Neural Networks

I'm really excited to announce our next Meet Up event. It will take place at Core studio in Rennweg Rennweg 12, 8001 Zurich. The is dedicated to everyone who likes the idea of exercising with the music, dancing and learning a bit of ballet. Find out how to set up the a great posture, learn about body conditioning as well as mind & body connection. Unlike at most general adult ballet classes we will show you how exercise with the precision and focus, getting great results. A great class for those that are just starting with ballet, or those who are conscious about using their body precisely and targeting correct muscle groups in order to achieve greater results. The class is structured as a unique combination of ballet exercises, Pilates, stretching and motivation. Open to all levels. You will need to bring a smile, some water and wear comfortable exercise cloths. The class will be 60 minutes which should be more than enough to get those muscles warmed up and you posturised ready for the next session. There's a small cost to cover the venue and facilities - CHF 40.- For more details about the training provider please see: https://www.balletbodysculpture.com/ballet-body-sculpture-classes-in-zurich

»Das ist die Geschichte des Musikers Johannes Elias Alder, der zweiundzwanzigjährig sein Leben zu Tode brachte, nachdem er beschlossen hatte, nicht mehr zu schlafen.« – Mit seinem Debütroman über das Leben und Sterben eines musikalischen Genies in einem österreichischen Bergdorf gelang Robert Schneider ein sensationeller Welterfolg, der in über 30 Sprachen übersetzt, erfolgreich verfilmt und zu einem Klassiker der Gegenwart wurde. Quelle: Klappentext Reclam Verlag "Schlafes Bruder" ist ein ferner Nachkomme deutscher Romantiker, Novalis, Tieck und E.T.A. Hoffmann haben Pate gestanden. Schneiders Sprache ist durchsetzt von altertümlich klingendem Deutsch, viel Dialekt, phantastischen Wortschöpfungen - und von einer Menge Pathos getränkt. Es ist ein sprachmächtiges Buch, das schon beim Erscheinen vor einem Vierteljahrhundert aus der Zeit gefallen schien. Heute wirkt dieser Effekt noch stärker. Das spricht nicht gegen den Roman. "Schlafes Bruder" von Robert Schneider entzieht sich den allermeisten Kategorien der deutschsprachigen Literatur der letzten Jahrzehnte - ein literarisches Unikum. Quelle: DW Kultur

And when you finally want to get some rest after a hard day at work, you can't sleep? Prolonged stress can seriously affect your health, even contributing to burnout. The good news, there are many ways to reduce stress and keep it at a reasonable level. Somatic exercises help you regulate your nervous system, calm your body down, and release built-up tension. The exercises are part of a body psychotherapy method created by doctor and therapist Alexander Lowen in the 1950s. We are guided by one key concept: our feelings are reflected in our bodies. And our bodies have the power to regulate our emotions and heal the mind. Remember the last time you were extremely stressed? Chances are high you experienced it on a physical level. Sensations such as: * Faster heartbeat * Headache * Tense shoulders * The feeling of something sitting in your throat * Stomach pains or nausea * A sense of having soft and weak legs These are just some of the examples of how our bodies react to stress. [Research ](https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5579396/)shows that chronic stress can have a negative impact on our heart, immune and digestive systems, hormones, and memory, to name but a few. According to a [review of various studies](https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8458738/) body psychotherapy approaches may bring about the reduction in people’s psychological distress. This workshop will give you easy tools to use when your stress levels rise. Deepening the practice at home will help you build stress resilience in the long run. The workshop will be especially useful for people who experience work-related stress but anyone can benefit from the practice. What you'll learn and try out: * You'll understand your own stress response better. * You'll pay more attention to early stress signs and will be able to react before stress hits you hard. * You'll try simple exercises to manage stress tension on the go, even during a coffee break at work, not just sitting on a meditation pillow in a quiet spa! You'll gain the tools to build your lifelong stress resilience. We’ll cover the most common body symptoms and experiment with relevant somatic (bioenergetic) exercises for stress. The workshop is open to participants of all genders. **Your Facilitator** Anka Grzywacz is a psychologist and body psychotherapist in training (final year of a 4.5-year training). She has extensive experience and 1.5 years of training in the facilitation of psychological workshops. She is also a sex therapist.: [TICKETS FOR THIS EVENT ARE SOLD VIA EVERSPORTS](https://www.eversports.ch/org/activity/a3ac0cae-7fe8-4a6d-ae56-3961e0214445)

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!
