Abstract
In this paper we are concerned with the practical issues of working with data sets common to finance, statistics, and other related fields. pandas is a new library which aims to facilitate working with these data sets and to provide a set of fundamental building blocks for implementing statistical models. We will discuss specific design issues encountered in the course of developing pandas with relevant examples and some comparisons with the R language. We conclude by discussing possible future directions for statistical computing and data analysis using Python.

Short-term runoff prediction with GRU and LSTM networks without requiring time step optimization during sample generation

TL;DR: Two popular variants of Recurrent Neural Network named Long Short-Term Memory and Gated Recurrent Unit networks were employed to develop new data-driven flood forecasting models, showing that GRU models perform equally well as LSTM models and GRU may be the preferred method in short term runoff predictions.
