coloring bars in geom_bar - color-scheme

I want to put different colors on my bars using scale_fill_manual or preferably scale_fill_brewer(plalette="pastel") in ggplot but each time I get "Error: Continuous value supplied to discrete scale".
I apologize for not providing my code or a data set but I could not figue out from the website how to load them.

Return empty cell instead of 0 in Google Sheets when data being displayed is an array from another sheet

I have a Google Sheet workbook with multiple sheets being used to track COVID-19 cases in institutions across the country. The built-in Google Sheets geo chart works perfectly for the data visualization I need to accomplish, with one issue: It currently can't differentiate between actual 0 and "no data", which super skews how the
(essentially you can choose what color to use on the map for high value, mid value, low value, and no value. Where it should be using the color for "no value", it uses the low value color instead which makes the visualization confusing.)
The reason it's doing that is the array it's using as its data source contains zeroes to represent "no data available".
The array is imported from a different sheet by using ={'State Totals'!N4:P54}. I found an explanation for how to generally use a formula to return empty cells, the example there being =if(B2-C2>0, B2-C2, " ").
I'm extremely noob when it comes to these formulas, and I cannot figure out if I can nest an IF condition in an array import, or vice versa, or... what or how.
Here's a link to the sheet in question, if that helps at all. Really I just need a formula that
Imports the array values
Returns empty cells in place of zeroes where they appear
I don't want to affect the origin sheet's zero handling, just the one that the chart's using. (I also am absolutely not being paid enough to try and rig up a better map with Google Data Queries instead of the in-built Google Sheets chart maker, so here's to hoping it's a simple matter of syntax.)
instead of ={'State Totals'!N4:P54} use:
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF('State Totals'!N4:P54=0,,'State Totals'!N4:P54))

How to train a custom Object detector from scratch in tensorflow.js?

I followed multiple example, to train a custom object detector in TensorflowJS . The main problem I am facing every where it is using pretrained model.
Pretrained models are fine for general use cases, but custom scenario it fails. For example, take this this is example form official Tensorflowjs examples, here it is using mobilenet, and mobilenet and mobilenet has image size restriction 224x224 which defeats all the purpose, because my images are big and also not of same ratio so resizing is not an option.
I have tried multiple example, all follows same path oneway or another.
What I want ?
Any example by which I can train a custom objector from scratch in Tensorflow.js.
Although the answer sounds simple but trust me I searching for this for multiple days. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Currently it is not yet possible to use tensorflow object detection api in nodejs. But the image size should not be a restriction. Instead of resizing, you can crop your image and keep only the part that contain your object to be detected.
One approach will be like partition the image in 224x224 and run for all partitions but what if the object is between two partitions
The image does not need to be partitioned for it. When labelling the image, you will need to know the x, y coordinates (from the top left) and the w, h of the detected box. You only need to crop a part of the image that will contain the box. Cropping at the coordinates x - (224-w)/2, y- (224-h)/2 can be a good start. There are two issues with these coordinates:
the detected boxes will always be in the center, so the training will be biaised. To prevent it, a randomn factor can be used. x - (224-w)/r , y- (224-h)/r where r can be randomly taken from [1-10] for instance
if the detected boxes are bigger than 224 * 224 maybe you might first choose to resize the video keeping it ratio before cropping. In this case the boxe size (w, h) will need to be readjusted according to the scale used for the resizing

Issue reading .txt file in Matlab. I want to get an array from this file without the unnecessary info it contains

I'm having trouble reading a .txt file to get some data. I want to be able to change some of the values this data contains.
At first, I used this:
A=importdata('myfile.txt');
And got this cell array:
Now what I want is this:
1) Get rid of the headers (the information from cell 1 to 22). That could be easily done by simple indexing (creating a sub-array using just the info from cell 23 to the end of the file).
2) I want to separate the information into different cells, using these identifiers. But I don't know how to separate them into different cells of the array.
'# item bepoch ecode label onset diff dura b_flags a_flags enable bin'
3) Do the same in step 2 to fill those columns with the data in the rest of the cells.
I'm trying to use this approach, but I'm not getting the expected results.
If someone can help me, I'd be glad.
Have you tried dragging the file into the variable workspace window and using the data import wizard? It has some nice features that normally take care of what you are trying to do automatically. Unfortunately, it seems that your text file may have unconventional spacing, but Matlab may be able to handle it if you set the delimeter to ' ' or suchlike.

ShieldUI Stacked Bar Graph with Totals

I've got a stacked bar graph that shows two categories of information. Now I have a requirement to show the total of the bars at the end of the bar. I've attached a mock-up showing what I'm trying to do -- the numbers in red are what I'm trying to add.
(source: michaelandlisa.us)
I couldn't find anything in the documentation on how to add totals, or on how to add annotations (which would also work).
Basically, ShieldUI jQuery chart plugin renders the series without text, as shown here.
To alter this behavior, you need to first enable the text.
Then, you can use a format function to either show some cumulative text, or return an empty string. More information on this approach is available here.
This can be coupled with a global counter to determine each Xth iteration.
I managed to get this to work by adding a Scatter chart of total values on top of the existing bar chart.
http://michaelandlisa.us/Images/Forums/stacked_with_totals_scatter.png
I also set the color on the series to "transparent" so the point wouldn't show up, and then I bumped the X and Y by 15 and 12 respectively. I also set the style to Bold, and set the format to "{point.y:n0}". Here's the relevant MVC code (where totals is a List of object):
.DataSeries(series => series.Scatter()
.Data(totals)
.CollectionAlias("Total")
.Color("transparent")
.AddToLegend(false).DataPointText(dtp =>
{
dtp.Enabled(true);
dtp.Format("{point.y:n0}");
dtp.Style(s => s.FontWeight(FontWeight.Bold));
dtp.Color("red");
dtp.X(15);
dtp.Y(12);
}))

Programmatically determining max fit in textbox (WP7)

I'm currently writing an eBook reader for Windows Phone Seven, and I'm trying to style it like the Kindle reader. In order to do so, I need to split my books up into pages, and this is going to get a lot more complex when variable font sizes are added.
To do this at the moment, I just add a word at a time into the textblock until it becomes higher than its container. As you can imagine though, with a document of over 120,000 words, this takes an unacceptable period of time.
Is there a way I can find out when the text would exceed the bounds (logically dividing it into pages), without having to actually render it? That way I'd be able to run it in a background thread so the user can keep reading in the meantime.
So far, the only idea that has occurred to me is to find out how the textblock decides its bounds (in the measure call?), but I have no idea how to find that code, because reflector didn't show anything.
Thanks in advance!
From what I can see the Kindle app appears to use a similar algorithm to the one you suggest. Note that:
it generally shows the % position through the book - it doesn't show total number of pages.
if you change the font size, then the first word on the page remains the same (so that's where the % comes from) - so the Kindle app just does one page worth of repagination assuming the first word of the page stays the same.
if you change the font size and then scroll back to the first page, then actually there is a discontinuity - they pull content forwards again in order to fill the first page.
Based on this, I would suggest you do not index the whole book. Instead just concentrate on the current page based on a "position" of some kind (e.g. character count - displayed as a percentage). If you have to do something on a background thread, then just look at the next page (and maybe the prev page) in order that scrolling can be more responsive.
Further to optimise your experience, there are a couple of changes you could make to your current algorithm that you could try:
try a different starting point and search increment for your algorithm - no need to start at one word and to then only add one word at a time.
assuming most of your books are ASCII, try caching the width of the common characters, and then work out the width of textblocks yourself.
Beyond that, I'd also quite like to try using <Run> blocks within your TextBlock - it may be possible to get the relative position of each Run within the TextBlock - although I've not managed to do this yet.
I do something similar to adjust font size for individual textboxes (to ensure they all fit). Basically, I create a TextBlock in code, set all my properties and check the ActualWidth and ActualHeight properties. Here is some pseudo code to help with your problem:
public static String PageText(TextBlock txtPage, String BookText)
{
TextBlock t = new TextBlock();
t.FontFamily = txtPage.FontFamily;
t.FontStyle = txtPage.FontStyle;
t.FontWeight = txtPage.FontWeight;
t.FontSize = txtPage.FontSize;
t.Text = BookText;
Size Actual = new Size();
Actual.Width = t.ActualWidth;
Actual.Height = t.ActualHeight;
if(Actual.Height <= txtPage.ActualHeight)
return BookText;
Double hRatio = txtPage.ActualHeight / Actual.Height;
return s.Substring((int)((s.Length - 1) * hRatio));
}
The above is untested code, but hopefully can get you started. Basically it sees if the text can fit in the box, if so you're good to go. If not, it finds out what percentage of the text can fit and returns it. This does not take word breaks into account, and may not be a perfect match, but should get you close.
You could alter this code to return the length rather than the actual substring and use that as your page size. Creating the textblock in code (with no display) actually performs pretty well (I do it in some table views with no noticeable lag). I wouldn't send all 120,000 words to this function, but a reasonable subset of some sort.
Once you have the ideal length you can use a RegEx to split the book into pages. There are examples on this site of RegEx that break on word boundaries after a specific length.
Another option, is to calculate page size ahead of time for each potential fontsize (and hardcode it with a switch statement). This could easily get crazy if you are allowing any font and any size combinations, and would be awful if you allowed mixed fonts/sizes, but would perform very well. Most likely you have a particular range of readable sizes, and just a few fonts. Creating a test app to calculate the text length of a page for each of these combinations wouldn't be that hard and would probably make your life easier - even if it doesn't "feel" right as a programmer :)
I didn't find any reference to this example from Microsoft called: "Principles of Pagination".
It has some interesting sample code running in Windows Phone.

You can also look this article about Page Transitions in Windows Phone and this other about the final touches in the E-Book project.
The code is downloadable: http://archive.msdn.microsoft.com/mag201111UIFrontiers/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=5776
You can query the FormattedText class that is used AFAIK inside textBlock. since this is the class being used to format text in preparation for Rendering, this is the most lower-level class available, and should be fast.
