Microsoft Azure Machine Learning goes the opposite route, streamlining existing data mining methodology for fast results and integration with MS's other cloud services. Zachary Chase Lipton is a PhD student in the Computer Science Engineering department at the University of California, San Diego.his product follows on Microsoft's Azure Machine Learning service, which provides cloud-based machine learning solutions. Interested to see how the offerings compare, I set up accounts with both services and set out to explore several datasets.
The point of land on the river's right descending bank is, and has historically been, called Algiers Point. Just off this point is where the Mississippi River is at its deepest, approximately 60 meters (200 ft) deep. This depth varies from year to year as the river alternately scours and deposits silt. A U.S. Coast Guard aid to navigation, Algiers Point Light 95, marks the point.
With its source Lake Itasca at 1475 feet (450 m) above sea level in Itasca State Park in northern Minnesota, the river falls to 725 feet (220 m) just below Saint Anthony Falls in Minneapolis. The Mississippi is joined by the Illinois River and the Missouri River at Saint Louis, and by the Ohio at Cairo, Illinois. The Arkansas River joins the Mississippi in the state of Arkansas. The Atchafalaya River in Louisiana is a major distributary of the Mississippi. The Mississippi River, looking south toward the city of St. Louis.(courtesy USGS)
