    P-Bruins Stomp Wolf Pack to Lower Magic Number to Two

    Providence Bruins Nathan Roberts [email protected], 401.680.4734 Eddie Pannone [email protected] P-BRUINS STOMP WOLF PACK TO LOWER MAGIC NUMBER TO TWO Providence, RI – The Providence Bruins defeated the Hartford Wolf Pack Friday night 6-3, lowering their magic number to clinch a playoff berth to two. The P-Bruins got two goals from Ryan Fitzgerald along with goals from Anton Blidh, Jordan Szwarz, Trent Frederic and Austin Czarnik while Zane McIntyre made his 42nd start of the season in net. Providence dominated the zone time in the opening period and it showed on the scoreboard. After being held scoreless despite an 8-1 shots edge through six minutes, Blidh gave the P-Bruins a 1-0 lead at 7:59. Taking a pass from Cameron Hughes, Blidh started a 2-on-1 break with Jack Studnicka up the right side. Rather than pass, Blidh surprised Hartford goalie Alexander Georgiev with a wrister from inside the right circle for his 11th goal of the season. Just 1:11 later, Szwarz doubled that lead with his 21st goal of the season. At the bottom of the left circle, he blasted a one-timer in off a pass from Fitzgerald to give Providence a 2-0 lead into the first intermission. That domination continued into period number two with Providence tacking on a trio of goals. Fitzgerald found the back of the net on the power play at 2:58, tapping a beautiful feed from Czarnik in from the crease to make things 3-0 Providence. He struck again at 8:37, taking advantage of a poor Hartford clearing attempt.
  • Turnbull Hockey Pool For

    Turnbull Hockey Pool For

    Turnbull Hockey Pool for Each year, Turnbull students participate in several fundraising initiatives, which we promote as a way to develop a sense of community, leadership and social responsibility within the students. Last year's grade 7 and 8 students put forth a great deal of effort campaigning friends and family members to join Turnbull's annual NHL hockey pool, raising a total of $1750 for a charity of their choice (the United Way). This year's group has decided to run the hockey pool for the benefit of Help Lesotho, an international development organization working in the AIDS-ravaged country of Lesotho in southern Africa. From www.helplesotho.org "Help Lesotho’s programs foster hope and motivation in those who are most in need: orphans, vulnerable children, at-risk youth and grandmothers. Our work targets root causes and community priorities, including literacy, youth leadership training, school twinning, child sponsorship and gender programming. Help Lesotho is an effective, sustainable organization that is working at the grass-roots level to support the next generation of leaders in Lesotho." Your participation in this year's NHL hockey pool is very much appreciated. We believe it will provide students and their friends and families an opportunity to have fun together while giving back to their community by raising awareness and funds for a great cause. Prizes: > Grand Prize awarded to contestant whose team accumulates the most points over the regular NHL season = 10" Samsung Galaxy Tablet > Monthly Prizes awarded to the contestants whose teams accumulate the most points over each designated period (see website) = Two Movie Passes How it Works: > Everyone in the community is welcome to join in on the fun.

  • Feature Selection and Dimension Reduction

    Feature Selection and Dimension Reduction

    DATA SCIENCE REPORT SERIES Feature Selection and Data Reduction (DRAFT) Patrick Boily1,2,3,4, Olivier Leduc1, Andrew Macfie3, Aditya Maheshwari3, Maia Pelletier1 Abstract Data mining is the collection of processes by which we can extract useful insights from data. Inherent in this definition is the idea of data reduction: useful insights (whether in the form of summaries, sentiment analyses, etc.) ought to be “smaller” and “more organized” than the original raw data. The challenges presented by high data dimensionality (the so-called curse of dimensionality) must be addressed in order to achieve insightful and interpretable analytical results. In this report, we introduce the basic principles of dimensionality reduction and a number of feature selection methods (filter, wrapper, regularization), discuss some current advanced topics (SVD, spectral feature selection, UMAP) and provide examples (with code). Keywords feature selection, dimension reduction, curse of dimensionality, principal component analysis, manifold hypothesis, manifold learning, regularization, subset selection, spectral feature selection, uniform manifold approximation and projection Funding Acknowledgement Parts of this report were funded by a University of Ottawa grant to develop teaching material in French (2019-2020). These were subsequently translated into English before being incorporated into this document. 1Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of Ottawa, Ottawa 2Sprott School of Business, Carleton University, Ottawa 3Idlewyld Analytics and Consulting
