Basic Git Commands and usage with GitHub

This post is a quick reference to the basic git commands and to use GitHub.

Get version: git --version

Starting the process

git init (Creating a git repository locally in the project folder)
git status (displays the state of the working directory and the staging area)

Configuring global username/email

git config --global user.name '<your name>'
git config --global user email '<your email>'

Project management

git add <filename> (adds a change in the working directory to the staging area)
git add *.<filetype> (adds changes in the files with specified filetype)
git add . (add all changes in the working directory to the staging area)
git rm --cached <filename> (remove a file from git repository)
git commit -m "<your message>" (save changes in the local repository)
git branch <branch name> (create a branch)
git checkout <branch name> (switch to specified branch)
git merge <branch name> (merge specified branch)

Remote project management

git remote add <remote name> <https://...> (adding remote repository)
git remote (status of remote repositories)
git push -u <remote name> <local branch> (push commits in the <local branch> to remote repo.)

Cracking the Black Box: Six Lenses for Understanding Deep Learning

Deep learning has revolutionised technology, giving us everything from uncannily smart chatbots to medical imaging that can spot diseases better than the human eye. Yet, for a long time, a central mystery has haunted the field: why do these enormous models work so well? According to classical statistics, a model with billions of parameters—far more than its training data—should fail spectacularly. It ought to memorise the data, noise and all, and be unable to generalise to new, unseen examples. But deep neural networks defy this wisdom. They generalise brilliantly. How do we explain this apparent magic? There isn't one single answer. Instead, researchers view the problem through several different theoretical "lenses." Here are six of the most important ones. 1. The Linearisation Lens: The Neural Tangent Kernel (NTK) ⚙️ The NTK offers a startling insight: what if, under the right conditions, a massively complex neural network is just a simple, linear model in disguise? The...

Webinar Series on Smart Grid and Microgrids by Smart Grid Research Lab, University of Moratuwa

This webinar series is created by the Smart Grid Research Lab of the University of Moratuwa , Sri Lanka. As a research assistant and a Ph.D. student, I had the honor of organizing the series. The webinar series is titled "Discussion forum on Smart Grid and Microgrids". It will cover the fundamentals of Smart Grid and Microgrids and the research areas of Smart Grid Research Lab. The webinars will be uploaded to YouTube and created as a playlist . Check out the introduction to the webinar series and the lab by Prof. K. T. M. U. Hemapala.

Research on Machine Learning applications in Smart Grid & Microgrids

Smart grids and microgrids are the future of the power system we use today. Integrating the power systems with communication devices and adding a data layer has its perks for power system operators as well as the consumers. This novel power system will generate enormous amounts of data with its maturity. As researchers, it is quite fascinating for us since this means that we get to combine two disciplines, Machine Learning & Power Systems. In this blog post, I will list all the possible applications that I come across of machine learning in power systems. Update: I will start to categorize them into, Microgrid research Energy forecasting Smart grid research Microgrid research Multi-agent systems for microgrid control [ link ] Reinforcement learning for microgrid energy management Detect security breaches Fault detection and classification Microgrid islanding detection Multi-agent reinforcement learning for microgrid control Energy forecasting research Solar energy forecasting ...
