Open Avalanche Project – Using ML to Improve Avalanche Forecasting

The Goal of the Open Avalanche Project is to reduce avalanche-related deaths and impacts across the world. By using machine learning and experimentation to improve the accuracy and efficacy of avalanche forecasts, we are setting out to cover the world with the best Avalanche and Snow data possible.

“Cracking” Morse code with RNNs

Spoiler alert: Morse code doesn’t really need cracking. Its useful because messages can be sent using this code with minimal equipment, and I say it doesn’t need cracking because the code is well known and what the combinations of dots and dashes stand for is no secret. But, in theory, it is a substitution cipher — where each letter of the alphabet (and each digit) has some representation using dots and dashes, as illustrated below.
