What is the precision and recall of this Prediction APIs. What kind of data is used to test the precision and recall ? Is there a blog where I can access the test approach or strategy and results summary so that I get better understanding of its quality before I use this.
This is a pretty cool idea but is the car going to do once it knows where I drive every day? Is it going to start driving itself? Feels like it would just be collecting data, unless it learned to soften the suspension when I get to a rough patch of road everyday.
That's why I love google, their innovation, their ability to create new services for both users and for organizations. The other will be a note to my blog that is specifically about search and information retrieval. http://recuperaciondeinformacion-gr21.blogspot.com/
@Rowan if you mixed it with traffic flow it could tell you a better time to drive or a better route to avoid traffic jams. It of course could also provide ads for companies you drive past.
We developed a similar idea at Monash except the data mining framework actually exists on the device & uses optimized algorithms which consume less power. It is called OMM, here is a brief of a seminar we provided http://www.acs.org.au/vic/index.cfm?action=event&area=9003&temID=eventdetails&eveID=10148598860936
Google is essential for the community of librarians and archivists, because with the rapid growth of digital information, it is necessary for information professionals to adopt new tools and takes ownership.

Would second Snirp. Probably a better approach to this launch and retract spiral of hell, is to provide the date till which any of your APIs will be kept functioning and alive. After which all bets are off. That way I can either not use the API or use it knowing that it will be useful for only that much time. So my question here is: Do you guarantee this API will survive through to 2014? If so, It's probably worth looking into. Else, stop wasting my time.

ReplyDeleteCan't believe I'm the first to post: Nice job! Eager to see what people will do with this :)

ReplyDeleteCan this API predict when it will be killed off by Google, thereby rendering your code useless?
ReplyDeleteI am an online seller, how can google prediction help me. Can it help me with which products i should carry in my eshop
