Title: Integrating Arize Phoenix and Apache Iceberg for Local Telemetry Data Management and Querying

Authors: Don Branson

---

Abstract

In modern data observability workflows, capturing and managing telemetry data is crucial for debugging and improving machine learning systems. This paper demonstrates the integration of Arize Phoenix, an open-source observability platform, with Apache Iceberg, a high-performance table format for data lakes, to create a scalable and efficient local telemetry data management and querying system. We present a step-by-step implementation for capturing telemetry data as Parquet files using Arize Phoenix on a local system and using Apache Iceberg to enable schema evolution, time travel, and efficient queries. This solution bridges the gap between data observability and data lake management for machine learning monitoring.

A Hypothetical Medium Post...

I created a cool prototype for airline data last year but misplaced the code, so I recently created this "synthetic" prototype stringing together a few excerpts from old ChatGPT messages and simple prompt engineering.

I haven't found the datasource yet, but going through the process has been such a gift. I knew these concepts were becoming essential again and this helped to both remember key concepts AND generate excitement around new opportunities.

Reminds me of Hypothetical Document Embeddings... appparently HyDE can help me retrieve stuff from long term memory too.

Feel free to have a laugh at my expense!

Emerging Standards and Trends in Drug Repurposing Bioinformatics: Explainable AI, Data Privacy, and Cloud-Based Advancements in 2024

Abstract

Traditional drug discovery is a costly and time-consuming process. Drug repurposing offers a promising alternative by seeking new therapeutic applications for existing drugs. In 2024, bioinformatics has become essential to drug repurposing, integrating multi-omics data, computational models, and knowledge bases to accelerate this process. This report explores the current bioinformatics standards in drug repurposing, highlighting the growing importance of explainable AI, data privacy, cloud computing, and standardized ontologies. We examine key players in this field, including government agencies, philanthropic organizations, and industry stakeholders, and detail the vital tools propelling data integration and workflow efficiency.

Investigating Potential Drug Targets for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer through STITCH Database Analysis

Purpose

The aim of this study is to identify potential drug targets and repurposing opportunities by analyzing interactions between key proteins involved in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) pathways, focusing on the inhibition of aberrant signaling in cancer therapy.

Hypothesis Formulation

• Initial Hypothesis: Targeting key nodes in the Ras, PI3K-Akt, Cell Cycle, p53, and Retinoid signaling pathways may provide effective therapeutic strategies for NSCLC by inhibiting cancer cell proliferation and survival.

Leveraging STRING and STITCH APIs for White Paper Insights: A Structured Approach

This document provides a structured approach to utilizing the STRING and STITCH APIs for retrieving protein-protein and chemical-protein interaction data, enriching the findings of your white paper on drug response assessment in lung cancer, particularly in the context of TP53 and RB1 pathways.

Understanding the APIs

• STRING (Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins):
  STRING is a database and web resource dedicated to protein-protein interactions, including both known and predicted interactions. It integrates data from multiple sources, such as experimental repositories, computational prediction methods, and public text collections.

• STITCH (Search Tool for Interactions of Chemicals):
