Uses of Arip MT Tablet

Schizophrenia

Also known as Psychosis, Mental Illness, Mental Disorder
Overview

Schizophrenia is a mental disorder that affects a person’s thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It can significantly interfere with the ability to think rationally, control emotions and make decisions. Some of the common symptoms of schizophrenia include delusions, hallucinations, altered behavior, thought process, alterations in speech, and mood changes. The type and severity of these symptoms can vary over time. There may be periods of intermittent worsening and remission of symptoms.

The treatment for Schizophrenia primarily aims to control the psychotic symptoms with antipsychotic drugs and provide supportive care to the patient. There are many misconceptions regarding the disease, and patients battling Schizophrenia face a lot of social stigma. But thanks to the increase in awareness and improved treatment options, patients are able to lead a better quality of life at home and close to their loved ones.

Description of Mania
Definition: Bipolar disorder is a serious mental illness. People who have it go through unusual mood changes. They go from very happy, ‘up,’ and active to very sad and hopeless, ‘down,’ and inactive, and then back again. They often have normal moods in between. The up feeling is called mania. The down feeling is depression.

Singular Value Decomposition (Mathematical Overview)



We are talking about SVD and it is the single most important decomposition in linear algebra.

Let us say we have a matrix X which a collection of data column vector x1, x2,..., xm.

There are a couple of examples from where this matrix could come from.

For example:
I could take a bunch of pictures of people's faces.
Let us say we have a picture of a person's face.

We reshape that image into a tall million by 1 column vector.
And so on and so forth till m.

xn lies in Rn 



Another example could that this could a matrix coming from physical system. I have some fluid flow around circle, and we are generating this data with time repeatedly.

Each state is represented in the form of column vector of shape n X 1.



Through SVD:

We take this matrix X and we represent this matrix as a product of three other matrices.

X = (U)(Sigma)(V-Transpose)

The U matrix and V matrix are called Unitary matrices or Orthogonal matrices. 
The matrix Sigma is a diagonal matrix.

On writing it again in Matrix form:

U is an n-by-n matrix.

In matrix Sigma, there will only be 'm' non-zero diagonal values as there are only 'm' rows in matrix X. Everything else is zero.

Last matrix is this V-transpose.
V = [v1, v2, v3,..., vm]



We are taking are data matrix X and represent in the form of U, Sigma, and V.

The columns of U have the same shape as columns of X so if x1 million-by-1 vector then u1 is also a million-by-1 vector.

Column vectors in U are Eigen faces and u1 is more important than u2 and so on, so forth. They give us a basis to represent our original matrix X.

Column vector are heirarchically arranged representing the variance that goes column by colun in the vector X.

U and V are unitary.
That means:
(U-transpose)(U) = (U)(U-transpose) = I (identity matrix) of shape nXn

U is orthogonal that means:
U-transpose == U-inverse 

For V:

(V-transpose)(V) = (V)(V-transpose) = I (identity matrix) of shape mXm

For Sigma:

It is a diagonal matrix.
It is non-negative and heirarchical.

sig1 >= sig2 >= sig3 >= sig4 >= ... >= sigm >= 0

These heirarchichal property leads us to:
u1, sig1 and v1 are more important than u2, sig2 and v2, and so on and so forth.

The relative importance of each column vector is given by the values in the Sigma matrix.

U -> Left Singular Vectors
V -> Right Singular Vectors
X -> Singular Values

Values in X are orderdered by importance.

If some of the Sigma values sig-n are very, very small, then we can ignore them and chop our matrices into dominant columns of U and V.

Now: Eigen Faces.

X was representing a human face.
Since, u1, u2, etc are of same size of vector x1, x2, and so on and so forth. 
That implies: Vectors u1, u2, u3... can be reshaped into Eigen Faces.

Columns of V:
Taking the example of Eigen fluid flow in time:

U would be energy vectors (Eigen flows) u1, u2, u3,...

In V: v1 would essentially be the time series for the first mode u1.
v2: is how much eigen fluid differs in time after t1.
V: Eigen Time Series 

In case of human faces

V-transpose:
[
 [v1-transpose]
 [v2-transpose]
 [v3-transpose]
]

A column in V-transpose:
would tell me of all of those Eigen faces to add them upto x1.
v1-transpose can understood as: mixtures of U's used to make X's

SVD is guaranteed to exist. And, it is unique.

OK Cupid (looking into a free match-making software)

This article was written back in 2016... "This is not good, if somebody has a problem with a post then at least have the courtesy to inform/let know the author about it", that's what I have say to begin with and to the OK Cupid community, escorts community and call girls community.
I am a true admirer of free and open source software, but do not know what to say about this app OK Cupid.
Some people out there tried to benefit the society by giving it a free and good enough dating app but then the app lacks with a system of feedback and reporting, good user authentication system, among many other features. This allows users to use this app in ways not intended by its developers; one has to do more research on it to know if these are bugs or features. Well, now there are people, call girls and escort services who use this OK Cupid app to advertise themselves, as if we are already not seeing enough advertisements in the app's "hot or not" section. Now when I said 'they advertise' they are literally advertising their phone numbers, chat application (like Skype, Kik, WeChat, etc.) IDs to connect via video calling or photo sharing apps later.
The application searches for matches based on the user's location but then it uses some very stupid location management system and it does not even accurately predict your present location. Another bug, or feature I should say, is that even if you are in Delhi, it lets you change your location to well-known places by guesswork like Mumbai or Bengaluru, and then show you the matches from that location.
Oh god, I hope one of the Okc developers read this.
To make everyone's life simple, I have a short list of contact details of those girls from the app, ping me if you need it.

Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) Overview

Singular Value Decomposition (SVD)

It is a data reduction tool.
Let's say you have big data with a lot of dimensions then SVD can be used to reduce the dimensions into key features.

SVD is the first step in most dimension reduction techniques.

It is a data driven generalization of Fourier Transform (FFT).
FFT is one of the most useful transformation in most of the mathematics based on sine and cosine expansions to approximate functions. There is also Bessel's function, Aries' functions and Spherical harmonics.

And this was the technique of last generation of computation science.

SVD is used to map a system of interest in a system that is system.

But in many systems of interest today. Like turbulent flow over the Boeing wing.
There is not an easy tranformation function available to help in this complex problem.

SVD is going to allow us to do tailor the coordinate system based on the problem that we have.

What SVD can do for you?

1. Solve Ax = B (linear system of equations) for non-square A matrices.
We are going to use it particularly for Linear Regression models.

This has been useful in detection of disease medical science usecase.

2. It is also the basis of PCA (Principal Composition Analysis).

3. SVD helps in building and understanding correlation matrices.

It is used by Google in PageRank algorithm.
It is the basis of many facial recognition algorithms of Facebook.
It is also used in the recommendation systems of Amazon and Netflix.

Reasons for using it:

1.
It is based on simple and interpretable linear algebra. Anytime you have a data matrix you can apply SVD to it.

2.
It is scalable.
