Abstract This paper introduces the experimental designs and outputs of Diagnostic, Evaluation Characterization Klima (DECK), historical, Scenario Model Intercomparison Project (MIP), Paleoclimate MIP (PMIP) experiments from Nanjing University Information Science Technology Earth System version 3 (NESM3). Results show that NESM3 reasonably simulates modern climate major internal modes variabilit...

In this paper we consider models for predicting the number of upvotes on a reddit submission. We examine features such as the number of votes, number of comments, time of submission, upvote history of users, images, and subreddits of the submission. We compare Support Vector Regression, Linear Regression, and Gradient Boosting Regression models for predicting the number of upvotes.
