2017-01-30: Optimized enclosing circle algorithm through memoization. Developed script to read addresses from accelerator data and return latitude and longitude coordinates.
Circle project for VC data will end up being a joint project to join accelerator data.
Pull descriptions for VC. Founders of accelerators in linkedin. LinkedIn cannot be caught(pretend to not be a bot). Can eventually get academic backgrounds through linkedin.
NLP Projects, Description Classifier.
2/21/2017 14:30- 17:15: Continued to download geocoded data for VC Data as part of the [http://mcnair.bakerinstitute.org/wiki/Enclosing_Circle_Algorithm Enclosing Circle Algorithm] Project. Researched into C++ Compilers for Python so that the Enclosing Circle Algorithm could be wrapped in C. Found a recommended one [https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44266 here].
