How to fix the USB when it lost space

Sometimes, there is not much things in your usb. And it shows that there is no much space left in your usb.  Your USB lost space. But it can be fixed.

First move the things in your USB to another place. The steps here will make things in USB lost.

In a windows environment, follow the steps

1. In the start menu, search for and launch diskpart.
2. Type list disk to see all current disk volumes on your system,
3. Plug in the USB and type list disk. Note the newly listed volume, that's your USB's.
4. Type select disk#, where # is your USB's volume number.
5. Type Clean to wipe the volume of alll partitions.
6. Type create partition primary to make a new partition with all unallocated space.
7. type exit to finish.

When I tried to fix my USB, I tried steps 4,5 twice. It did not work at the first time.

When I tried to use my USB, it showed that I need to format the USB. And I formatted the USB. It got back to normal.

Using ubuntu, and sometimes it freezes and crashes, how I fixed it

One my operation systems is ubuntu.
sometimes it freezes and crashes.
And I found that most of the time, the browsers freeze. I used firefox and chrome.
And I look for some other browsers. And I found opera and chromium.
I tried to install opera.
I downloaded opera deb file. And tried to install deb.
I tried the command first:

sudo apt install ...deb

not working

Then I tried sudo dpkg -i xxx.deb

works.



finally installed opera. now it seems no crashes or freezes

Opera seems stable. But it does not support some videos.

To install chromium, I used
sudo apt install -y chromium-browser

And I installed it. chromium seems not so stable as opera.

how to fix R's error Error: variables "xxx" were specified with different types from the fit

In R's predicting modeling, sometimes there is an error:

 Error: variables ‘xxx"  were specified with different types from the fit

How to fix it?

Mainly the reason for it is that in the data where we did the predicting  the data type for some variables are different from the data type for some variables from the modeling.

You can check the data types in the data where we will do the predicting.

Once I found that , there were some quotes in the data which made the data into character. Then I unquoted the data and made the data types into numerical. problem solved.

Sample script:

newData=noquote(newData)

newData$in_dream1<-as.numeric(newData$in_dream1)
newData$selected_by1<-as.numeric(newData$selected_by1)
newData$form1<-as.numeric(newData$form1)
newData$points_game1<-as.numeric(newData$points_game1)
newData$element_type1<-as.factor(newData$element_type1)

Things about classification AUC, ROC, recall, precision, sensitivity, specificity and F1

Classification methods predict the probability of the values of  a categorical  responsible variable  given some predictors.

There are a lot of classification methods. logistic, support vector machine, random forest

In R, there is a package called caret , classification and regression training . There are a lot of built-in classification methods :

https://rdrr.io/cran/caret/man/models.html

To measure the effectiveness of a classification method, there are some metrics :

AUC, ROC, recall, precision, sensitivity, specificity and F1

1.  ROC and AUC

A receiver operating characteristic curve or ROC curve, is a graphical plot that illustrates the diagnostic ability of binary classifier system as its discrimination threshold is varied.

The ROC curve is created by plotting the true positive rate against the false positive rate at various threshold settings. True positive rate is also known as sensitivity, recall or probability of detection. The false positive rate is also known as probability of false alarm, and can be calculated as (1-specificity).  It can also be thought of as a plot of the power as a function of the Type I Error of the decision rule.

AUC means area under the ROC curve. It is a value between 0 and 1.  The closer AUC is to 1, the more accurate the classification prediction is.


2. Recall, precision , sensitivity , specificity , F1





The values are from confusion matrix

precision=true positive/(true positive + false positive)

recall ( sensitivity) =true positive /(true positive + false negative)

specificity =true negative /(true negative + false positive)

F1 Score = 2*(Recall * Precision) / (Recall + Precision)

High recall and high precision show that the classifier is returning accurate  results ( high precision ) , as well as returning a majority of all positive results ( high recall).

specificity is the true negative rate. high specificity means that the classifier is retuning a majority of all negative results.
