Re:Lego, 3D EDA, The Darkness fun with optimization on Monday May 13, 2024 @12:34PM (#40345147)
We walk through our LEGO data from Rebrickable.com and - using GraphXR for exploratory data analysis (EDA) - we translate its schema into an Entity Relationship Diagram, yielding our optimization app’s main entities! (We also meet Legolas Greenleaf, Frankie Poullain and The Darkness …)
Thank you Kyle! Dropping the third video today, appreciate your interest and all suggestions on how to make this thing better.
@bobajeff, you are right on.
@pimlottc, thank you for the question, and yes: this series is deeply to do with the LEGO part and set universe. The optimization model's function is "Find the maximum number of sets completable with a user’s part inventory" and the data involved in the search is : SETS, THEMES, PARTS, COLORS, MATERIALS, (PART)CATEGORIES, PART-RELATIONSHIPS, etc.

P.S. sorry to be so late to reply here folks! Martin Laskowski (the dude making the videos).
