That's great. I'm glad to see most recent datasets have a time series classification. Should be good for time-series databases domain. At the end, it comes down to what questions you want answered with available data. Take this one for example.

I know that the Bay Area police used to analyze power load curves to figure out people growing weed :)

I'm getting started in ML and yea it's a great combinations of datasets to play around with! Sad for the weed growers tho :(

Ah yes, this is the classic go-to place for machine learning data sets. I implemented my first ML models using these files, especially the famous iris data set[1] which is a good one for beginners. It was so exciting to see my first multi-layer perceptron working (and to compare its results to the simple perceptron or decision tree, etc, on the same data).

Staring out in ML here as well, and glad to know it's the goto place for starters/veterans :)

"Choose the data set." links to overview articles. Is there a link to actual datasets?
Re:UCI Machine Learning Repository by secondtimeuse on Monday January 18, 2016 @02:29PM (#10926318)
There is a satirical paper (look at names of the authors) on doing "Dataset selection".

The sarcasm is strong in this list :]

I love this so much. This is how I got my first intro to ML. I picked out the income data set andto my pleasant surprise, I got high predictive accuracy from a decision tree model in R. Gave me lots of confidence to try it out on other data sets.

A wonderful thing, I used it for a number of workshops in ML.
