“Paul Wagner and Till Speicher won State Competition “Jugend Forscht Hessen” and best Project award using neo4j” writes René Pickhardt.
From the post:
6 months of hard coding and supervising by me are over and end with a huge success! After analyzing 80 GB of Google ngrams data Paul and Till put them to a neo4j graph data base in order to make predictions for fast scentence completion. Today was the award ceremony and the two students from Darmstadt and Saarbrücken (respectivly) won the first place. Additionally the received the “beste schöpferische Arbeit” award. Which is the award for the best project in the entire competition (over all disciplines).
With their technology and the almost finnished android app typing will be revolutionized! While typing a scentence they are able to predict the next word with a recall of 67% creating a huge additional vallue for today’s smartphones.
So stay tuned of the upcomming news and the federal competition on May in Erfurt.
Not that you could tell that René is proud of the team! 😉
Curious: Can you use a Neo4j database to securely exchange messages? Display of messages triggered by series of tokens? Smart phone operator only knows their sequence and nothing more.
