Hello.....
Its Monday!!..The first day and also a new start for the week .I had to get up at 5 'o' clock(AM) since our Sir had called us for project discussion at 7.30 am.
I board my bus at 6.30 .It was an amazing weather,cool breeze ,window seat and what else could I ask for... and I took my cell out to read all my forwards which I had received last night and I must tell you the nice road near Pesit reminds me of Jab We Met song though it is funny.. :P..
I was the first one to reach coll at 7.10 and I was jobless so I started taking few good pics of my coll in my camera. Surprisingly Bhuvan was very late and 4 of them including Sir had to treat 3 of us(celebrities are ANUSHA,AKSHATHA and JAWERIYA ;) ) for coming late ,this is our SFPE rule !!! ,(stomach full pocket empty ) which we assessors and simplifiers follow.
Jaweriya was star for the today as she gave us a wonderful explanation on grading a text .
The talk was really interesting as our sir filled in examples to make it a lively session.
She wrote a few formulas for the readability assessment and content information which included lot of mathematical equations.
Her main explanation was on Grading the text ,she stresses on two points for this, one is readability assessment and one more Content information and how much of each as to be used to get the peak and efficient value.
For ex: Bhuvan likes coding and it is 20%work of our project and apoo likes reading which involves 80% work of our project but both are important for the completion of our project.
work ----------------- Grades
100% of bhuvan's coding ----------- 0
90% of bhuvans coding & 10% apoo s reading------ 10
50% of Bhuvan' work and 50% of apoo 's work-------- 50
20% of Bhuvan' work and 80% of apoo 's work ------- 85
0% of Bhuvan' work and 100% of apoo 's work-------- 5
Here in the example we can note that at one point there is a maximum efficiency and that combination of work from both of them would give maximum result .Similarly the same concept is applied to grading a text and here the two contenders are Readability assessment and Content information....:).
After a good discussion on this topic ,we were supposed to continue our work and we did that till till 12 o clock with continuous debugging and coding.
exactly at 12 we were told to solve Prasad s sir problem and that went on for 1 hour ,we were supposed to trace an algorithm on Chain Matrix Multiplication( Given a a set of matrices like a1,a2,a3,a4.. which combination of matrix multiplication would result in least number of steps in multiplications.
After this long time of tracing ,we went to have lunch in NRI canteen and I was waiting for it because Bhuvan was supposed to treat ..yahooooooooo !!!..:)
Then we all had a small Birthday party for Madhura which we enjoyed a lot and not to forget the pastry cake ,it was yummmmm...:P.
End of the day is the most important part for which me and apoo were waiting eagerly ..that is our code to be free of errors ,which we succeeded at around 1.30am due to our sir s help..
But one thing people ..This Index out of range error I tell you is so damn irritating if you dont overcome it .
I recommend all of you to please use python debugger (PDB) which saves a lot of time in your coding when you encounters errors.
Python debugger is really wonderful tool of python ....
We now started again with next module of our coding which searches sub sentences in the corpus by taking adjacent words.
Our search module was a grand success...
Lastly Credits to Bhuvan because he wrote an amazing code which simplifies a text with complicated words to simpler one but it did make sense when the word is replaced ...Kudos Bhuvan.....
This is the story of my BUSY monday........more posts to come.........
Cya. for now....

Wowwwww! Anusha... I must tell u... This is one of the best posts in Text Simplification! I enjoyed reading every sentence of it...Fun-filled, hilarious and informative!
ReplyDeleteI loved it :-)
haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaa, the best part is when you have used an example for two purposes... one to acknowledge that you have understood! other to pull someone's leg!!!!
ReplyDeletevery funny and very interesting :):):)
