Open Source Linux Data Science Tools

XGBoost is an optimized distributed gradient boosting library, designed to be scalable, flexible, portable and highly efficient. It supports regression, classification, ranking and user defined objectives, and runs on all major operating systems and cloud platforms. XGBoost works by implementing machine learning algorithms under the Gradient Boosting framework. It also offers parallel tree boosting (GBDT, GBRT or GBM) that can quickly and accurately solve many data science problems. XGBoost can be used for Python, Java, Scala, R, C++ and more. It can run on a single machine, Hadoop, Spark, Dask, Flink and most other distributed environments, and is capable of solving problems beyond billions of examples.

SynapseML (previously MMLSpark) is an open source library to simplify the creation of scalable machine learning pipelines. SynapseML builds on Apache Spark and SparkML to enable new kinds of machine learning, analytics, and model deployment workflows. SynapseML adds many deep learning and data science tools to the Spark ecosystem, including seamless integration of Spark Machine Learning pipelines with the Open Neural Network Exchange (ONNX), LightGBM, The Cognitive Services, Vowpal Wabbit, and OpenCV. These tools enable powerful and highly-scalable predictive and analytical models for a variety of data sources. SynapseML also brings new networking capabilities to the Spark Ecosystem. With the HTTP on Spark project, users can embed any web service into their SparkML models. For production-grade deployment, the Spark Serving project enables high throughput, sub-millisecond latency web services, backed by your Spark cluster.

Time series forecasting is one of the most important topics in data science. Almost every business needs to predict the future in order to make better decisions and allocate resources more effectively. This repository provides examples and best practice guidelines for building forecasting solutions. The goal of this repository is to build a comprehensive set of tools and examples that leverage recent advances in forecasting algorithms to build solutions and operationalize them. Rather than creating implementations from scratch, we draw from existing state-of-the-art libraries and build additional utilities around processing and featuring the data, optimizing and evaluating models, and scaling up to the cloud. The examples and best practices are provided as Python Jupyter notebooks and R markdown files and a library of utility functions.

Metaflow is a human-friendly Python library that helps scientists and engineers build and manage real-life data science projects. Metaflow was originally developed at Netflix to boost productivity of data scientists who work on a wide variety of projects from classical statistics to state-of-the-art deep learning.

Built based on the Apache Arrow columnar memory format, cuDF is a GPU DataFrame library for loading, joining, aggregating, filtering, and otherwise manipulating data. cuDF provides a pandas-like API that will be familiar to data engineers & data scientists, so they can use it to easily accelerate their workflows without going into the details of CUDA programming. For additional examples, browse our complete API documentation, or check out our more detailed notebooks. cuDF can be installed with conda (miniconda, or the full Anaconda distribution) from the rapidsai channel. cuDF is supported only on Linux, and with Python versions 3.7 and later. The RAPIDS suite of open-source software libraries aims to enable the execution of end-to-end data science and analytics pipelines entirely on GPUs. It relies on NVIDIA® CUDA® primitives for low-level compute optimization but exposing that GPU parallelism and high-bandwidth memory speed through user-friendly Python interfaces.
