PyTorch-BigGraph: a large-scale graph embedding system Lerer et al., SysML’19 We looked at graph neural networks earlier this year, which operate directly over a graph structure. Via graph autoencoders or other means, another approach is to learn embeddings for the nodes in the graph, and then use these embeddings as inputs into a (regular) neural … Continue reading PyTorch-BigGraph: a large-scale graph embedding system

A columnstore database takes all the values in a given column – the zip code column in a customer database, for instance – and stores all the zip code values in a single row, with the column number as the first entry. So the start of a columnstore database’s ZIP code record might look like this: 5, 94063, 20474, 38654… The “5” at the beginning means that the ZIP code data is stored in the fifth column in the rowstore database of customer names and addresses that the original data comes from. Columnstore databases make it fast and easy to …
