Previously, we trained our model using machine learning. However, the sample data we utilized was generated directly from insert statements. Today, we will learn how to load this data straight from a file. Dump Data Before dumping the data from your file, check what header the fields have. In this case, the file is called “Sleep_health_and_lifestyle_dataset.csv” and is located in the data/csv folder. This file contains 374 records plus a header (375 lines). The header includes the following names and positions: Person ID Gender Age Occupation Sleep Duration Quality of Sleep Physical Activity Level Stress Level BMI Category Systolic Diastolic Heart Rate Daily Steps Sleep Disorder It is essential to know the names of column headers. The class St.MLL.insomnia02 has different column names; therefore, we need to load the data indicating the name of the column into the file, while the relation with the column is placed in the table. LOAD DATA FROM FILE '/opt/irisbuild/data/csv/Sleep_health_and_lifestyle_dataset.csv' INTO St_MLL.insomnia02 (Gender,Age,Occupation,SleepDuration,QualitySleep,PhysicalActivityLevel, StressLevel,BMICategory,Systolic,Diastolic,HeartRate,DailySteps,SleepDisorder) VALUES ("Gender","Age","Occupation","Sleep Duration","Quality of Sleep","Physical Activity Level", "Stress Level","BMI Category","Systolic","Diastolic","Heart Rate","Daily Steps","Sleep Disorder") USING {"from":{"file":{"header":true}}} All the information makes sense, but… What is the last instruction? { "from": { "file": { "header": true } } } This is an instruction for the LOAD DATA command to determine what the file is (whether or not it has a header; whether the column separator is another character, etc). You can find more information about the JSON options by checking out the following links: LOAD DATA (SQL) LOAD DATA jsonOptions Since the columns of the file do not match those in the tables, it is necessary to indicate that the document has a line with the header, because by default, this value is “false”. Now, we will drill our model once more. With much more data in hand, it will be way more efficient at this point. TRAIN MODEL insomnia01AllModel FROM St_MLL.insomnia02 TRAIN MODEL insomnia01SleepModel FROM St_MLL.insomnia02 TRAIN MODEL insomnia01BMIModel FROM St_MLL.insomnia02 Populate the St_MLL.insomniaValidate02 table with 50% of St_MLL.insomnia02 rows: INSERT INTO St_MLL.insomniaValidate02( Age, BMICategory, DailySteps, Diastolic, Gender, HeartRate, Occupation, PhysicalActivityLevel, QualitySleep, SleepDisorder, SleepDuration, StressLevel, Systolic) SELECT TOP 187 Age, BMICategory, DailySteps, Diastolic, Gender, HeartRate, Occupation, PhysicalActivityLevel, QualitySleep, SleepDisorder, SleepDuration, StressLevel, Systolic FROM St_MLL.insomnia02 Validate the models with the newly validated table: INSERT INTO St_MLL.insomniaTest02( Age, BMICategory, DailySteps, Diastolic, Gender, HeartRate, Occupation, PhysicalActivityLevel, QualitySleep, SleepDisorder, SleepDuration, StressLevel, Systolic) SELECT TOP 50 Age, BMICategory, DailySteps, Diastolic, Gender, HeartRate, Occupation, PhysicalActivityLevel, QualitySleep, SleepDisorder, SleepDuration, StressLevel, Systolic FROM St_MLL.insomnia02 Proceeding with our previous model (a nurse, 29-year-old, female), we can check what prediction our test table will make. Note: The following queries will be focused exclusively on this type of person. SELECT *, PREDICT(insomnia01AllModel) FROM St_MLL.insomnia02 WHERE age = 29 and Gender = 'Female' and Occupation = 'Nurse' SURPRISE!!! The result is identical to the one with less data. We thought that training our model with more data would improve the outcome, but we were wrong. For a change, I executed the probability query instead, and I got a pretty interesting result: SELECT Gender, Age, SleepDuration, QualitySleep, SleepDisorder, PREDICT(insomnia01SleepModel) As SleepDisorderPrediction, PROBABILITY(insomnia01SleepModel FOR 'Insomnia') as ProbabilityInsomnia, PROBABILITY(insomnia01SleepModel FOR 'Sleep Apnea') as ProbabilityApnea FROM St_MLL.insomniaTest02 WHERE age = 29 and Gender = 'Female' and Occupation = 'Nurse' According to the data (sex, age, sleep quality, and sleep duration), the probability of having insomnia is only 46.02%, whereas the chance of having sleep apnea is 51.46%. Our previous data training provided us with the following percentages: insomnia - 34.63%, and sleep apnea - 64.18%. What does it mean? The more data we have, the more accurate results we obtain. Time Is Money Now, let's try another type of training, using the time series. Following the same steps we took to build the insomnia table, I created a class called WeatherBase: Class St.MLL.WeatherBase Extends %Persistent { /// Date and time of the weather observation in New York City Property DatetimeNYC As %DateTime; /// Measured temperature in degrees Property Temperature As %Numeric(SCALE = 2); /// Apparent ("feels like") temperature in degrees Property ApparentTemperature As %Numeric(SCALE = 2); /// Relative humidity (0 to 1) Property Humidity As %Numeric(SCALE = 2); /// Wind speed in appropriate units (e.g., km/h) Property WindSpeed As %Numeric(SCALE = 2); /// Wind direction in degrees Property WindBearing As %Numeric(SCALE = 2); /// Visibility distance in kilometers Property Visibility As %Numeric(SCALE = 2); /// Cloud cover fraction (0 to 1) Property LoudCover As %Numeric(SCALE = 2); /// Atmospheric pressure in appropriate units (e.g., hPa) Property Pressure As %Numeric(SCALE = 2); } Then, I built two classes extending from WeatherBase (Weather and WeatherTest). It allowed me to have the same columns for both tables. There is a file named “NYC_WeatherHistory.csv” in the csv folder. It contains the temperature, humidity, wind speed, and pressure for New York City in 2015. It is a fortune of data!! For that reason, we will load the file into our table using the knowledge about how to load data from a file. LOAD DATA FROM FILE '/opt/irisbuild/data/csv/NYC_WeatherHistory.csv' INTO St_MLL.Weather (DatetimeNYC,Temperature,ApparentTemperature,Humidity,WindSpeed,WindBearing,Visibility,LoudCover,Pressure) VALUES ("DatetimeNYC","Temperature","ApparentTemperature","Humidity","WindSpeed","WindBearing","Visibility","LoudCover","Pressure") USING {"from":{"file":{"header":true}}} 📣NOTE: The names of the columns and the fields in the table are the same, therefore, we can use the following sentence instead. LOAD DATA FROM FILE '/opt/irisbuild/data/csv/NYC_WeatherHistory.csv' INTO St_MLL.Weather USING {"from":{"file":{"header":true}}} Now we will create our model, but we will do it in a particular way. CREATE TIME SERIES MODEL WeatherForecast PREDICTING (Temperature, Humidity, WindSpeed, Pressure) BY (DatetimeNYC) FROM St_MLL.Weather USING {"Forward":3} If we wish to create a prediction series, we should take into account the recommendations below: The date field must be datetime. Try to sort the data chronologically. 📣NOTE: This advice comes from Luis Angel Perez, thanks to his great experience in Machine Learning. The latest command, USING {"Forward":3}, sets the timesteps for the time series. This parameter has other values: forward specifies the number of timesteps in the future that you would like to foresee as a positive integer. Approximated rows will appear after the latest time or date in the original dataset. However, you may specify both this and the backward setting simultaneously. Example: USING {"Forward":3} backward defines the number of timesteps in the past that you would like to predict as a positive integer. Forecasted rows will appear before the earliest time or date in the original dataset. Remember that you can indicate both this and the forward setting at the same time. The AutoML provider ignores this parameter.Example: USING {"backward":5} frequency determines both the size and unit of the predicted timesteps as a positive integer followed by a letter that denotes the unit of time. If this value is not appointed, the most common timestep in the data is supplied. Example: USING {"Frequency":"d"} This parameter is case-insensitive. The letter abbreviations for units of time are outlined in the following table: Abbreviation Unit of Time y year m month w week d day h hour t minute s second Now… training. You already know the command for that: TRAIN MODEL WeatherForecast Be patient! This training took 1391 seconds, wich is approximately 23 minutes!!!! Now, populate the table St_MLL.WeatherTest with the command Populate. Do ##class(St.MLL.WeatherTest).Populate() It includes the first 5 days of January 2025. When completed, select the prediction using the model and the test table. 📣Remember: It is crucial to have at least three values to be able to make a prognosis. SELECT WITH PREDICTIONS (WeatherForecast) * FROM St_MLL.WeatherTest Well, it is showing us the forecast for the next 3 hours on January 2, 2025. This happens because we defined our model to forecast 3 records ahead. However, our data model has data for every hour of every day (00:00, 01:00, 02:00, etc.) If we want to see the daily outlook, we should create another model trained to do so by the day. Let's create the following model to see the 5-day forecast. CREATE TIME SERIES MODEL WeatherForecastDaily PREDICTING (Temperature, Humidity, WindSpeed, Pressure) BY (DatetimeNYC) FROM St_MLL.Weather USING {"Forward":5, "Frequency":"d"} Now, repeat the same steps… training and displaying the forecast: TRAIN MODEL WeatherForecastDaily SELECT WITH PREDICTIONS (WeatherForecastDaily) * FROM St_MLL.WeatherTest Wait! This time, it throws out the following error: [SQLCODE: <-400>:<Fatal error occurred>][%msg: <PREDICT execution error: ERROR #5002: ObjectScript error: <PYTHON EXCEPTION> *<class 'ValueError'>: forecast_length is too large for training data. What this means is you don't have enough history to support cross validation with your forecast_length. Various solutions include bringing in more data, alter min_allowed_train_percent to something smaller, and also setting a shorter forecast_length to class init for cross validation which you can then override with a longer value in .predict() This error is also often caused by errors in inputing of or preshaping the data. Check model.df_wide_numeric to make sure data was imported correctly. >] What has happened? As the error says, it is due to the lack of data to make a prediction. You might think that it needs more data in the Weather table and training, but it has 8760 records… so what is wrong? If we want to forecast the weather for a large number of days, we need a lot of data in the model. Filling all the data into a table requires extensive training time and a very powerful PC. Therefore, since this is a basic tutorial, we will build a model for 3 days only. Don’t forget to remove the model WeatherForecastDaily before following the instructions. DROP MODEL WeatherForecastDaily I am not going to include all the images of those changes, but I will give you the instructions on what to do: CREATE TIME SERIES MODEL WeatherForecastDaily PREDICTING (Temperature, Humidity, WindSpeed, Pressure) BY (DatetimeNYC) FROM St_MLL.Weather USING {"Forward":3, "Frequency":"d"} TRAIN MODEL WeatherForecastDaily SELECT WITH PREDICTIONS (WeatherForecastDaily) * FROM St_MLL.WeatherTest Important Note The Docker container containers.intersystems.com/intersystems/iris-community-ml:latest-em is no longer available, so you have to use the iris-community container.

Are you curious about how to run Python scripts directly in your InterSystems IRIS or Caché terminal? 🤔 Good news it's easy! 😆 IRIS supports Embedded Python, allowing you to use Python interactively within its terminal environment. How to access the Python Shell? To launch the Python shell from the IRIS terminal, simply run the following command: do ##class(%SYS.Python).Shell() This opens an interactive Python shell inside the IRIS terminal. From here, you can write and run Python code just as you would in a normal Python environment. Exiting the Shell: >>> quit() This will exit the Python shell and return you to the ObjectScript prompt. USER>do ##class(%SYS.Python).Shell() Python 3.9.5 (default, May 31 2022, 12:35:47) [MSC v.1927 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32 Type quit() or Ctrl-D to exit this shell. >>> name = 'Vachan' >>> age = 25 >>> print('Name: ',name,'\nAge:',age) Name: Vachan Age: 25 >>> quit() This is a great way to leverage Python's capabilities within your InterSystems environment. Whether you're experimenting, testing logic, or integrating with ObjectScript, the embedded Python shell makes it fast and flexible. Enjoy Coding! 👨‍💻 You can use :py alias to connect the python shell in IRIS terminal as well. Thanks! It's a cool article 😄 I'm gonna try it. Thanks! that worked! If you use the InterSystems CLI vis your OS shell, you can also simply run: #iris python instancename See the iris command docs (at least for some OSs).

Talking about Global Masters and quizzes, you can't skip the most popular reward 😁 No summit goes by without someone showing me their Developer Community socks 🤣 As you can see, the Brazilian DC team is very happy: @Rochael.Ribeiro, @Juliana.MatsuzakiModesto. @Danusa.Ferreira and @Heloisa.Paiva we really missed you - with you, the Portuguese Developer Community team would've been complete! This was almost the end of the Ready 2025 and it's the end of my story. The rumor is, the next summit will take place in April in Washington, D.C. Put it in your calendar not to double book, you know you want to! See you next year! Great event, fantastic DC events and very happy to meet persons that make our community Thanks @Irène.Mykhailova for the sharing.This year’s event was an incredible opportunity to meet community heroes, explore cutting-edge technologies, forge meaningful connections, and exchange ideas with industry leaders. It has been very interesting and, as usual, keeping in touch with old fellows as well meeting new ones is the most valuable think of the conference. And, HEY! only 10 month to the next conference!Washington DC from 27th to 29th of April! Please note that next conference will start with the Welcome Reception on Monday (usually Sunday). I'm looking forward to meet you all in DC! 😊 Great team!!!I've missed you all so much this year, I hope to see you all next year. What an incredible event! 🙌 It was so great to see such a strong presence of our amazing Developer Community — so many familiar faces and so many new ones too! Thanks to everyone who made this experience so special. Already looking forward to next year! 😊 It was very good to see you all !!!!! It was so great to see you and being your neighbors again at the Tech Exchange pavilion! It was a great event full of interesting info and people! So nice! Tks for the reminder 😉 can't wait for your presentation's recording to be available! It broke my heart to have had to miss it.

Hi Community! I'm super excited to be your on-the-ground reporter for the biggest developer event of the year - InterSystems Ready 2025! As you may know from previous years, our global summits are always exciting, exhilarating, and packed with valuable knowledge, innovative ideas, and exciting news from InterSystems. This year is no different. But let's not get ahead of ourselves and start from the beginning. Pre-summit day was, as usual, filled with fun and educational experiences. Those who enjoy playing golf (I among them) got up at the crack of dawn to tee off before the sun got too high up. Here's our dream team in action: @sween, @Mark.Bolinsky, @Anzelem.Sanyatwe, @Iryna.Mykhailova If you're interested, here are the results (but to save you the suspense, we didn't win 😭): The other group of sports enthusiasts went to play football (AKA soccer). And those who are differently inclined attended the different workshops planned for Sunday: AI-enabling your applications with InterSystems IRIS Discovering InterSystems products: a high-level overview Get ready to build with FHIR in InterSystems: visualizing data as FHIR resources From FHIR to insights: analytics with FHIRPath, SQL Builder, and Pandas Ready Startup Forum: insights, innovations & investment with InterSystems Yet another exciting yearly pre-summit event was a Women's meet-up and reception. Unfortunately, after playing 18 hot and humid holes, I didn't have enough time to make myself presentable before the beginning. Anyway, everyone was ready to begin the InterSystems Ready 2025 with a bang and turned up at the Welcome reception on time! Let me share a secret - it's always a highlight of the event to meet friends and colleagues after a long pause. @Iryna.Mykhailova, @Johan.Jacob7942, @Lorenzo.Scalese, @Adeline.Icard, @Guillaume.Rongier7183 And on Monday, the main event began with the keynote presentation from Terry Ragon, CEO & Founder of InterSystems, with a warm welcome, highlighting InterSystems' dedication to creating technology that truly matters during a time of fast change. He discussed the great promise of AI and data platforms to enhance healthcare and emphasized the importance of making a tangible difference, rather than merely following trends. Later on, there was a panel discussion moderated by Jennifer Eaton between @Donald.Woodlock, Scott Gnau, and Tim Ferris on the future of healthcare. Right before lunch was the best presentation of the day! And it was the best because it mentioned the Developer Community. And to share the excitement of it with you, here's a short clip from it: And to make your day, here are a couple of photos of one of the presenters, @Randy.Pallotta The AI did a good job, or did it 😁 Anyway, after lunch, our Developer Community booth at the Tech Exchange was ready to roll. All our cool prizes and games were out and ready to amaze and entertain our guests! And they soon came. At the same time, in the hallway outside the Tech Exchange, the startups were doing their presentations. Here's a photo from the SerenityGPT presentation about their software, which utilizes IRIS Vector search to maximize the potential of clinical data. And all the while, there were interesting presentations and use-cases of InterSystems technology from InterSystems colleagues and guests: Moreover, there's a big screen for presentations in Tech Exchange, so don't miss it! This very long and exciting day ended on a really high note - the Ready Games at the Demos and Drinks! There were many great demos from which the guests had to choose the winners — two runner-ups in each category and two winners, for Most Innovative and Most Likely to Use. Btw, the winners of the Most Likely to Use category are from Lead North, who brought with them the coolest stickers ever: So, if you're at the Ready 2025 and haven't yet picked up a cute sticker, don't miss your chance to get one (or more) and to talk to @Andre and his colleagues! Swing by the Partner Pavilion (which starts outside the Tech Exchange) and you will definitely find something you like. So this is it about the first 1.5 days of the Ready 2025. Look out for a new recap tomorrow of the rest of it. And let me tell you, it is unforgettable!

Hi, Community! Are you building applications in a healthcare setting? See how InterSystems FHIR Server can help: What Is InterSystems FHIR Server? InterSystems Product Manager @Elijah.Cotterrell explains how InterSystems FHIR Server helps you store, manage, and query healthcare data. In a brief demo, Elijah shows how you can: Deploy a FHIR server. Configure OAuth authentication. You will also learn about two key tools—the Bulk FHIR Coordinator and FHIR SQL Builder—which allow you to scale your applications and perform analytics!

Hi Community, While writing an article yesterday, I realized I was so busy with people who came to the Developer Community table at the Tech Exchange that I forgot to take photos for you. Luckily, I realized the error of my ways and corrected my behavior accordingly 😉 So, let's look at what happened on Tuesday at the InterSystems Ready 2025! It began with a speech of Scott Gnau about the approach and architecture of InterSystems Data Platform and how it is different from all other DBMSs: Afterwards, @Tom.Woodfin and Peter Lesperance dove into the details of using the novelties of IRIS in Epic: Then, @Gokhan.Uluderya talked about data in AI and how important it is to have good data to be able to apply GenAI or Vector Search to it: @Jeffrey.Fried picked up this topic and went into more detail about InterSystems GenAI strategy: Daniel Franko summed up the tools that are available to developers of IRIS for Health: After lunch most of the participants went on to the sessions or Tech Exchange. For example, @Raj.Singh5479 dropped by our table and we talked about the current Ideas Contest @Henrique, @henry, @Dean.Andrews2971 and @Guilherme.Silva came up to us as well: @Lorenzo.Scalese, @Dean.Andrews2971 , @DKG @Sergei.Shutov3787, @Anastasia.Dyubaylo, @Vishal.Pallerla @Iryna.Mykhailova, @Anastasia.Dyubaylo, @Robert.Kuszewski @Henrique, @Benjamin.DeBoe, @Anastasia.Dyubaylo, @Enrico.Parisi, @henry, @Iryna.Mykhailova, @José.Pereira The "Musketeers" (@henry, @Henrique,@José.Pereira) with @Anastasia.Dyubaylo @Dean.Andrews2971, Mariam Makhmutova, @Anastasia.Dyubaylo, @DKG @Muhammad.Waseem, @Guillaume.Rongier7183, @Anastasia.Dyubaylo, @Oliver.Wilms @DKG, @Anastasia.Dyubaylo, @Benjamin.Spead, @tomd This year to make it more interesting, for our developer guests we prepared a special challenge - a quiz from Global Masters! So, here are @Derek.Robinson, @Myles.Collins and @Patrick.Sulin7198 trying to get all 5 answers correctly: In the next article, you will learn who beat the challenge! While there was all this excitement at the Developer Community table, there were presentations at the big screen in the Tech Exchange, for example from @Brett.Saviano about VS Code: And presentations on smaller tables, for example, from @Guillaume.Rongier7183: Outside the Tech Exchange, the startups were making their presentations. For example, SerenityGPT which created our wonderful DC AI Bot and DC AI Chat: And in the evening we went to the Universal City Walk and were treated to the concert of Integrity Check, which was a blast! After the concert, we had the pleasure of the company of the guitar player, aka @Randy.Pallotta Afterwards, I went to roam and met up with @Dean.Andrews2971, @Adeline.Icard, @Anastasia.Dyubaylo, and @Guillaume.Rongier7183: We finished the day with a rousing game of Table shuffleboard - ladies (@Adeline.Icard, @Anastasia.Dyubaylo, and me) vs gentlemen (@Guillaume.Rongier7183, @Jeffrey.Fried, @Eduard.Lebedyuk). Guess in the comments who won 😁 All in all, we had a wonderful time at the Universal, which was a great end to a great day.

Hello everyone, I would like to ask whether it is possible to run InterSystems API manager (IAM) on OpenShift. Is there some documentation describing how to do it? I was searching the forum as well as the internet and I have not found much unfortunately. Any hints would be highly appreciated. Best regards Martin Zukal
