Anyway, I wrote this post as a precursor to a more substantial set of writings explaining how to practically use these upcoming languages. Most of what I am trying to show here is that while we use specialized algorithms for most of our machine learning at this moment, it is only a temporary solution before it becomes feasible to just specify your models in one of these languages. The point of the code is to show that many really complicated models with high specialized libraries for just them is less than 10 lines of code in this framework.
For a really good introduction to this topic I recommend of Josh Tenenbaum's Growing a Mind talks, http://videolectures.net/aaai2012_tenenbaum_grow_mind/ http://videolectures.net/aaai2012_tenenbaum_grow_mind/
I never realized this article would be read by regular folks and am incredibly confused why something I wrote 6 months ago is suddenly all over the internet now.
- apw 14y agoThis is an amazing talk by Tenenbaum. Thank you for posting it! I'd really like to subscribe to your blog/site so I can read your more substantial set of writings as they appear -- but I can't seem to find the appropriate RSS or ATOM feed on your site. Am I missing something?
- cf 14y agoYou can subscribe with http://zinkov.com/rss.xml http://zinkov.com/rss.xml. I get this question a lot, what's the standard way this is solved?
- icebraining 14y agoYou can enable RSS auto-discovery by adding a tag to your HTML: <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS Feed" href="http://zinkov.com/rss.xml" /> Any decent RSS reader (e.g. Google Reader, TTRSS) would then detect the feed if the user tried to subscribe to your homepage. Some browsers and browser extensions also provide a one-click subscribe button based on that tag. It's also common to just put a visible link somewhere on the page, since not everyone knows about auto-discovery.
- apw 14y agoThank you. I subscribed. The usual practice seems to be to put a link to the rss feed (the one you just gave) somewhere on the archive page or at the top of each post page. Thanks again.
