Hi community,

I created an app to generate vCard and QR Codes to patient data. This app is in the IRIS for Health contest, and I have more 14 days to improve the app with more features. What you suggest to my app:

Link to the app: https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/QR-FHIR

In the past, reading information from a bar code was limited to a simple alphanumeric code. The creation of a bar code with more than one dimension (2D), especially the QR Code, allowed to increase the amount and variety of data stored in a bar code. While conventional bar codes are capable of storing a maximum of approximately 20 digits, the QR Code is capable of handling several tens to hundreds of times more information. This revolutionized the markets. Now QR codes are everywhere and can be very useful for storing textual, numeric, alphanumeric and even binary data.This article and the

Hi Community!

We're pleased to invite you to the Online Meetup with the Winners of the InterSystems IRIS AI Programming Contest!

Date & Time: Friday, July 24, 2020 – 11:00 EDT

What awaits you at this virtual Meetup? 

• Our winners' bios.
• Short demos on their applications.

Hi Developers!

The InterSystems IRIS AI Contest is over. Thank you all for participating in our IRIS AI Competition!

And now it's time to announce the winners! 

A storm of applause goes to these developers and their applications:

Hey Developers!

This week is a voting week for the InterSystems IRIS AI Programming Contest!

So, it's time to give your vote to the best AI- and ML-enabled solution on InterSystems IRIS!

🔥 You decide: VOTING IS HERE 🔥

How to vote? This is easy: you will have one vote, and your vote goes either in Experts Nomination or in Community Nomination.

Currently, the process of using machine learning is difficult and requires excessive consumption of data scientist services. AutoML technology was created to assist organizations in reducing this complexity and the dependence on specialized ML personnel.

AutoML allows the user to point to a data set, select the subject of interest (feature) and set the variables that affect the subject (labels). From there, the user informs the model name and then creates his predictive or data classification model based on machine learning.

Hi Developers,

Please welcome the new video, specially recorded by @José Pereira for the InterSystems IRIS AI Programming Contest: 

⏯ Monitoring your ML model with IntegratedML

Hi Community,

Please welcome the new video, specially recorded by @Renato Banzai for the InterSystems IRIS AI Programming Contest: 

⏯ IRIS ML Suite Demo

Following up the previous part, it's time to take advantages for IntegratedML VALIDATION MODEL statement, to provide information in order to monitor your ML models. You can watch it in action here

The code presented here was derived from examples provided by either InterSystems IntegragedML Template or IRIS documentation, my contribution was mainly mashing up such codes. It's a simple example intended to be a start for discussions and future works.

A few months ago, I read this interesting article from MIT Technology Review, explaing how COVID-19 pandemic are issuing challenges to IT teams worldwide regarding their machine learning (ML) systems.

Such article inspire me to think about how to deal with performance issues after a ML model was deployed.

I simulated a simple performance issue scenario in an Open Exchange technology example application - iris-integratedml-monitor-example, which is competing in the InterSystems IRIS AI Contest. Please, after read this article, you can check it out and, if you like it, vote for me! :)

Hey Developers,

New "Coding Talk" video was specially recorded by @Yuri Marx for the InterSystems IRIS AI Programming Contest: 

⏯ SAPPHIRE - AutoML UI to InterSystems IntegratedML

Hi guys,

I released the Sapphire - Auto ML UI to IntegratedML in first version. This week we will release more features. At moment you can create your models.

New features to the next 3 days: model training, csv import, model validate and model performance report.

Enjoy!

Hey Developers! 

Join our next competition in creating open-source solutions using InterSystems IRIS Data Platform! Please welcome:

➡️ InterSystems IRIS AI Programming Contest ⬅️

Duration: June 29 – July 19, 2020. 

Hi everyone. 
We are a team of company  "Constructor" and we develop cutting edge cartographic systems. Recently the amount of image data skyrocketed so we want to give our users the ability to tie images to places automatically. For that, we want to use AI/ML technologies and we have a cool task for you.

Hi Developers!

Here in Developers Community, we have posts, which are categorized by tags. Tags - are specific topics, which relate to InterSystems products, InterSystems services, or any concept related to software development, deployment, or maintenance etc. 

Tag is a helpful thing because it gives the option to follow/subscribe to the tag, filter the search by the tag,  understand how popular or not unpopular the topic and more.

And we have a problem!

Actually two problems. The tags for the post are selected by the author of the post, and we have the following issues: the author chooses wrong tags for a post, and the post lacks proper tags.

And we think this problem could be solved with AI/ML approach and so we suggest you solve it during the InterSystems IRIS AI Contest.

Hi Community!

We are pleased to invite all the developers to the upcoming  InterSystems AI Programming Contest Kick-Off Webinar! The topic of this webinar is dedicated to the InterSystems IRIS AI Programming Contest.

On this webinar, we will talk and demo how to use IntegratedML and PythonGateway to build AI solutions using InterSystems IRIS.

⏯ IntegratedML-Template Demo

Hi developers!

We are starting InterSystems AI Programming Contest next week, and according to the rules, you can include some technology IRIS Features into your solutions, which will give you extra points in the voting.

Here are the technology bonuses for InterSystems AI Programming Contest!

1. IntegratedML usage - 2 expert vote points

IntegratedML is a new technology Introduced in InterSystems IRIS which you can use with InterSystems IRIS 2020.2 Advanced Analytics Preview release. IntegratedML:

• Gives users the ability to create, train, and deploy powerful models from simple SQL syntax without requiring data scientists.
• Wraps "best of breed" open source and proprietary "AutoML" frameworks including DataRobot.
• Focuses on easy deployment to IRIS, so you can easily add machine learning to your applications.

Learn more in IntegratedML Resource Guide.

You can use with IntegratedML template.

2. Python Gateway usage - 1 expert vote point

Python Gateway is an addon to InterSystems IRIS which gives you the way to use Python in InterSystems IRIS environment:

• Execute arbitrary Python code.
• Seamlessly transfer data from InterSystems IRIS into Python.
• Build intelligent Interoperability business processes with Python Interoperability Adapter.
• Save, examine, modify and restore Python context from InterSystems IRIS.

Learn more about Python Gateway.

You can use the Python Gateway template, which includes IntegratedML too.

3. Docker container - 1 expert vote point

The application gets a 'Docker container' bonus if it uses InterSystems IRIS  running in a docker container. 

Both templates, IntegratedML template and  Python Gateway template use docker so you can collect this bonus if you build your solution using these templates.

Or you can use any other Docker-based templates, published on Open Exchange.

Feel free to ask any questions about using the listed technologies.

Good luck in the competition!

What is the OData

OData (Open Data Protocol) is an ISO/IEC approved, OASIS standard that defines a set of best practices for building and consuming RESTful APIs. OData helps you focus on your business logic while building RESTful APIs without having to worry about the various approaches to define request and response headers, status codes, HTTP methods, URL conventions, media types, payload formats, query options, etc. OData also provides guidance for tracking changes, defining functions/actions for reusable procedures, and sending asynchronous/batch requests (source: OData.org).

Hi Developers!

We are pleased to announce the next competition in creating open-source solutions using InterSystems IRIS Data Platform!

Please welcome the third InterSystems IRIS Online Programming Contest for Developers!

And the topic for this contest is InterSystems IRIS Native API.

The contest will last three weeks: May 18 – June 7, 2020.
