Get the Microsoft Research Sentence Completion Challenge - machine-learning

I am currently working on natural language processing for scholar purposes, and I would like to get the Microsoft Research Sentence Completion Challenge dataset.
Unfortunately, it seems that it is no more available on Microsoft's website : when I click on any of the two links to get the training or test data, I am redirected to the main page of Microsoft Research. I tried to contact Microsoft's technical support, but they didn't answer me, and I couldn't find the dataset on an other website.
Do you know where I could find this dataset (I'm mainly interested in the test set) ?
Thanks in advance for your help.

I did some research, I have two sources (were quite hard to find):
Kaggle - https://inclass.kaggle.com/c/mlsd-hw3/data
Github repo/google drive link - https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B5eGOMdyHn2mWDYtQzlQeGNKa2s
Hope they are correct :)

Dose anybody know a source having multi-electrode (several channels) recorded data of multiple Neurons (I prefer real data not artificial)?

I mean recorded data of multiple Neurons with multi-electrode. I need this data as the input for my experiment.
Google just released a Beta Dataset Search Engine.
You can find data Here
A good way to tackle stuff like this is to email the various labs that work with or generate data of your particular interest. A lot of labs I have worked for in the past have tons of data lying around that is not used, or usefull for them in any current way, and people are generally enthousiastic about your interest in their study.
Adittionally, there are many projects funded with the idea of sharing data and tools for the benefit of science. One such project is the miniscope project from UCLA (which has a ton of calcium imaging data lying around and have very helpfull people willing to share and assist you in the analysis. I am sure a quick google around can help you find similar labs more specialized in electrofysiology over calcium imaging.
I hope you find what your are looking for!

Core ML Vision producing incorrect answers

I'm using Apple's Core ML to visually recognize items in an image but it's returning incorrect answers sometimes identifying shoes as a knife etc. Is there a way to provide feedback about CoreML and hopefully guide it towards correctly identifying the items in an image?
You're probably giving the Core ML model inputs that it does not expect. I wrote a blog post about the most common mistakes: http://machinethink.net/blog/help-core-ml-gives-wrong-output/
I would open a feedback ticket at https://developer.apple.com/bug-reporting/
Apple is really glad to get devs feedback. Try to detail yours as deeply as possible :)
EDIT : I would also suggest that you try another CoreML model ! I had a few tries with Inception V3 which worked like a charm with my apps. https://developer.apple.com/machine-learning/

How to get started with TensorFlow?

How to get start TensorFlow, is there any book to read?
I'm good at java programming, and have some background of machine learning. I'd like to find a book or a course about TensorFlow. Is there any recommendation?
Though this page its not the right place to ask such question , A programmer should get answer wherever possible
You can get some of the tutorials that could be taken as initiation for your study at the very its own website https://www.tensorflow.org/tutorials/ .Also you can refer the youtube https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxePmhCQRxb9I6tlcB1yJpOq5_4ryCy7n .

Retreiving similar images from a set of images using SIFT/SURF

I am working on SIFT features and 'm using a visual bag-of-words approach to make a vocabulary first and then do the matching. I've found similar questions but didn't find the appropriate answer.
Same question is asked in below link but there is no satisfactory answer, can anyone help me. Thank u in advance.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29366944/finding-top-similar-images-from-a-database-using-sift-surf
Sift and Surf Method are all implemented in lire project and ready to use. Code is very simple if you know the bag of visual word you can modify also.
https://github.com/dermotte/LIRE complete bag of visual word is fully implemented. here is the lire Demo site.
You may look details and implementation of the methods on opencv library for feature extraction. After getting visual word you should use information retrieval approaches used in search engines. By the way Lire also include an information retrieval library called lucene. You may stick to lire way until you get the whole idea.

Graphing/Crystal Reports with ASP.Net MVC

I would like to add graphing to my User Controls in ASP.NET MVC. I am hoping for some ideas or a guide on how to approach this issue. I have searched around and found no helpful answers to resolve this issue. I was thinking of doing crystal reports but they don't boat over well in ASP.NET from my previous experience. I would just like to know some ways to go about tackling this problem. So again what I'm trying to do is add graphing to MVC User Controls from a ViewDataDictionary that's passed to my User Control.
You could go with google charts for free, or something like Dundas (which is EXCELLENT) if you are willing to pay.
I hope I've understood your question.
I have been happy using the JFreeChart.net graphing system. It is a port / semi-port of javas famous JFreechart. It has alot of capabilities, and the output looks very good.
It took me 30 minutes to do my first graph, but that was mostly because you have to pay for the documentation (not the code), so i was working off the samples, which I later found to be very adequate.
Screenshots and examples are shown here

Flex Charting, ChartDirector and Yahoo's Charts are decent. Chart Director has a good support net, and the guy is very responsive to questions and feature requests.
You could also check out .dot net charting. We've been using it for a few years at my job and it's worked fairly good for us. We build reports internally through various systems and it has served us well so far.
