Artist got automated

Here is my first Tensorflow run to convert images to different styles of famous painters I am using the code that is available at  https://github.com/lengstrom/fast-style-transfer It uses specific versions of below libraries !apt install ffmpeg !pip install tensorflow==0.12.1 !pip install numpy==1.11.2 !pip install scipy==0.18.1 !pip install pillow==3.4.2 I started with latest version and that triggered failure after failure. If you are like me, add below changes to their respective files #This is to make tensorflow behave as if it is in v1 File : evaluate.py and ./src/transform.py import tensorflow.compat.v1 as tf tf.disable_v2_behavior() #Image functions are removed from scipy.misc module. so use imageio instead import imageio scipy.misc.imsave(out_path, img) --> imageio.imwrite(out_path, img) img = scipy.misc.imread(src, mode='RGB') --> img = imageio.imread(src, pilmode='RGB') Refer this post on more details on imageio changes Here is the ...

My algorithmic Trading journey

Like many i used to manually watch and trade stocks, ETFs. Its non-productive and involves our emotions in trading decisions. So I wanted to automate trading. Initially used Trailing Stop and Limit orders. But they can automate only in a prescribed way. I started thinking about a way to trade programatically, where we have more control. My quest pointed to Zipline, a python algorithmic trading library. It support backtesting (testing algorithm with historic data) and most importantly supports live trading In this blog, I will walk you through my algorithmic trading journey. Zipline Installation From  https://www.zipline.io/index.html , I see it only supports python 2.7 or Python 3.5 Since python 2 was sun set on Jan 1 2020, there is no point in trying it. I went ahead with Python 3. For programming, installed latest Ubuntu 19.10 in a virtual machine . Ubuntu 19.10 comes bundled with Python 3.7.5. You can check your python version by typing python3  -V ...
