World News

Below is a map of the world where if you mouse over each country you get the top news story that day. Each top story has been translated, summarised, and then sentiment analysed (using Vader). The Colours indicate the sentiment,so Red is a Negative sentiment, Blue is neutral, and Green is positive. This means whatever type of news you want to read, or if you want to just expand your horizons, you can. A list of website sources can be found on github, if you have suggestions for more reliable sources, email me

Monte Carlo Simulation

There are far better explanations online as to how the Monte Carlo simulation works. But I'll do a very short summarised version here. Using the knowledge that the area of a Circle = 4 π r 2 and that the area of a Square = 2r 2, then we can say that the area of the Circle over the Area of the Square is equal to 4(Points in Cirlce/Points in Square);. Below is a visualisation showing the estimated value of π based on how many points you add, you can change the number of points and see how it changes. The more points the more accurate it gets, but at a certain point the computational cost outweighs the benefits. It is worth noting I set the value of the Radius to 2, as it demostrates differences better.

Word-2-Vec

Below is a form you can use to interact with my Word-2-Vec model. The model is trained using Wikipedia Abstracts. NLP cleaning has been run on the abstracts that is different to gensims Word-2-Vec model. Positive values are what you want the results to be associated with, negative values are words you do not want the return words to be associated with. Please input the words seperated by commas, if you want to utilize bigrams, then connect the words with an "_", for example Davd_Attenborough would return the most similar results to instances where David Attenborough is mentioned.
