some cute cat videos before bed.

I do practice yoga, and it has helped immensely... However, I feel like every minute of my day is accounted for. Except for when I log on here. I use it as a much needed escape.

Thank you Molly, I too hope things let up soon.

Wow, for the first time since my childhood I'm around people who have many interests in common with me. I don't have to be the quiet guy around these people because I actually have stuff to say about whatever we're talking about.

You want to know how I got these scars?
I just want to crawl into bed and cry.

I know how you feel Nodes :(
Yesterday my life - and emotions - where ok. I find out today that I may not have a job within the next few days.

I feel worthless and lost because the people in power are a s s holes who dont give a crap about what it does to your life.

Anyhow, I hope you're ok.

I have my glasses case with me but the glasses are still at home.
I've also been to the cafe i went to after the first night that i slept rough.
I'm much better that i was back then but still not great.
I forgot the glasses because i was so stressed prior to leaving home.
My street and local is where my anxiety is at its highest.
Luckily you can enlarge the screen font.

I should go to sleep. I have an important meeting tomorrow. But I just want time to stay still for now. I dont want to go to sleep, even though I'm tired.
I just want to sit on my bed, mucking around on my laptop, with the tv on.
 
There are days, weeks, and even months that go by where I feel like a normal, albeit inclusive, person, but when I'm at my lows it convinces me that I really do have a problem.
